Recap!

TSo yesterday was a pretty eventful day here in Oxford.  We had a field trip to Winchester, which has a huge Cathedral, Jane Austen's grave, and Winchester College for school boys.  We left early in the morning to head off on an hour bus ride to Winchester Cathedral and I read my postmodern reading for my integrative seminar.  When we got to Winchester we immediately walked to the Cathedral to do a tour.  The Cathedral was beautiful, with many famous graves of old bishops, kings, and random Church attendees.
Here is a picture of Jane Austen's grave:

We had an eventful day of walking around and touring the Cathedral, college, and city.  The boys college was one of my favorites because it was so stereotypically posh. One thing to explain before I get into my story; colleges are primary schools for ages 13 to 18 and Universities are what we think of as "colleges". These boys were dressed very nice and walked around with their heads held high.  I even saw a little 13 year old boy who was dressed in black nice pants, an expensive navy blue pea coat, and slicked back blonde hair.  Needless to say, he was leading the pack of boys that followed behind him like submissive puppies.  I just had to shake my head and role my eyes because all I could think of was Draco Malfoy!

After we were done with the field trip, we got to a late start on the bus back to Oxford, leaving me worried because I had reservations at 6 p.m. for dinner at Jamie Oliver's Italian Kitchen in Oxford for my birthday.  Many of us were going out to dinner then to the 8 p.m. early showing of the Hunger Games as an early birthday celebration because Esther, Anna and I are leaving for Scotland to celebrate my birthday this weekend.  When the bus got to the bust stop, I ran out and sprinted to the Vines, got my stuff, and sprinted to the restaurant.  We all got there fine and nine of us had a great dinner and the restaurant even sang Happy Birthday to me!

After dinner we went to the showing and I absolutely loved it!!! The movie was so amazing and I recommend it, with discretion because it does have kids killing each other.  The point is to show a dystopian society and then goes in to sequels that lead to further rebellions to get out of the dystopian society.  It turned out to be a very great day that was very enjoyable.

OH I never wrote a blog post on last weekends events so I will just leave you with this.  Last weekend I went to the St. Patties day Parade in London with Courtney, Esther, Jesse, and Kelsey.  It was somewhat of a sucky parade, but we had a lot of fun.
Here is a picture from that:

Well now I have to go to Integrative Seminar and then on my way to Scotland for the weekend!
Tata for now!
