It has been nearly a month since my last post and here I am sitting in my room on a Sunday, typing what seems to be probably my second last post of this venture.
So April has been another hectic month, that started with a trip to Cape Town, South Africa. My friend-Lauren and I decided to spend about 4 days in Cape Town for the Easter Break and without descending into too many details, I will tell you about the trip. Though the journeys there and back were stressful and tiring; when we arrived, all those notions disappeared quickly as we were amazed at the scenic beauty all around. We were able to do 2 tours, one was a wine tour and the other was a Cape Peninsula biking/hiking tour. Along with seeing some great attractions and sceneries we were able to meet up with our other international friends visiting, Monica,Ali and Annie and were able to celebrate Monica's 20th birthday in style for about 3 nights in a row!
I got back to Gaborone on the 9th of April, with about 10 days of classes left before exam mode would kick in. The middle of April was strictly devoted to writing papers and tests and doing group presentations. I see its a global trend to push everything to be due on the last month of the semester... charming.
Because of the level of "balling out" in Cape Town, I have been quite thrifty with my money as of late, (haven't drank since Cape Town) because I know expenses are going to add up towards the end of the month with celebrations and souvenir buying.
So here I am, about to get ready for week 1 of exams and I am trying to force myself to study... but so far I have miserably failed.
It boggles my mind and makes me real sad that I have 13 days in Bots' til' I come home. I have started to get accustomed to a routine I made for myself in these past 4 months and now that will have to stop.
What I do know about the next two weeks is despite the downer that is exams, I am going to be jamming!!!
Funny how I always think best here around 1-2 am .... I should probably get some rest before Monday rolls around.
Again, Good luck to all my friends who are still writing exams:)
I cannot wait to join you party people for a summer full of shenanigans!
