Sunday and Monday

Sunday was pretty amazing - I woke up early (at least for me) to head out to Hillsong Church. The service was AMAZING; it was like being at a concert, and it was hard for me to believe that I was there. The sermon was pretty good too. It was "Vision Sunday" where Hillsong states their goals for the year, and the global churches of Hillsong (Australia, Paris, Cape Town, etc.) made a documentary of sorts to show to their congregations. It was an amazing time, and I'm definitely looking forward to next Sunday. After the service, I met with Jay and a few of her friends for lunch. It was an amazing time, and we ended up just talking for a long time. I headed back to the house to start on some homework, consisting of mainly reading.
I headed out to Tesco for some dinner, then came back to the house for the Superbowl! It was pretty exciting, even though most of the house had gone out to a local pub for drinks (it's a dry house). We watched the game until a little bit after half-time, but it was already close to 2 AM (we're on a 5-hour time difference, so things like this are difficult...), so we ended up heading to bed.
Today was pretty amazing as well; I got up for class - British art history. The first half of class was a little long..I hadn't had coffee yet, and now I know that I need some sort of caffeine in the morning...
Other than that, it was pretty interesting. We went through an overview of the pieces that we'd be seeing and what we'd be studying. I'm particularly partial to the photo-realistic paintings; it takes SO much skill to paint like that, and I can definitely respect the artists.
After class, a few of us went out to get some lunch at a local sushi/Chinese restaurant. They offer a giant container of rice and curry/stir fry for about five pounds. It's a really great deal, and you can definitely get two meals out of one serving.
Most of the afternoon was devoted to homework, even though a few episodes of The Office slipped in there somewhere. We had a traditional British dinner - fish and chips. Awesome. I'm pretty satisfied. And now it's just more homework...
I have tomorrow off, and I'm hoping to not fill it completely with homework, but at the pace I'm at right now...
Tomorrow should be good though - we're seeing our first play that night. "11 and 12" off the Barbican tube station. I'm definitely looking forward to it. =)
