I call this day “Preparation Day”. Today was the last full
day in Paris, and the main thing that was on mind was finishing off Paris right
and preparing for Amsterdam. I actually started off this day by sleeping longer
than usual, which was against what I usual routine. Even with the change, I
felt refreshed for another day. One thing that did feel different was starting
off later because I felt like I missed out on some time. With all that being said, I knew I had tasks
such as getting laundry done, packing for tomorrow, and making sure that my
class work was complete.
I started out the day by doing laundry. While waiting on my
clothes, I decided to utilize my time wisely by listening to my podcast and
checking emails. This made my laundry experience worthwhile because at least I
was able to do something than just be bored for most of the time.
Secondly, I started packing up my things for Amsterdam. The
great thing about packing for me was that I really did not have to repack that
much since I left most of items in my suitcase. I just had to make sure that I
had all of my necessities together so that I would not forget anything in
Paris.
Thirdly, I started checking out some things that I would
need to know for Amsterdam such as mobile apps and the weather. From what I saw,
the weather looked like it will be sunny all week. I literally saw 70-80 degree
weather, which made me excited because at least I could look forward to a
warmer week. In addition, the apps that I downloaded for Amsterdam was such a
great help for me. I remember how I used the same apps for France, it helped so
much, especially with understanding basic language statements and cultural
customs. With that being said, I felt adept for coming on my way to Amsterdam.
