Vienna waited for me

So, it's been a while since I blogged. It's been so long, I'm not even sure where to start. So much so that I have been putting off blogging for the last few days, which is turning what I need to write about into more and more, making me want to write less and less. It's a vicious cycle I tell you.

Well, last weekend I went to Vienna, which was very nice, except for the weather. It was the first nice weekend in London, with clear blue skies and sunshine and in Vienna it was... raining. Plus the Viennese are very grumpy. But after about an hour, I reached a point where I was like, yes, I am an Imperialistic English-only speaker, yes I am loud, yes I don't know your customs, get over it. It was very refreshing. I also put on a distinct American accent to avoid connection with Australia, to protect our international rep. Basically I sat around in coffee shops, ate alot of cake and schnitzel and occasionally saw some kind of significant sight (Schonbrunn is definitely worth the trip, but take a book and some food because that hill is waaaay to steep to walk up in one go!). While coming home my bra almost caused an international incident because it had too much metal in it and kept setting off the metal detectors, which earned me several minutes of a middle aged Viennese woman poking at my breasts in front of the 100 other people waiting for the flight. Great. But survived it and came home in one piece! Now I am stressing about exams, getting ready for the moot, worrying about what to do after exams and the like. Gosh. I can't wait for them to be over! But then I can because I am nowhere near ready yet! Gah!

Anyway, thats all I can think of right now..... Until I can recall more!
