A Day At Oxford

So, yesterday I went down to Oxford. It was pretty awesome. There was a guided tour in the morning that took us to some of the historic landmarks. Oxford actually is composed of 39 different colleges. A couple of the colleges just have professors and faculty- no students! But, the tour was fairly interesting. In the afternoon, we had a chance to explore the city. That's when I discovered that Oxford is a great place to shop (a.k.a. lots of stuff- very cheap). So, I definitely took advantage of that. In addition while exploring, we came across this little outdoor market that sold everything from fresh fruits and vegetables to scarfs and electronics. I bought quite a few random souvenirs from this market. In addition to the gloves (which I desperately needed since my hands were numb from the cold) I bought the best apples there. I also bought an Oxford University sweatshirt- which was something I intentionally planned on getting.

Besides that, I have been working at my internship four days a week, going to class and exploring London.
