My weekend was spent frantically preparing for a presentation, doing chores, and dealing with a few odd tasks. And I literally spent all of Sunday in the library, how disgusting! I didn't even know it was open on a Sunday... Want to hear the even sadder part? The place was absolutely mobbed - basically every computer was occupied. Apparently Erasmus students have no life...including myself. =P
Okay, I'm exaggerating. Quite a bit actually. But this university is very tough. I love it though!
After the presentation on Monday, I quickly hotfooted it to the gym to burn off all my nervous energy and frustration. It was very productive: I was an absolute machine in that gym, I even tried some of the scary weight machines. Not quite sure how I felt about those, but it wasn't too bad. Plus, I was on the treadmill for 25 minutes!! Result.
I also had a wee shopping venture this week. Decided to get myself a wee bargin jumper, shoes and a few toiletries. I desperately needed to buy myself a new pair of boots for when the winter weather decides to descend on Rotterdam. Especially since my current ones are about three years old and not even nearly watertight! But wee Mama Flem knows how much I hate shoe shopping (it's always a nightmare), so she decided to give me a little incentive by donating money towards them. Cheers mum! Personally, I think I did rather well! Although a lovely Dutch girl had to help me reach them in the shop, and we ended up bringing half the shelf down in our quest...oops. So, bedankt to that random girl; the shoes fit perfectly, and thanks for humouring my dreadful attempt to say 'size 40' in Dutch! At least I tried... =D
