El tube es una máquina gigantesca e incansable, que traga gente, tiempo, periódicos y libras esterlinas. Si bien es cierto ya en París habíamos estado usando el metro, en Londres el transporte subterráneo terminó por gustarnos más, ... Read more >

My First Week of Work!

Sat, 12 May 2012 | By frenchflower24 | Views [604]

This week was really good. I'm so glad I've had Kate to show me around and give me an idea of the girls' routine, etc. Kate is also a really nice person and we get along well. I will be sad to see her go, but she will still be in London (she is going ... Read more >

Last day on Holy Island...

Sat, 12 May 2012 | By muoy | Views [815]

Claire, Laura and I went to the Green Tara meditation this morning at 6am.  I ended up waking up by myself at 5am since it was bright out, but I was still exhausted because I had a hard time falling asleep again.  The meditation was really cool...mostly ... Read more >

Adapting to Changes...

Fri, 11 May 2012 | By muoy | Views [721]

This is actually last night's blog...slacked off on uploading it yesterday since I went to bed early...heheh This silent thing definitely isn't working for me.  I was doing so well until around 11am.  Fen, one of the volunteers here, distracted me and ... Read more >

Finally...a breakthrough....

Thu, 10 May 2012 | By muoy | Views [470]

3:35PM I had a hard time falling asleep again last night.  I think my body is not meant to sit idle for so many hours in a day and all that stored up energy keeps me up late at night.  When my alarm went off at 6:45am, I reset it to 8:15 which is breakfast ... Read more >

My mind wants to do it's own thing...

Wed, 9 May 2012 | By muoy | Views [893]

Wednesday, 8:47AM I got off to a rough start this morning...I broke silent time within the first 5 minutes of waking up (but I had a good excuse) and the 7:30am meditation didn't go so well.  As I was coming back to my room from the bathroom this morning ... Read more >

Acceptance...and lots of it...

I had a hard time falling asleep last night...I think it was because I was drinking green tea all day and at night...so I was pretty wired from the caffeine.  Whenever I can't sleep, I stress over how tired I'll be the next day if I don't fall asleep ... Read more >

So much to do

Tue, 8 May 2012 | By phill-dionne-gobey | Views [284]

Your own bed is always so much better when you haven’t been in for months. I slept like a baby. Minus the fact I woke up at 3.30am (not knowing it was 3.30am) walked to the bathroom and was about to get up and dressed as I really thought ... Read more >

The journey begins...with planes, trains, automobiles and more!

Yesterday was such a long day...probably because I barely slept for 34 hours. This was definitely the most complicated commute I've ever done while traveling. Starting from car to the airport --> 3 plane rides --> bus #1 --> train --> ferry ... Read more >

Time Flies!

Sat, 5 May 2012 | By frenchflower24 | Views [543]

Wow, I'm really sorry I haven't written in so long - so many things have been happening and I've been so caught up that I haven't documented them! I will domy best to catch you up on all the things I've been doing (hopefully I will remember all ... Read more >
