Hello stress!!

Hi chicos, time for a quick update!

So I went home for Christmas and it was AWESOME. After 3months of being away from home, being back was like heaven. I celebrated my 21st birthday there with family and close friends and had a great time. And now I am back. 

Welcome back to Spain with exams, revision, essays.... yawn yawn yawn! Sadly alongside this I am also expected to write my dissertation, do the University of Southampton think I am super woman?! I already spend 98% of my time at university and studying and the other 2% sleeping... Realistically if I want to pass these exams I will have to leave my dissertation at this moment because there is no way I can do both.. ¡Que estrés! 

You can only imagine the pressure! 

On the plus side, I am able to go home for a short while between the end of exams and start of the second semester :D (yes I will still be studying there).

Now this might not sound odd as I am a student, but this certainly doesn't seem like the average blog of an erasmus student to me. They are expected to have fun, travel a lot, be drunk all the time, be happy and not have to worry. Well unfortunately, I can't do this due to the amount of work I have. So when I was home and people asked me, "are you having a great time? Getting to travel around a lot?", my answer is no!

Seeing other people's blogs makes me feel disappointed that I am not able to enjoy my year abroad as much as they seem to be. Oh well such is life and I will be home soon.

Rant over for now, laters xx
