Hey Everyone!
I am having such a great time in Oxford! Yesterday day I played soccer (weird, huh) and we had a toga party with the Nebraska group! Sooo much fun and the togas were fun to make! Morgan's fiance, Ryan, had an American-themed toga with red, white and blue stars and stripes. Morgan and I had pink and purple and Joni used scarves that she bought in Paris! Fun time!
Today we had class and this afternoon we played "rounders", which is kinda like baseball. You play with a bat that is only about 2 feet long and you swing the bat with one hand. The ball is a bit smaller than a baseball and you don't wear gloves. When I was batting I somehow managed to hit the ball off the bat directly into my forehead. Thank God it wasn't like that girl from Milford that got hurt, right Dad!?! I wasn't hurt at all, but everyone was dying laughing at me. None of us really knew how to play the game very well so we tried our best and had a good time.
This afternoon Joni, Morgan and I worked extremly hard studying, no, wait, we were just coloring in our pub crawl poster! And, we incorrectly estimated the amount of pubs on our to do list. Orginally we thought there were about 30...after precisely counting the pubs there are 63 to visit!!! So far we only have 8!
Tonight after dinner we are going to a couple then at 9:00 pm the student assistants are taking the Nebraska group on a "ghost tour" of Oxford. I guess we will hear about spooky legends and stuff like that.
The weather is much nicer here now! Sunny days (finally) and cool nights. We are still sleeping with our wool blankets though.
Corey just put up a ton of pictures on his blog. You can check out his and Morgan's blogs at www.statravelblogs.com/coreyclifford and www.statravelblogs.com/morganrene Now, I have heard that some of you read Corey's blog more than mine!?! And you like his better??? What!
Well, that is all! I need to finish getting ready for my meat and potatoes meal :) I don't think any of us are dieting on this trip!
Update me on stuff at home...I will post more pictures asap.
Love you! Miss you!
