at posting. gosh. i haven't posted in over a month! i completely got swept up in this europe business, and updating this blog seemed to be pushed to the back of my to-do list. things have been pretty intense over the last month--we finished tutorials and seminars and are now into the integral period of our semester. just a bunch of lectures, then a paper and test at the end...THE END, by the way = 16 days and i'm freaking out! i'm in love with europe, and i don't really wanna leave. being here has opened my eyes up to just how much of a bubble the states is in. i mean...even watching bbc news shows that american media is terribly censored and biased. blah. so basically...someone's gonna have to snatch me out of my bed on april 12th because it'll be a pretty depressing day.
while writing my seminar term paper, we experienced an EARTHQUAKE! (this was about a month ago...and i definitely should have written about it when it happened) so i was just sitting...talking on the phone and attempting to write about appearance vs. reality in shakespeare, when the ceiling started to shake. i thought i was going completely NUTTER so i just sat there staring at the walls, telling myself to chill out. but apparently there was an earthquake registering 4.2 on the richter scale in southeastern england that was felt in oxford. we were all freaking out though. no one died; but i think a piece of a chimney fell on someone...somewhere. my first earthquake happened in england. how sweet.
