So yesterday morning (Thursday) I woke up feeling like someone had slugged me in the eye with a baseball bat..........NO! A stye. For the love of all that's holy! I woke up, 2 days away from Paris with a stye in my left eye. Oy vey! So I hurried out of the house and jumped on a bus to get to Boots (cause I had class practically all day). I went up to the pharmacy and they immediately gave me something, no questions asked, and the ointment only costed 5 pounds. Gosh I love Europe. Back home I would have had to wait FOREVER to get something for it. But no, not here. So then I booked it to school (although I was about 30 minutes early for my 11am class), took out my left contact, put the ointment in, and proceeded to go the whole day with only my right contact in my eye. Basically, I was half blind for the majority of the day. I do not recommend this feeling. IT SUCKED! Taking notes half blind, not cool. But I made it through, with only a few headaches throughout the day. I walked home (probably not the best idea) and put on my glasses...where they have been for all of today also. I don't plan on putting my contacts in until tomorrow morning when we get to Paris, that way, by then, my eye should be majorly better, although it's almost completely healed right now, just still a little red, but it doesn't feel like anyone has punched me anymore....always a good sign.
Paris is a few hours away. Since we have to fly from the Luton airport, we have to take the train and then a bus to get there. We are leaving from Surbiton station at 11:30pm tonight (Friday) and getting there (Luton) about 1 or 2am. Or flight leaves close to 7am and we arrive in Paris at 9am! I cannot wait! The weather looks like it will be beautiful, 56 and sunny on Saturday and 54 on Sunday and a bit cloudy (which is okay, considering we will be in museums for most of the day). This should be a great trip! I am sooooooooooo excited! French food, language, and sites! Yay!
Au revoir!
