Week 5

This was one of the more stressful weeks I have had so far. From waking up early to go to Bayer on Wednesday, to having two lab papers due and a physiology test on Friday, it was a busy week. It started out with a holiday as well. We celebrated Galentine's Day on Valentine's Day, which was fun. The next day, we went to Bayer. They had a lot of interactive science displays that were interesting to see. After the physiology test, Sarahi and I went to Luxembourg. It is a small country, but it was really cool. I couldn't tell what languages everyone spoke, because some signs were in German but the majority of people there spoke to us in French. For food, we went to Pizza Hut and a Mexican restaurant. (Is it really a Mexican restaurant if they speak French and don't serve queso?) They greeted us by saying "Bonjour!" and when we got our food they told us "Bon appétit!". I've never been to France (yet), so I though this was really cool. The city itself was beautiful. There were a lot of parks and trees. Most of the tourist spots were further away from the main part of town, so we didn't really go out and see them. We just stayed in the city center and walked around and went shopping. I was really excited to go to Sephora because I don't think they exist in Germany. We bought some face masks and de-stressed. Everything went really well with the trip.
