I’m BACK! The last couple of days in New Haven were spent wandering, talking, eating, drinking and packing. The weather was gorgeous the last night I was there. I headed out for drinks and pizza (and then drinks again) with a few of the friends I’d made over the course of the summer session. We had a blast. I also threw up from drinking too much, fell asleep with a throbbing headache, and woke up at 5 in the morning to have a packing party with my dear roommate to the Buena Vista Social Club. Good times.

Ended up writing my final paper on the plane. It was not a very pleasant experience. I don’t like being in the air for so long. I got to see both a sunset and a sunrise from my window seat though. They were breathtaking. There’s something magical about being above the clouds and looking at the vivid colours.

Right now, I’m attached to a secondary school that is a five-minute walk from my home for three weeks. Imagine me yesterday, less than a day from my return, reporting at 7am trying to look smart and be alert! GAH. Jetlag hello.

I keep having lovely flashbacks from the five weeks I was away. Almost too good to be true.
