Midterms are finished and so begins the second half of my first term of third year prevet. The majority of this weekend was spent recuperating from a really hectic week, finally getting enough sleep and cutting out caffeine completely. Friday night, I went with Megan and Pearl to a fancy restaurant called the boathouse. We thought we would treat ourselves to a “real” meal to makeup for last weeks typical diet –pasta and coffee. The food was the AMAZING –honestly probably the best food ever. We had steak with a creamy peppercorn sauce, fried plantains, cooked pumpkin and cheesy potatoes with a greek salad to start. Desert was the best part and we ordered a “Grand Etang” (coffee ice cream cake with an oreo crust), Chocolate Mousse and the Crème Brulee. DELICIOUS!! I met one of Pearl’s roomies from Y dorm, After supper we rushed back to get ready to go out with the rest of the prevet/med people. Slept in on Saturday –fig didn’t like that much, and lounged around on the beach with some of the kids from the first term vet class/med classes. It was straight out of the movies, music cranked, people sunbathing everywhere, swimming and throwing Frisbees, good food and and the end of the day lots of impressive tan lines/burns. Saturday Night I went into town with Megan to Victory Bar, it’s a large night club right on the Bay where they are building the new port –Port Louis. We stayed there for a bit and Megan’s car broke down so we caught a ride with Megan’s friends from Scotland back to Bananas. Sunday I went with Megan to get her car fixed –turns out it started just fine which was a bit weird and got a start on some notes for this week. Monday there were not classes, back to the beach, laundry out of the way and everything back in order for classes today. Hope I can stay a bit more on top of classes so finals are not as ugly as midterms were!
The week went by fast!!! Spent the majority of it in class or studying –boring!! But now it is time for the weekend and a bit of a party time☺ Friday after class it took almost 3 hours to get home because I kept seeing people I knew that wanted to talk. It was nice –made me realize I have more friends then I thought. Went out to a new bar last night too –Aquarium. It’s gorgeous!! A little beach house right on the ocean and actually backing out onto the beach! Everyone went out to bananas afterward but I caught a taxi home. I think this weekend will be a marathon not a sprint and I do want to get some things accomplished this weekend! I had cottage cheese and fruit for breakfast –never tried that before. It was pretty tasty but the best part was that I found the only bag of frozen raspberries in the whole of IGA on Wednesday –SO EXCITED!!! I have missed raspberries so much!! Later on I’m going to meet some friends and hang out on the beach –provided the waves settle down a bit –they’re predicting a storm somewhere nearby so as a result the waves are HUGE. I think everyone is a bit worried that the drunk people at sandblast might get swept away if this keeps up so we are crossing our fingers for more sunshine and less wave. Fig and I are chillin or “limin” in the room for a bit and I hear noise down the hall so I might investigate….
