Marveling…at the fact that it is my last week of school, and at this time next week I will be vacationing with my parents in Austria and Germany!
Loving…all the love I am feeling from my students and their families during my last week of school. I have been so lucky to have found this job, and I will miss these kids like crazy.
Instagramming…the fun things I am doing with my cousin! Did I mention she’s in town and that I’m over the moon about it? And not just because we’ve had beer in caves on two separate occasions?
Trying…to keep up. The last few weeks have been so busy, I’ve forgotten birthdays, I’ve barely returned any emails, I’m barely getting two posts up a week and not even commenting on my favorite blogs, sleeping less, and nobody has done a dish in our house in at least three days.
Craving…pina coladas. Time for a beach trip, maybe?
Reading…a very funny series by chick-lit (oh how I hate that term) queen Meg Cabot about Heather Wells and her job at Death Dorm. Funny, light, and honest–just what I need when I have ten minutes to spare for reading each night before I pass out!
Watching…not much these days, but I’ve been occasionally sneaking in episodes of an old favorite, Psych. We also just finished watching Green Wing, introduced to us by our British friend (and fellow teacher). I admit at times I was flummoxed by that English sense of humor–especially the ending of the show–but mostly it was really fun.
Missing…my summer closet. I packed quite well for the winter/cold season here in Europe, but my summer clothes are severely lacking, so most of the time, I’m way over dressed and sweaty. #professional and #attractive.
Looking forward to…my parents’ arrival! In just a few hours!! It’s such a bittersweet week for me–I’m so excited for them to arrive, but so sad to end classes, yet also relieved to be less busy.
Hoping…to enjoy every moment we have left in Prague.
Recovering…from so much beer consumption this past week. Between brewery tours and monasteries and beer gardens, I have consumed more than I should. It’s just so hard to care sometimes…
Confessing…that I’ve really been in a busy daze these last few weeks, like a hamster on the wheel, and have not been living in the moment at all.
Wondering…when was the last time I washed my hair. Don’t worry–I’m still showering, I haven’t given up hygiene completely–but my hair is so dry it’s best to only wash it about twice a week. Since I can’t quite remember when I last did that probably means I should do it again, eh?
Planning…so many things, as always, but the main things on my mind are, you guessed it, travels! Primarily our trip to Croatia in July/August (hopefully adding Slovenia and Montenegro to our itinerary…is this just crazy?) and trying to decide where to honeymoon. My life is tough right now ;).
Thinking about…how lucky I am that so much family and friends are visiting us in Prague, giving me a chance to show off my city!
Avoiding thinking about…leaving Prague way too soon and saying farewell to my fellow teachers and my amazing students. Cue tears.
