While I am studying abroad at the University of Newcastle upon Tyne for a semester, I figured a blog would be a good idea to keep all of my friends and family updated on my British adventures and a good way for me to not get too homesick.

Day 83
I had earlyish breakfast with Jen, then my last seminar with Will. We had quite a good time. Barely anyone showed up, so it was just Will and I discussing our question and it led to us making a very odd venn diagram of our friendship. hahaha. I handed in my last Diff EQ homeword, and received a poorly done previous assignment... oh well, can't change the past.Then, it was spa time! I met up with Jen, Jen, Liz, and Kate and we headed over to the City Pool, where downstairs they have the spa and massages and such. We paid L5.20 for the Turkish bath, complete with a cool jacuzzi, sweat room, and sauna. We all just felt generally happy from then on. We were allowed up to 3 hours, but we only stayed for 1.5. It completely drained us of energy, and ended up dehydrating us a bit. We went shopping, well Jen did while we all sat on the floor exhausted out of our minds. We finally returned to our dorms, so I ate lunch and laid down just for a bit of rest before heading off to Diff EQ and Number Theory lectures where we went over old exams in both. Unfortunately, I had to miss Esther's 21st surprise birthday dinner the girls through for her. I still chipped in on her present. 10 of us each gave L4 to get her this beautiful ring. Esther is like the mother of our floor and the sweetest girl here. I met up with them on the way back after class and Jen sat with me while I ate yucky dining hall food, not very appetizing at all. I returned to my room to skype Matt, and even facebook Gayle a little bit. Then, I did 45 minutes of zumba followed by 8 minute abs. I then let Jen and Jen know that I was done and they joined me to watch this week's episode of America's Next Top Model: British Invasion. Eventually, they left and I watched Secret Life before falling asleep.
