Good day today.

Was going to go for a run this morning but had a hard time falling asleep last night so I slept in until 9. Then I made myself breakfast then went to the library to do some reading for class. Some of the reading was interesting but after going to class it didn't seem crucial to understanding the lecture content. I think from now on I'm going to read relevant sections of the textbooks we bought and just go to the library when I want to learn more or need to research for an essay.

Class was good. We learned about Inigo Jones and Christopher Wren - famous English architects famous for much of London's historical buildings.

After class I made my way to the flat then went for my first run in a week. It was good to get back out there but I was rather sluggish and only went for half an hour.

Then I made dinner for myself and baked some scones. I found a recipe online that didn't involve heavy cream or shortening (both of which I don't have and might be difficult to find here - we had trouble finding all the basic baking supplies). I also added some cinnamon and cocoa to the recipe. They came out quite well. They are not overwhelmingly sweet or chocolately and taste with the strawberry jam I have from Harrod's.

I spent the rest of the evening videochatting with Stacy with our plans for the weekend. I can't believe she is going to be here in two days!!!!! So exciting.

I videochatted with Dad and Mom for a while too, which I always nice and comforting.

Now I really must go to bed. Another full day tomorrow!!

Night.
