school's (almost) out!!

today was our last day of class. we had powerpoint presentations yesterday. i did mine on the crinoline and it went pretty well. then today we sort of chatted with the class about what each of our papers are on. following that, anne took us out to a good bye lunch at a fancy place down the road from school.
my paper is almost totally finished. i have a full draft and just need to edit it! i'm also almost completely packed.

just in time because i leave at 10 tomorrow morning for amsterdam! it's been quite a production getting it all organized. i'll be meeting up with:
-noor, my roommate, who will be coming from D.C. and is in the air already!
-charlie, my blockmate, who will be coming from brussles
-nick, charlie's roommate, who will be coming from rotterdam
-sebastien, in winthrop, who lives in switzerland but i think is coming from pakistan? or just got back from pakistan? or something?
-moira, in winthrop, and two of her friends who have been on the summer school program in oxford
making plans with people in five different countries and four different time zones was pretty stressful but we did it!
and saturday night we're going to brussels and staying with charlie, then i head back to london sunday.

mk i'm really looking forward to the weekd! but i should go eat some dinner now
