The Sun is Good For Me

OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA(You have to read the title like that little boy from that wife swap episode)

This photo was taken yesterday in Toledo. We did the Fly Toledo Zip Line which was SO FUN. I haven’t zip lined since I developed my fear of heights, but it was honestly so great. It’s €10 for one jump, but if you’re a student you get 2 jumps for the price of one! I was going to do an ‘Exploring: Toledo’ post, but I actually just wanted to write a quick update post instead. The photo is a good representation of how I’ve been feeling recently.

I can’t lie, the past 2 or so weeks have been glorious. The weather has been BEAUTIFUL in Spain which I honestly believe has massively contributed to me being in a super positive and motivated mood. I write a to-do list every morning and by bedtime most things, (ie anything that’s not uni work lol), is crossed off. Each day, I’ll take myself to the park with a blanket to sit on and read in the sun. I always try and go when people are walking their doggos because, I’ve decided, dogs are just good for your mental health. Obviously I’ve had a few downs, I experienced sleep paralysis a few weeks back and last night I think I had a slight panic/anxiety attack. I feel it’s been brought on from reading about the Wolf Pack Case. It’s incredible to see thousands of people protesting about it. Had I known about the protests I would have definitely showed my support 1mil%.
We have bank holidays here on Tuesday and Wednesday, so I have a 5 day weekend. A few of my friends have gone away for a beach break, so I’m gonna take this time to try and finish my final assignments, which are all due in 2 weeks. It’s crazy to think that my year abroad is coming to an end. I can’t decide whether I want to do a final thoughts post about my time here, just because this year has been the most difficult year of my life. At the same time however, I feel like I have learnt a lot.

If there’s one thing this year has taught me I can do, it’s anything.
