Could've Should've Would've...
I could apologize for not posting in a while. I should explain that I have two posts started (and saved as drafts). And if I had more time, I would type out my adventures in Bath (including a story about the girl who SNORES louder than I've ever heard in my life) and seeing Will Hoge on Thursday. But, you see, instead I am packing to come home. So, the stories can wait... It's time to put the computer away... I am heading home - Yippee!!

Another uneventful day...
My life has been pretty dull lately. Don't get me wrong, I am not complaining. There just hasn't been much to write about. I go to work, I go home, I watch a little tele... That's about it. It's a happy life, really, just not very exciting.
Friday was the last day of school. I'm glad to have a break. Those last few weeks were torture. At home, the last week of school consists of movies, games and parties. Here, you work through the last day. We had a Sports Day and a Feasts Day last week, but that meant that the kids did not want to do shit this past week. Combine that with the fact that it was a Week One (my heaviest timetable) and you've got lesson after lesson of pulling teeth just to get the kids to work a little. Ugh! What a way to go out! Anyway, the good news is that I get six weeks off before I have to worry about any of that again. Whoo-hoo!!
I've got a week before I head home, so Monday I am heading to Bath (pronounced 'Bahth', mind you, because every time I say it 'Baath' I am corrected - besides, it sounds better with the British accent). I have booked two nights in a hostel there and am hoping to see Stonehenge along the way. I am meeting one of the girls from my European tour on Monday. It'll be cool to explore the city with company.
Thursday I have tickets to see Will Hoge at Shepherd's Bush Empire with The Cat Empire - a sold out show, mind you. I need to look into the Night Bus from London so that I can stay out later than 11. Otherwise, it could be a fairly early night.
Then, a week from today, I will be on a non-stop flight to Atlanta - heading home for three weeks, baby!! [Just a little excited about that one - should be a good time!]
