Well today was the first day of classes in the UK!! I was pretty lucky to start out with got up, got showered, got ready, Grace, Sarah and I met Kasey in the Manor for Breakfast, and right as we sat down we heard what sounded like a bird, just repeating, soon we found out someone's hair dryer had set off the fire alarm in the carriage house, so we just missed it!! Phew! Crisis averted!! After breakfast we went to British Studies Lecture, with all 183 of us students, it was kinda over my head for the most part, but that was because it was an overview of the entire semester, then an overview of the first 5 weeks!! joy! After the lecture we had seminar, the quickest way for me to get there is to take the secret passageway from the long gallery to the music room, then walk from the music room to the Culpin room (the dungeon). After seminar its back up to the long gallery for Biology, so back up the mildly dangerous spiral staircase for me!! Biology wasn't that bad, I think the professor will be good, which is good for me because I have her twice! Everyday of the week in fact!! After Bio was lunch and it was burgers, luckily they had a veggie burger, it is very very different than the ones in the states, it had a breading on it, much like a chicken patty, and peas, and carrots, and I think celery in it, weird; but good. we also had "chips" or fries! they were pretty good!! We explored some more and ended up going (somehow we're not quite sure yet) from the 5th floor of the manor all the way down and across to the library, so basically across the entire manor and down 4 floors, without even knowing it! After exploring we then went to dinner, where it was BBQ chicken and a baked potato, but I had a vegetable pasta, and the sauce was the weirdest thing, it was like jelly!! I swear there was gelatin in it!! After dinner Sarah, Elizabeth, Kelsey and I went to an SGA (Student Government Association) meeting, I'm going to be on yearbook staff!! I'm really excited for it!! I loved yearbook in high school!! After SGA Elizabeth, Kelsey and I went to the bistro and got a drink and a Cheese Toasty! When I asked the guy what a cheese toasty was it was hard for him to think how to describe it, he did find a way in saying it was a bit like a cheese sandwich. turns out its a grilled cheese on a panini press!! It was even made with American cheese, and I'm not sure if I have ever tasted anything soo good in my life!! haha!! I have estimated that it will cost approximately £43 so not bad for 3 days and 2 nights!! That's traveling on a budget! I also found 3 girls (looking for 1 maybe 2 more) to go to liverpool for about £30 to do a 3 hour Beatles tour!! I really want to do the Beatles tour soooooo bad!! but we will see, without finding 2 others it would be about £50 and that just isn't worth it :(
This was my class before anyone was in it, and the other one was my cheese toasty :) Well since I have to be in class in exactly 8 hours I need to go to bed!!
