april 12 - part one

(take one)

a productive day of studying and paper writing. soon i'll be done with all the work and i'll be able to enjoy the increasingly warm weather!

the ship is having a great time with the two april 12ths, they're playing groundhog day on the tv loop. the movie is about a man (bill murray) who lives the same day over and over. i've never seen the movie so hopefully i get a chance to watch it at some point, it seems fun.

the ship is back to rocking and rolling, a phenomenon nearly forgotten since prior to mauritius. we've only had short stretches at sea, leaving little time for seasickness. i'm sure that the rocking will only continue, so i may use a patch to keep from feeling under the weather during the global studies exam. 

we had a traditional easter meal tonight, lamb! and carrot soup, which i was more than happy about. it almost felt like home. no idea if we'll have the same tomorrow, as it will be easter again.. i'd love more carrot soup! there is a special buffet line for passover, though the quantities are limited so i won't take anything from the students observing the holiday. the matza looks so good, though! no rugelach, unfortunately. that i'd have to sneak!

 back to my papers and studying; lets hope the work pays off!
love and miss you all!

happy easter (and passover!)
