What have I done today? Well I had some Greek class, which I loved as usual. I wish I could study this language even more. I also heard Swedish today, so I need to add that to my list of languages that I want to learn. We will be going out for dinner tonight, so hopefully I can put some of my new vocabulary into practice.
We went out and started shooting some stuff for our final project, so there will be some photos being posted tonight. I will probably be sneaking down to use the cable to upload the photos faster. I am also going to embed a link into this post. I hope you enjoy it.

The song is called "Euphoria." Its lyrics totally encompass my life right now. Everything is just so beautiful and unbelievable. It is like a constant state of euphoria. The beat just drives you through the song. This gem was found the other night when we went out and saw the singing competition "EuroVision" playing all down the boardwalk. All the contestants were so good that I had to buy the CD. 42 songs for only 15 Euro! Not bad at all. "Euphoria," by the Sweden singer Loreen, actually was the winner of this year's EuroVision, so that means next year EuroVision will be held in Sweden. A fun fact too: Israel takes place in this competition too, so that means I will be able to watch it next year too!!!
It other news, dealing with intense feelings of awesomeness, I went cliff jumping today! Yup, can check that off of my bucket list now. You know, I am usually afraid of heights, but when I know that I can't be hurt I am good. I just lept off and enjoyed the ride down. If anyone reading this ever comes to Santorini this is must activity. It is about 30 feet up maybe. Hopefully someone caught a picture of me on the way down. I didn't have my camera with me when we went to the beach, so I don't have any pictures of me on my camera. I will go again though, so you can bet that there will be some pictures in this coming week of me jumping again.
I am in the super sensitive cough stage of my cold, so I hope that means that I am on the mend. It is isn't impeding my life too much, but it wouldn't anyways. I'm in Greece! I can't let a stupid cold get me down. On a less exciting note, I did laundry today. To be honest, it is exciting to me. It means I get clean clothes! So hopefully all my shirts and stuff will be dry by tomorrow morning. That would be awesome.
As of now I don't know what the evening will have in store. I most likely will be in working on class stuff. I haven't decided if I want to go into Fira tonight and get some more shots at night. It always adds a different feeling to pictures. We also may spend some time figuring out what we will be doing this weekend. We may be going to Crete this weekend (which would mean no blogs, sorry. Don't want to lose my laptop.). The long ferry there (which leaves at 3:00am) is only 18 Euro, so 36 Euro round trip. Not too bad. We may spend one night and come back, so we have one last day to explore the island some more.
Either tomorrow or Thursday we will be hiking up to the Monastery (finally). I have been waiting for this. I will probably be taking lots of pictures there (if I am allowed). Wednesday is a free day, so we don't know what we will be doing, but we will be doing something. It may be a drive out to the lighthouse past Akrotiri to watch the sunset. Or it may be staying close to Kamari and doing something. I will keep you all posted.
