It’s been a month since my last post—way too long.

Here's a quick summary of what's happened:

September 17th: London cultural studies field trip! This was pretty awesome, we did a walking tour of a bit of London, saw the Tower of London, and went to Merry Wives of Windsor at the Globe Theater! I really liked London. It's sort of like New York City, only the architecture is older and prettier and more people wear suits.
September 18th: The math teacher took students on a hike of the area. East Sussex is gorgeous. There was also a bonfire that night.
September 23rd: My 18th birthday! I went to London with my friends Maria and Stephanie and my roommate, Rachel, after classes ended that evening; we walked around Piccadilly Circus for a bit before going to our hostel (in a sketch-ass neighborhood) and then back out. We went to the "American Automat Brasserie", I think it was called, where I celebrated being legal with a milkshake. Good stuff.
September 24th: Went to Oxford Circus and was slightly late to an art history trip to the British Museum. Oops.
September 25th: Went on a tour of the BBC Centre, and returned to campus.
October 1st: Art History trip to the National Gallery! That was really cool. I got to see some Van Goghs close up, a lot of Spanish painting (Spanish pride~), Titians, da Vincis, and a bunch more cool stuff.
October 2nd: Went on a Music trip to a KRS-One concert. I'm not the biggest fan of hip-hop, but it was still pretty cool. Especially because KRS-One is from NYC (the Bronx). I'm more of a New Yorker when I'm elsewhere...
October 8th: Saw House of Games at the Almeida on a Drama field study. It was all right--I couldn't get over the (purposely) bad acting at the beginning, couldn't see the upper levels because I was in the very back row... Not the best experience.
October 10th: History trip to the Portsmouth dockyards! Basically, I went to a museum and wandered around on a couple of huge ships. My friends and I then went to Portsmouth's outlet mall and were basically late for the buses because we stopped at Pizza Express to get garlic bread. Totally worth it though.
This Saturday, I'm going to Canterbury. I'll try to actually remember to update after the trip!

I'm also starting to upload photos to a MobileMe gallery for easier viewing. I'll put up links when that's all done.
