O-MY! I just got ur e-mail, Angela!!!! I can't believe this! I wanna fly back rite now and talk to you!!!! Arrghhhh...
Ok. Today's last day of class and tomorrow's exam!!! O-M-G!!! I so can't wait till exam's over so that I can completely dive into the shopping mood!!! Hehee...
I forgot to mention in my blog yesterday that I went to see the play, Macbeth, the
Scotish play!! I am sorry to say that it was very horribly put together with a few exceptions. As we were watching the play, I had a fear that any one of the actors/ actresses would forget their lines. Most of them were simply "talking heads". Some just stood there and did nothing. The apparitions part were simply disco lights flashing everywhere. However, the ghost of Banquo was quite effective. And all the ppl that Macbeth killed all came on to the stage and repeatedly whispering the name "Macbeth" in the end when Macbeth was about to be killed by Macduff.
On to something new which somewhat ruins my mood here in England.
U know, I find that it really annnoys me when ppl are say things like what everyone thinks base on only what they, themselves, think is true.
"Everyone in the class loves the play."
"Noone is going to show up for sure."
U get what I mean? Arghh...it just bugs me so much especially when they try to present their
opinions as
facts, then trash my opinion for being wrong or not-as-good. Or maybe it's just me.
Anyway, I am gonna go and try to review for my exam now. Maybe I'll blog again later.
PS - I printed out all the e-mails that u guys have sent me during all this time I am in England (and my replies too). Printing is free here. Hehee... (evil ~~)

There's only like 4 more days and I will be home, back in Toronto!!!! YYEEeaaaahhhhHHHHhhhh!! Two more days till exam...NOnononoNOOOOOOooooooooooooooOOOooo...
*ahem*
I haven't been doing much for the past few days, just been wrapping things up in the course. I had to sit on the field today, working on a presentation with my group. It was soooooo horrible! It's field of SPIDERS! Every few minutes, I would see a spider or two crawling on me. Eeeekkkkk!!!! (I still feel like I have spiders all over me.) I also went shopping in Oxford today, got a few things. Hehee... I later went out to Summertown (a block from my residence) to buy popsicle (Magnum, yum~) to bribe my teacher. Lolss...
Yesterday was awesome! I went to Blenheim Palace yesterday where Winston Churchill was born. The scenery was soooooo pretty with the Queen's pond and an island in the centre. Inside the palace as very beautiful too! I would love to live there for even just a day and wear one of those very nice, old-style dresses!!! Oh! And the gardens were very nice and lovely with a fountain here and there. After that, we went to see the grave of Churchill and his family.
That's it for now.

What I did today:
Morning - class
Afternoon - Windsor Castle (too bad it's summer, or else it's very possible that I might bump into Prince Harry there!!)
Evening - Net
Night - Summertown
YES!!! Today is the first day ever in England that I get to
sleep in!!!! I slept for like 15 hours! I am sooo happy! Yeah, so I wake up at around 2:45 p.m. and do some work, then go to dinner (pig roast/ BBQ outside). My friends and I decide to eat our dinner in the common room where a ping pong table is available. We talk for a while then we want to play ping pong. It is sooo hilarious! Both of us can't hit!!! (I don't have my contacts on cuz I run out of the liquid thingy that u use to clean the lenses.) And now, here I am blogging.
I went to a concert at Sheldonian Theatre yesterday! It was EXCELLENT!! They played Vivaldi's
The Four Seasons!! Every note was played with such emotion that the whole concert simply blew me away! Oh! And I went swimming in the River Thame yesterday afternoon! It was a lot of fun; we jumped/ dived into the water from the bridge!!!! The water was freezing cold at first, but it was nothing once u got use to it. Then, we went to the pub. but didn't order anything with alcohol. U know what I found out when I went to the supermarket yesterday!? I saw this note that said u have to be 18 or older to buy and consum alcohol!!! Oppss...too late.
