I'm having a rather slow morning so I thought Id update again.
I am going to sign up for the gym and work out later, but I have to wait for Rachel
So I'm just in my room reading
its quite lovely

My dad requested some more details about Oxford- so here goes
We spent the day just walking around the city- George was our guide because he had been there before
so I spent most of the day making fun of him for assuming what I called 'An Alpha male mentalilty"
It was nice to have someone who knew where they were going,
but he was quite upset about being the only male in our group. which was hilarious.
There is no division between Oxford's cobblestone streets, towering catherdrals, and beautiful architecture of its University
and the shopping areas, fast food, and tourist shops
it was really intresting.
So we were able to pop into a Mcdonalds to use the toilet (No one here actually says loo) and then walk down the street to a really stunning church.
They also had a really lovely gathering of coffee shops and stores where we were able to rest in a cafe that was decorated with classic movie posters.
On our way out, we wasted some time in a small mall (that rhyme was accidental but fun) and we went in to a store called Primark, which I HIGHLY suggest to anyone who may be travelling through the UK. Think the fashions of H&M, but multiplied, and at bargain prices.
no I didn't buy anything, but there is another Primark closer to the University...

So Im going to go back to reading, Ive done my work for class thursday and I'm tearing through a girly book that I've borrowed from Rachel. Just one of those silly novels that you go through in about 2 days.

Hope everyone is doing well.

as always,
I love you
I Miss you
and Im thinking of you (Even you Jen, so there's no need to ask)
