Hello lovely friends and family back home. Things have been pretty quiet lately, mostly on account of the fact that I've got my first exam tomorrow -sob-! It seems so crazy as I've been hearing that everyone in the UK is heading back to University this week after I've been here for nearly a month and am approaching my 'Mid-Terms', which are a bunch of exams we have half way through the term...!
I don't have too much to report but I'll put in some little snippets. First of, Wag, which is our dinning hall is getting a bit ridiculous now. I went for an aerobics class the other day and when I stumbled out, ravished with hunger into Wag I was greeted by a big, fat, greasy fry-up which was the only option in the all-you-can-eat buffet at 8:30pm. Then again, I went for 'brunch' (we're combining our breakfast and lunch as a result of a limited student income) they had roast chicken, sausages,ratatouille , vegetables- everything you could ever hope for dinner... not at 11:30am... naturally I went all out but my options are limited.
We went to Wallmart last night, not much to report but on the way back we had a Taxi driver who couldn't have been more excited that we were English, turns out he was a massive Dr Who fan and within minutes was asking if we recollected that fateful episode in 1976 when the Dr battles the blahblah monster. 1976? 1976?! I wasn't even alive. It was quite amusing though and after we said good-bye, promising to send him over some Jelly Beans. We then went home, collapsed on the sofa and watched all our favourite programs from the BBC.
I will keep you updated but wish me luck for my exam tomorrow, especially seeing as I seem to have developed a cold so am not feeling too good. Spirits are up though,temporarily at least and they'll be even higher tomorrow when I step out of the exam room. Bye for now :)
