A quiet week

My flat mates and the rest of the internationals have finally returned from their travels on the south island. It's been very quiet around Wellington this past week as all the new internationals took the Easter break as an opportunity to visit the beautiful landscapes down south. Meanwhile, here in Wellington, it's been pretty cold and wet so I've spent most of my week getting ahead on work, meeting up with the few people that are still in Wellington and baking. Included in this baking was my first bread; I made a red onion and rosemary focaccia; I was so amazed that this worked that yesterday I decided to have a go again, this time with pita breads and, after Dad's suggestion, some home made hummus to go with them.
My study had me sat in the lab for hours, identifying and drawing fossils; not my favourite type of geology.
During the past week my exam timetable came out, meaning I now know when I'm free to travel. Turns out my exams are annoyingly spaced but I have got time to fit in a 5 day trip to Sydney at the end of June, just before flying home.
I'm so excited for my coming travels to both Sydney and Singapore and can't believe that in 2 months time all this travelling will be done and I'll be arriving back in England; hopefully to a lovely summer.
