Tell me why I ate baked beans and toast for lunch and then had it again for dinner! Man, I just really wanted some for lunch.... and then really wanted some for dinner... Worst food story I've ever blogged about. (for those of you who don't know, baked beans are not the same here as they are in the states) I'm trying not to buy a lot of food or anything because I'm going to Ireland and then I'm coming home in less than two weeks. I did make awesome tuna salad with peppers and sweet corn earlier this week that I will recreate tomorrow. Definitely something I'll probably bring back with me. God this is boring...
Ok so this weekend, we went to Bath first. The Abbey was ridiculous and the surrounding area had a huge outdoor Christmas market and pedestrian city. Very adorable. The Roman Baths were spectacular as well. It's crazy how a piece of Rome has been preserved in the UK for so long and the mix of Roman and Celtic mythology that exists in its walls.
Then it was time for Stonehenge. It was more windy there than on the top of the Eiffel tower. There was definitely energy there but don't ask me what I think it is. If you don't know anything about the location, look it up because it's fascinating.
We ended our tour at Salisbury Cathedral. It contained one of the original copies of the Magna Carta. That was pretty cool!
Just have to make it till the end of the week then I'm back in Ireland. And it's going to be a completely different experiences because the regions operate differently. Doing the touristy thing there as well I'll have plenty of pictures.
On an academic note, I'm finished with the Discourse class. MAN I am a good writer. I forgot about my mad poetic literary skills. The radio interview is done, just need to wait to get my draft back from the professor then I'm done with that.
2 more papers have deadlines after I leave which means I'll need to complete them by next Friday. I have to submit them and get it stamped at a central desk. WEIRD. The UK has this crazy awesome thing called creative club and it's an archive of every advertisement in the UK for the last 10 years. That's been very helpful.
Ok sorry for the boring post. I'll have great material from Ireland later so be excited for that!
