"Outfit; A footnote in someone else's happiness"

Just 9 days of university and I have already accumulated a very impressive pile of courses. Half of those courses being of the WTF category but I guess that comes with the territory and the cute white coats.

If updates will be a little slow from now it's because I am usually too tired when I get home to do anything but get into my PJs and watch Dexter (or the newly rediscovered Pushing Daisis). Weekend are for sleeping and drinking! Just joking.

Today's highlights include:
+ trying out the new coffee my girls and I got for free from our Starbucks (that's what happens when you spend all your free time there!)
+ finding out the connection between human physiology and lions (hint: there is none)
+ finally almost finishing Bulgakov's The Master and Margarita and startingTerry Pratchett's Good Omens.
+ coffee!

Yesterday (Monday):


My university's amphitheater.








L-O-L, I love histology. (someone asked in the last post what it is: it's the study of human cells and tissue. Fun, right?)


My uni is under repair.

"Outfit; Love's not a hostile condition"

This week felt like the longest week ever. On Friday I had a way too early Histology course where I learned nothing new but at least I got to wear my white coat and play with a microscope, right?

Tonight it is Reservoir Dogs and hot chocolate night.

My bonsai tree had been ill but is now feeling much better. It even had visitors today.

"Outfits; So many heartaches, so many faces"



*

University has started again and I am no longer the med student slacking off at Starbucks but the med student stuck in anatomy and microbiology courses from 8am to 6pm almost daily. Needless to say it was a pretty bad week with the long hours being just the tip of the oh-so-embarrassing and annoyingly depressing iceberg. Thank god for the weekends and Dexter, right?

I had some pretty outfits this week but of course, me being me, I completely forgot to take photos... So here you have the photos from my trip this weekend and a promise that next week I will be better. Doctor's honor!

Dana and Mada on our first night out in that new city!


Me and Minnie (with me being a tad drunk!)




















Nothing is better on a walk at 3am in an unknown city than passing by a cemetery.

My outfit: dress: Mango, tights & socks: unknown & Golden Point, boots: Musette, headband: Accessorize, leather jacket & scarf: bought in Rome, unknown

Day Two. The old town center.


Minnie looked more than adorable. I think you all agree that we should steal her shoes.


Best food ever!





Me, Mada, Minnie and Dana after we finally found someone to take our tourist-y photo!


I really loved that city!


Truth or Dare with wine shots before a night on the town = perfection!

"Plastic hearts and blue shoes"

Let's get drunk and ride around
And make peace with an empty town

We can make it right...


We'll scream loud at the top of our lungs

And they'll think it's just cause we're young

And we'll feel so alive

I am back. It felt so unnatural waking up today and going to school, when just 24 hours before I was walking in the rain sharing kisses with a blue-eyed boy while yelling at the top of my lungs with my girls.

Slept a total of 9 hours, met French boys, ate the best food ever, chased pigeons, danced with the room spinning around so fast I was scared I would fall, played truth or dare while drunk, bought blue shoes, had dinner in the middle of the night, stayed up until 4am sharing sexual fantasies ideas, enjoyed the last sunny day and fell in love with my best friends all over again.

Best weekend ever. That's why I still can't believe that today I woke up in my own bed.

Train home: Minnie, Dana, Mada and I, feeling just as tired as we look.

"Outfit; I'm a lead farmer, motherf--"


Uni says: welcome back. bring caffeine.

(Excuse the title, but it's my new favorite quote ever!)

First day of university and no courses were held. Of course it would have been helpful if they had told us that too. But it was a fun day either way cause we got to have a Starbucks trip, got to see my colleagues and feel sorry for the freshmen who looked so scared and lost. Ah, dear memories from last year when we thought it was all so very Grey's Anatomy :))

I still can't believe that the school year is already here when just yesterday I was with my girls laughing until we couldn't breathe at Tropic Thunder and getting sugar highs while talking about our new Dexter obsession and cute Starbucks boys.

But at least we're getting one last holiday before we dive into anatomy books! I'm leaving for the mountains this weekend for a few days of wine, food, gossip and sightseeing, can't wait. Expect a lot of photos when I come back.

Hope everyone has an amazing weekend.

Starbucks should start paying me for all the advertising I do for them :))














Met with Irina today who is just as photogenic as always.


Andy (who has taken the job of photographer again!), Maria and Irina before the not-happening Anatomy course.


Saw Dana for a couple of seconds on the halls!


Don't you just want to steal their bags? I do.


Subway photoshoot.


We stopped at our favorite café near our uni, French Bakery, where they have the best cakes ever.
