off to school i go.....

well i started school again, how about that. after 5 months of pure summer i started school again. i dont have class on monday or tuesday so that is nice and my wednesday consist of two classes, thursday i have four, and then one on friday.

british life and culture (for international students it includes fieldtrips!!!!)
slavery and race in the usa
holocaust as controversy and history
british politics in the 20th centuryu go away from that

so those are my amazing classes. i like them all a lot minus the politics one. the teacher has a real bad stutter and he knows a lot about his subject but the second that you go away from his field he knows nothing!! you could ask him what color an apple is and he wouldnt know cause its not political or even better yet domestic politics. so we will see and i already have to give a presentation in 2 weeks. great!!! :( the slavery one is cake i know it all so far. and i get big points cause i can continually contribute to class discussion. its pretty cool. my holocaust class is going to be very interesting but i can already tell that they are going to expose us to some pretty horrific things...for sure not a class for someone who cant stand graphic details.

so i go to school in kingston upon thames but my dorm is across the bridge in hampton wick and i have to walk pretty far to class eachday. which is really strange for me since i am used to getting up at like 8:45 if i have class at 9:00 and getting there on time but here i have to walk through the town center and it takes me 20 minutes to get to campus. strange. but that walk is nice when its not raining!!!!

OH! good news i get to go to stonehenge and bath this weekend, or well actually tomorrow. i get to go with my british life and culture class. we take these fieldtrips now and again and this time we get to go to stonehenge and bath...pretty cool. minus the fact that i have to be up at penrhyn road really early ok well like 8:30 am. ok i really like you and all but my flatmates just ordered chinese and i am gonna go see what i can have that they dont eat...i am such a scavenger!!!!!!
