So yesterday Patty came and we went to 222. We just sat there doing nothing special. After a little while Joanna came too but me and Patty left because she had to go shopping with her grandmother. I came home to do my history essay. Then I went to school to take my last final. On my way there, I dropped my purple sweater from Alex and I thought I lost it so I was about to freak. Luckily, Kranin found it for me. The final went ok. I did it very quickly just to get out of there. I went and wrote my last emails from CYA and then I went to Vicky. I sat there and had a coffee until Patty came. Vicky gave me a really nice pair of earrings. Then we started heading towards home. We stopped in some stores on the way. When we got to her house, we attempted to repack her luggage. It was absolutely crazy. That girl bought so many things. She is going home with five luggage. We went through hell to get it shut but we worked miracles. She wanted to take them to her grandmothers but we were kind of late for our reservations. She went anyway and called and cancelled htem. In the meantime, Helen called and said she wanted to come with another group and we did not want that. So anyway, we decided we would go anyway so we all got dressed up and just walked in,  just me, Patty and Joanna. The menu only had one type of food with either chicken, steak or salmon. First the brought out French bread with this spread. It was green and buttery but I have no clue what it was. Then they brought the lettuce salad that had a delicious dressing. Next was the main course. I got salmon and the girls split the steak. Then they served these really think like French Fries and it was all covered in this sauce. Very good. And for dessert we had profiterole which did not thrill me. Afterwards, we went to Takis. Carrie came too. We sat there and had a drink until about 2. Bill came too. We had plans to go to one of the big clubs but Patty was dead tired and I could care less. So we cam home. I could not fall asleep for the life of me. It was horrible. I only ended up getting one hour of sleep. Dad called again, in the morning, no big surprise. I was supposed to meet mom at 9:00 to go shopping. She ended up coming at 9:30 with no money. We started fighting of course and she was telling me I don't know how to clean. We sat at Vicky's a little and then I went to the academic center. I ended up getting an A in Greek, a B in Art & Archaeology, a C in Byzantine Art and those are the only ones out so far. From there I stopped by the dining hall one last time. Then I went shopping! I bought some gifts for people and a lot of purses. It was so much fun. Me and Joanna then started packing up our little apartment. It is very strange. Mom is here too but she is sleeping. I think I am going to try to do that for a little while too.
