I don't know what the weather is like where you live, but temperature around here has risen above 30°C (86+°F). You don't hear me complaining though! My room has windows facing the West, I'm right next to a river and there are lots of trees surrounding our building, not allowing any direct sunlight into my room. So the temperature inside here is great. It's perfect for studying.

But you see, that's exactly what's driving me crazy. We hardly ever get weather this warm. I should be enjoying a dive in the sea and nice cold drinks. But here I am, locking myself in in my room, trying to get twenty chapters of Greek text into my head (can you actually say that in English? In Dutch we say 'learn by head' instead of 'learn by heart', so we try to get stuff into our head. You don't try to get it into year heart, do you?). There's only one thing that can cheer me up right now. Wednesday morning around ten in the morning I'm going to sit my exam, and afterwards I'll never have to think about taking Greek exams anymore.

Downside of the situation is that I should start studying for my next exam right away.But hey, I can handle it! I already decided how to keep myself focused: tomorrow, after lunch I'll go out and get some...ice cream!!! You see, life as a student isn't that bad after all!
