Second Week of School

July 23, 2007
London, England

This morning we had a quiz in my class, and I was not at all prepared, having had to miss Thursday's class. Luckily it did not count, because it was really tough. Our instructor just told us that we should know the answers to all of the questions on the quiz before the final exam. We also spent time studying the five canonical victims, some of the suspects, and the police case.

After class I went to the Victoria and Albert Museum, where I took a tour before doing somem self-exploration. I thought the museum was pretty neat, and was really excited to see that they had a Canova statue. There was not a whole lot of artwork there that I recognized, but the museum has an extensive collection, and their I would definitely recommend its two English Galleries, as well as its collection of Casts.

I went back to the dorm to make some dinner, before helping the rest of the group plan its excursion to Edinburgh. I was very tempted to return to Edinburgh, but decided that I should really try to look at some more stuff around the area, so am going to take a couple of day trips this weekend instead.

I had decided that I was going to try to read a good chunk of Harry Potter tonight as well, but just after I settled down to read some I was interrupted by Freya and Allie (they both go to the University of Michigan). We ended up hanging out until the wee hours of the morning again.
