Week 4
Here are some pics, foremost, of the snow we got this winter; my friend built a snowman and a snowdog.
It’s hard to believe we’re almost halfway through this term (of Reading classes). It feels like it has flown. This week, too, has passed quite speedily. I think the big event we’re all looking forward to is the trip to York. We have a quick presentation to give prior the trip, but I’m personally looking forward to the roadtrip. There’s nothing better than hitting the open road! Especially considering that it’ll be a 4-5 hour drive. =)
I haven’t done much this term yet, other than falling back into the routine of things. Raquel and I tried to get out to see the showing of Going Postal by Terry Pratchett, but it was sold out. On the 18th, however, we’ll be going to the British Museum, and maybe we’ll be able to catch a show or something after that.
Speaking of shows, I had the chance to see Phantom of the Opera, and I was stunned by how fantastic it was. The movie, as much as I enjoyed it, left out a lot of key characterization that the play held. The play was great, although the seats we were in obstructed our view of the dropping chandelier. It came down really fast, and it was amusing to see the audience’s reaction in front of us. I’m hoping to see The Lion King sometime this month. In April, I’m holding out for another opportunity to go to the Globe Theatre and catch another show as a groundling. That was a lot of fun.
Well, that seems to be all for now. We haven’t forgotten about the blog, just been extremely busy. It’s also hard to believe that it’s February. Today was beautiful blue skies, until it rained, at which point a rainbow broke out; it was beautiful.
