Corfu

The vacation that I wanted or the vacation that I needed? A bit of both. I am enjoying the good weather, for I the first time in months I have gone 48 hours without rain. I am not sunburned yet, even though I have been outside for most daylight hours. Julia is making me do a bit of work on my thesis, only because her mentor is making her email him some edits. I have been reviewing lots of literature, but none of it seems relevant to my topic. But that hasn't been the whole holiday, don't despair. Yesterday we went to the beach at Glyfides and swam in the Adriatic, today we climbed forts in Corfu Town and drank many iced cappuccinos. Tomorrow we explore the north.

Excuses, excuses

The family just left. It was nice to spend time with Mom, Dad, and the Kid. Tomorrow I go on holiday, one week in Corfu. Thus, no time to write. I know I need to write about Belgium, Helsinki, Tallinn, and Berlin, about Asian night, about groupwork, about my family's visit, but I'm tired. No, exhausted. I've been working, my thesis proposal is due in four weeks. I've been fighting, I am desperate for a consistent funding policy. I will catch up eventually. Just not tonight.

MIA

The past three weeks have been a bit bust. First there was the weekend in Belgium. Then Asian night. Then group work. Therefore, I skipped town and spent last week in Helsinki, Tallinn, and Berlin. So in the next few days I will be posting. It needs to be done soon because Mom, Dad, and Kid arrive in 10 days. No, nine. Wow. Lots to do.
