Finished with exams!!!

So, I finished the last exam yesterday. Yesterday was the short-answer portion of the exam and was somewhat easy to me. I sat down and looked at the questions and knew the answer to each question fairly well. There were a couple that stumped me like explaining what bacterial LPS was, I put down a little information on it and then some other info as filler to make my answer sound better. All in all, I was happy with the essays and short answers but the multiple choice portion was a little more difficult. Should find out grades before I come home in a couple of weeks. Lectures start Monday again. I went to the Christmas market today to take some pictures so everyone can see them, I have not uploaded them to my computer yet from the camera, I will get to that eventually. Also went walking around city centre today in search of some Christmas shops to do some Christmas shopping. I also made three loaves of banana bread today that turned out amazing! Made one loaf for the landlord, one for Kristen and her flatmates and then one for me! I am meeting Kristen tomorrow afternoon and we are going to a pub called "Sheep Heid Pub" that is supposedly Edinburgh's oldest pub. Mary Queen of Scots apparently stopped at this pub quite often and Robert Burns and Sir Walter Scott apparently went to this pub as well and wrote a lot of literature there. Anyway, should be fun. Also going to the Christmas market again this weekend and will get some mulled wine and fresh German bratwurst. Well, am going to stop writing and make some phone calls and eat this yummy apple sitting in front of me...

I checked out the Sheep Heid Pub and Inn online. Sounds like a neat place.
Did you play Skittles? I assume this is just like bowling? Wish I was Christmas shopping at the market with you. How great!! Congrats on finishing the exams! You are getting that much closer to Dr. Dan.
Love you,
Mum
