Finals Week & Photo Project

I had all of my finals last week, which is enough of an explanation for why this blog post isn't being written until now. 

Last Monday was a day of studying and preparing for my three exams that I would take the next day. but don't worry, I found a little bit of time to go to Cien Montaditos after my class.

I also completed my photo project for the semester. It's titled, La Belleza de Balcones (The Beauty of Balconies). In Sevilla, there are many small balconies in the apartments in El Centro. Sure, you may notice all the balconies, but what you might not notice, is that underneath the balconies are beautifully crafted ceramic tiles. The focus of my project was to urge people to stop and notice the small things in life, because that is where you may find the most beauty, where you least expected it. I put some photos below!

Tuesday was my day of exams. First I had Marketing at 9AM and then Wine at 11AM. I then went to grab Tapas with my friend Renee as a goodbye meal! It's so crazy to that I have met so many people this semester and I'm not sure of the next time I will see them! I then went back to studying and finally the time arrived for my Finance exam at 7PM. A huge weight was lifted off my shoulders as I handed in the exam, not just because I was done with most of my exams, but because I WILL NEVER HAVE TO TAKE A NUMBERS CLASS AGAIN IN MY LIFEEEEE! HALLELUJAH!

Wednesday I lead my last group workout and it was an intense one! I will most definitely miss working out in the Plaza De Espana, I don't think anything can really top that scenery. but I'm looking forward to getting back to November Project!

I ate lunch with the fam and then had my final final exam, in Ethics. After my Ethics exam I went to Cien with Lauren and Maaren and then grabbed some gelato before our End of the Semester Fiesta with our Business Program. 

Our fiesta was at a bar with free Tapas and drinks. Mostly all of our professors and coordinators were there and we were drinking with them, which is completely normal in Spain! 

I then went home to pack up because this past weekend I went to Austria with my roomie from Wisco, Kelly! 

You can read about that trip in the next post! :)
