Midterm!
Wow, the past few days have been a blur. My time here in Cambridge is going by really quickly. I have to admit that I don't really remember what I have been up to the past couple of days besides reading and walking around the city centre.
The midterm today was okay. It was just an hour timed write on a question and wasn't too bad. Apparently it doesn't really count for anything but is just preparation for the term paper and final exam. I'm a little more worried about those things. We only have 8 more days of class, that's frightening!
Tomorrow should be more exciting. Everyone will be done with their midterms by then, and a bunch of people want to walk to Grantchester again for tea at The Orchard. I liked it there, it'll be fun to go back. I also have to continue working on my checklist of things to do before I leave. One of these days I want to get around to each of the historic churches here, and another couple days need to be devoted to the many museums. So much to do, so little time! And homework too!
On Friday we will travelling to the Globe in London to see The Tempest. I'm excited about that, I just read it for one of my classes last quarter. Saturday and Sunday are free days and I'm planning on going to Ely and Oxford or York with some of the girls. Two other groups of people I know are going to Dublin and Paris, respectively, but it will only be for a day and I think it's too much money and hassle for such a short time. I'm a little conflicted, but I'll most likely end up staying here...there's still a lot in England I have yet to see.
It has been so warm here in Cambridge these past few days. I packed for cold weather! The sunshine has been enjoyable, though the humidity KILLS. Hope all is well back home!
