So today was the first day of classes I have done pretty well so far considering the lack of alarm clock in my life at the present time. My body clock woke me up @ 6:09am, snoozed my clock and got up again at about 7:45am. Breakfast is from 8-845am, classes from 9:10am - Noon. Lunch @ 12:30p.
Prof. Watson introduced the course, and told us that if you miss more than two lectures without a valid reason, you are kicked out of the course, and you have to go home.
We did an introduction in the course, which is called: Rights, Freedoms and Responsibilities in Criminal Law: Historical Origins and New Directions in England and Canada - pretty easy day today.
Had lunch, then went off into the city with the girls - got my sim card for my phone and "topped it up" (meaning put money in the card), because it is pay as you go.
I will email you all my #, text only please. Unless you all want to pay an arm and a leg.
Walked around the city centre - took pics of the Sheldonian Theatre and surrounding area, Blackwells (a

I am telling you, I am SO glad to have brought alot of cup a soup. The cheapest I've seen so far here is about 0.49p, which is about a dollar. For a cup a soup? FORGETABOUTIT! I got mine at no frills for $0.32 (about 0.15p) thanks! Only in Oxford story Celia, Chriselle and I went to go find a church to go to mass yesterday, and so we went to St. Michael's beside where we lived, and there were two people praying and what not. The first lady, had a baby carriage beside her, she turns it around, and inside was a doll. But she was treating it like it was a REAL BABY! We all gave each other the eye silently, to signal like.. "did you see that? what in the world?"
As soon as she started talking, you can tell there's something not fully right with her. Then..Allison and I watched her play with the baby, adjust its position to make it more comfortable and fix its

We had enough self control not to burst out laughing in the church.

Anyway, on to what we've all been waiting for, pictures. I'm on top of the updating because we haven't gotten into the swing of things in terms of classes yet, but once we do, it'll decrease. Just so you know.
