Hey everybody!

It has been three years since I was a brand new student, fresh out of high school. I'm currently in my fourth year. I started this blog in an attempt to keep my family, friends and any prospective students up to date with my life at the University of Lethbridge. I'm continuing with it this year as it worked well. Thanks for reading!

April 16th, 2014

Woke up a bit earlier this morning at 10 am as opposed to 11. Breakfast was really good, tea, yoghurt, eggs & toast, very filling! I decided to wear my white tank top and my black skirt as it was very hot out.

After breakfast, we all walked down to La Pedrera, one of Gouvy’s most famous private constructions. We toured the building and learned about Gouvy himself. His style of architecture is so intricate and mesmerising! His use of shapes and colours was way before his time and it’s all beautiful. Stopping in the gift shop on the way out, I bought Gouvy themed lamp shades that you put over wine glasses with candles in them, very simple yet pretty.




We stopped at a little café for a light lunch. I had these potato ball things that were very good but very spicy. We all sat in the sun as the shade got pretty chilly!

After lunch, Franny’s parents went home while Franny and I went shopping! I bought a couple of flowery shirts, a scarf, a fan, and two beautiful dresses. I probably spent way too much but I’m on vacation!

When we got back to the apartment we had snacks (cheeses and crackers and wine) and watched pimp my ride and other shows like that (mainly because that’s the only thing playing in English).

Around 10 pm we went to a restaurant called 4 Cats for supper but we didn’t have a reservation so they couldn’t accommodate us. Franny’s family made reservations for tomorrow night but since this is my last night I unfortunately won’t be able to go. So we walked around the block to an Italian pizzeria for supper instead. I had a wonderful Bolognese Lasagna. Then it was back to pack for my early flight.
