Well, 'ello loves! I luckily found a phone booth! They don't really use them here anymore, but they do keep them around. I guess they like to watch American tourists like me take ridiculous photos in them and then laugh at us.
Man, this was a long (yet quick) week. I can't believe week 2 is coming to a close! Glad to have those two papers off my chest though. Hopefully I will do well on them!
Jane Austen wasn't bad today. Lectured a little and then we got to watch the BBC (Colin Firth) version of Pride and Prejudice. Which I adore. My professor has a very funny sense of humor- the English are actually super hilarious, not something I expected. He's crazy. He tried on a corset at the fashion museum and he was making fun of us girls today for liking Mr. Darcy. I know what you're thinking...and no. He is not.
Tried a new place for lunch today as well- Pret a manger was the name. Got a WONDERFUL prosciutto baguette and grapies. YUM! We just ate outside and people watched and listened to the music playing in the square. There is always music playing here and everyone is very talented so it's a nice way to relax in the middle of the day.
Then came time for Sherlock Holmes. That seemed kind of endless. After we wrote a paper for her she decided to be oh-so sweet and let us out 15 minutes early. Unfortunately, I have a group presentation next week. But I will just tackle as I usually do and do good work.
At least I got a nice rest in today. Went to Victoria Park with my friend and we read and enjoyed the sunshine and took a little nap out there. Also, had a very yummy dinner. Pesto angel hair pasta with chicken, garlic bread, and salad. Went out for a bit tonight to celebrate one of my housemate's 22nd birthdays and then packed up for London. We are first going to Stonehenge and Salisbury and then we will get to London later on. I will make sure to take tons of pictures! You can count on me!
XOXO
