Just about five minutes ago I had a rather cheesy moment while folding my laundry, and I don't mean like the one I had the other day with Ivonne when we ate an entire block of Port Salut. The fact that there's only a week of class left has tricked me into thinking I only have a week left in Edinburgh and consequently I've spent the last few days in a panic over having to do ALL OF THE THINGS! in a VERY SHORT AMOUNT OF TIME! Not only should I be writing an essay, researching for my review article, figuring out my summer plans, and booking train tickets, there's a science festival going on and it seems that I all of a sudden have friends and social commitments. So while I was hanging up my socks to dry and trying to keep my heart rate at a healthy level, Don't Stop started (haha) playing on my computer and I realized how incredibly silly it is that I'm stressing out over not having enough time to enjoy life. That was way more inspirational in my head but I suppose it was inevitable that I would eventually write a bad blog post. The point is that for a while now I've been trying to get better at both living in the present and taking action more often because I have a tendency to overanalyze the living shit out of every detail of everything and end up doing nothing.
In other news, it's officially been spring for more than a few days and it's still snowing. Also, I've been hosting several Berkeley friends over the last few days and have made a couple of American exchange student friends (finally), so details of trips to Glasgow, the Highlands, Loch Ness, and other things like deep fried Mars bars and the National Portrait Gallery may be coming soon to a blog near you. More likely I will post pictures but I promise they will be the pretty ones.
