For our field trip today, we went to a wax museum not too far out of town. The museum has been the life work of the creator, who designed and built all of the exhibits. There were probably 40 people representing the last 200 years in Greek history. I went through the museum with Fay, my teacher, and she explained the significance of each scene, since there were no plaques aside from some names. There were many scenes showing Turkish brutality against Greeks and Greek rebellion against the Turks. It was a short field trip, but a good one. We couldn't take pictures though. Oh well.
Dinner was eggplant or a zucchini/potato dish. I had both. It was the second best meal at the cafeteria so far :)
After, I went into town with Michelle, Nicolette and Serina and we went to a cafe/restaurant near the water, which was pleasant. It's amazing how many people go out every night to get food and drinks and just socialize. They also stay out really late; things were definitely still popping when we left at 11.
The IT band is feeling better, but I don't like not running. I might try out the gym tomorrow. I've been avoiding it because from what I've heard, it's a basketball court, a tiny weight section, three treadmills, one bike and one elliptical, so it's almost as good as the IMA but not quite haha.
I also went to a pharmacy and bought some allergy medicine yesterday; I asked for something strong since I'm going on like 4 rolls of toilet paper for tissues a week. She gave me a nasal spray and I'm hoping it starts working because I've been sort of congested. Coming home and living with Kitty will be no problem haha.
Love Alex
