Holidaying at home

I went back home for just over 2 weeks in April, and was shocked how much it now felt like a holiday. I made the most of my free time to travel round the UK, visiting Gun crime capital Nottingham(Shottingham), my lovely friends in Southampton and my lovely Grandmother in Edinburgh. Was also lovely after months of accent abuse to be in a place where everyone speaks like me, home that is, not Edinburgh! Above is a photo of a beautifully rainy princess street! Got my lovely car back on the road, really missed driving more than anything else this year! Realised that maybe we are, in fact, just as ridiculous as the French during an evening at my students union, a Lady Gaga tribute, a sticky floor and a dancer's ass. Lovely. Been working hard to try and finish off the semester, had an exam on Wednesday in French, a 10 page exam in 2 hours... I feel sorry for the person who has to read it, pretty sure it made more or less no sense!! Also had old Erasmus friends visit which was lovely to see them, and helped the J-Dog battle the metro of Paris. She went mental. You still can't tame her. Not a hugely interesting blog post, my apologies for that. Its mainly because I haven't done a lot, this will be rectified over the next couple of weeks. Bring on Lazer tag, Chateau de Versailles, Arts metiers museum and general luls around Paris. Only 3 weeks left! :) a bientot, Will
