Wednesday was pretty simple - breakfast, British Media, lunch, British Theatre, dinner, then tons of homework. One of the simplest days here thus far. =)
Today was pretty awesome, I do have to say. Woke up in time for breakfast and coffee, then had class and a pretty major reading quiz. Afterwards we headed to the British Museum. I have to admit, I hadn't been there yet, but it's insanely overwhelming. You really have to break it down into chunks because you can't do everything in one day. The best part: it's free. And of course, we live right down the street from it, so I will definitely be heading back.
Today we concentrated on Rooms 49-51, which doesn't sound like much, but we were there for a good two hours or so. It ran through the history late BC to about 800 AD. Tons of artifacts and a LOT of hoards (basically loot that people buried during the time). Photos to come soon!
My roommates went out to a quiz night at a local bar, so I'm taking advantage of the quiet night (as the sirens from an ambulance pass by)...Tonight's a pajama, listen to music, watch a movie night. I'm excited. It's good to be still for once - I feel like we haven't stopped going since we got to this city, and it's important to just take the time to relax. =)
