The bus I took last night left at 8:30pm and the shuttle picked me up at 7 from the tourism office. For some reason, most Turkish buses have stewardesses (I would be PC, but bus attendant just sounds bad)! We only had to get out of the bus once at the border, where it felt like it was 10 degrees below. I got into Sofia around 6:25am and found a bus leaving for Blagoevgrad at 6:40. I finally made it back to Skapto around 8:30 and just dumped all my stuff on the floor. I uploaded, tagged, and described my 231 pictures seeing that I had time for it. I ordered pizza from retro for the first time on my own, and after some confusion I got my food around 12:20. I think i'm going to lay all my presents out that i've bought so far so that i can see who i still have to buy for. I don't have that many people left, so it shouldn't be too hard. Speaking of presents, i found out today that mom, dad, and kari are going w/ on a diving trip to Hondorus. I would be sore about it, but this means that i'm really the only person out of the four of us getting any real presents for christmas, lol.
My postcard reached Frau Burgess, my H.S. german teacher the other day, she was happy about it. Now we just have to see how much longer it takes Carolyn's package to reach her, seeing that I sent the card and the package on the same day.
Hopefully I will be able to get a hold of the coach/president of the water polo team that was suggested for me tomorrow. I visibly lost a little weight after my trip and my stomach definitely shrank a little, nothing a weeks worth of canteen can't fix.
I have 3 tests this week. Falsifications doesn't really matter because i've read everything and grades don't really matter there. Marketing was pretty easy last time, but still have to study for the one, but german is going to be the toughest. I haven't really taken a midterm at this level of a language before, so I'm just going to have to practice as much as possible until wed.
It's kind of funny, towards the end of my trip this week, I missed AUBG like a second home. Funny how an uncomfortable bed, schoolwork and tests can be welcoming thoughts.
