This was the Great Hall in Harry Potter.
Today my OXTA class went on a tour of Christ's Church. When I say tour.. I mean a 3 hour long tour. (No, not like Gilligan) The lady that was the leader of our tour was VERY excited about stained glass and described every detail. It was very interesting at some points, but it just kept going on. Anyways, I do not mean to sound like I did not enjoy it at all. The church was beautiful, and i had seen it previously because that's where I went to church 2 Sundays ago. My favorite part was seeing the stairwell and the Great Hall where scenes of Harry Potter were filmed at. The movies made it look a lot longer and bigger, but you could still definetley recognize it from the movies.
This weekend, we as a class, are going to York and Whitby in England from Thursday to Saturday. None of us really know what is there and I'm curious to see what they have planned for us. I looked up pictures and it looks like its near the coast, so thats cool.
I have been doing my best to keep up with my homework, and I'm doing fairly well. It is just hard to get into the mode of school when I dont have class from Wed. afternoon to Sunday.
I still am loving seeing all the new places and learning the history of this great city, so much really has happened here.
Tonight, KrisAnn, Jessica, Beth, and I attempted to do a yoga video in the common room. We propped the door closed and put a chair in front of the door so people couldnt make fun of us. However, some people still managed to come in and laugh. It was funny because I wasnt very good and I had a hard time taking the video seriously. I bought THREE cookies today, which is a lot! and it was kind of expensive, but people have been talking about Millie's cookies and Ben cookies and I just finally broke down and bought 2 of Millie's and one of Ben's(because those were better). Let's just say they were so good but I felt a little sugared out afterwards and I definetley felt like I needed that yoga session.
I changed my settings on this so that anyone can leave me a comment without having an account on this thing..so go comment away!!
I love and miss all you in the states very much!!!
