Today I attended a compulsory session for all Study Abroad students called "Study Skills". I learnt absolutely nothing. Although I did suddenly appreciate the fact that back home I don't even have to think twice about how to reference anymore. I'm going to have to learn a whole new style here. Ugh.
Then Berlin and I hit Oxford St. Bought something for Sophia from Forever 21. Also bought basic cheap clothes from Primark, because I really need clothes.
We walked all the way to Marble Arch, and I took a photo, just to prove I was there. I'm a bit over taking photos, really. I'm no longer a tourist, just a student.
Also, today I found the lollies I was chewing when I lost my first tooth! I don't know how I recognised them, but I guess there aren't many lollies around shaped like pigs' heads. I have no idea how some Marks and Spencer lollies made it to my flat in Penang, but hey. I got so excited I took a photo *excited*
Got back 2 hours ago and I have no idea what I've done. Apart from done my bed, snacked, and umm... gone online. The internet tends to do that.

After dinner I went exploring around the halls. I haven't had much of a chance to do that- I'd just found the closest toilets/showers/kitchen, and the shortest route to the dining hall and common room. The essential places. Today I went exploring a little more. All the main facilities are in the oldest building, which is done up in a Victorian style and is really pretty. I've even seen the biggest bedroom in the building, and it has a nice fireplace (although boarded up and used as the head of the bed). In this building I found the 2 little libraries,
and music room, and had a tinker on the (horrible) common room piano, but I didn't find the computer room or TV room. Will explore further another day.
Met some really loud exchange students. I suddenly appreciate quiet.
