I am a part of all that I have met;
Yet all experience is an arch wherethrough
Gleams that untravelled world, whose margin fades
For ever and for ever when I move.

Jeans and Jean Action

Jeans and Jean Action: a class studying the, ultimately revolutionary, impact of the worldwide denim craze from 1960s to present.*

Oh, wait, you mean it was GENES and Gene Action...?

I had my two hardest exams this past week - Celtic Civ + Genes and Gene Action. That means I have a nice two-and-a-half week break before my easiest, German, on May 21st. After spending the past two weeks essentially locked in my room or the library studying, my mind can barely comprehend this freedom.

It's hard to believe I head home in about three weeks, though I feel like I'm ready to go back to my friends and family in MN. A semester was the perfect amount of time to be in Edinburgh. In about an hour I'm off to the train station to begin my travels through England. I haven't had the opportunity to spend much time there, apart from my Lake District trip and homestay, so I'm really looking forward to seeing more.

I don't think I'll have the time nor the willpower for an update before I get back for my last exam, so see you in a few weeks.

Perhaps literally.
