Another Week

(To the left: My friends at the club)

I finish classes on Thursdays at 10.. so the weekend has begun! Yet, I realize I never spoke of what I did last weekend, so I will tell you now.

On Friday night, we went to a club called "Filth" but despite its name, it was a good club. We had to go early to get free entrance, and so we were the only ones dancing for the first hour. That was fun for us! And probably terribly funny for everyone who watched! On Saturday, we visited Christ Church, a beautiful and famous college and cathedral. What is most exciting about it for me is that the stairs by the dining hall is where parts of Harry Potter (1 & 2) were filmed! Pretty exciting! And the dining hall looks like Hogwarts, but has only three tables. The hall is famous because of its connections with Alice's Adventure in Wonderland, by Lewis Carroll. It was a pretty place, but crowded so we are going to go back on a less touristy day. (To the right: Christ Church)

The rest of my week has been spent reading, writing, and preparing for our trip to Wales. I tried to buy train tickets online, but it would not let me because my address is outside the UK. Today, we went to the train station and my debit card wouldn't work because stupid Wells Fargo canceled it because they thought it was stolen. I really don't like that bank. So I had to charge them and my very wonderful father called the bank. Hopefully my card will be reactivated before this weekend.

Well... I must devote the rest of my day to homework.. what else is new?

What I have learned (or that just refreshed my memory):
I miss my family
I miss my friends
And last, but not least, I miss my Jonathan
