I think that if I weren't a psychology major, I would probably be a history major. I am absolutely loving my Great Britain Politics & Culture class. First of all, I told the professor that my favorite singer/band was Pitbull. He consistently makes references to that during class, each time using a different breed of dog. Some of the most common examples include the Yorkshire Terrier and Rottweiler. I crack up every single time and have to compose myself by laughing into my shirt or something like that. Let's just say - THE BRITISH ARE HILARIOUS. He also just has so many jokes and is so engaging. I am just eating all this up. What's funny is most people struggle to stay awake, and I feel like the class flies by incredibly quickly - even though we have it 4 - 5 hours a day. I just don't see how you can not be fascinated by everything that has happened in the past that leads to where we are now. I suppose I'm a bit of a History nerd...? We also had a seminar (7 students + professor for an hour) about what to do while we're abroad and various travel advice. The professor is just such a delightful man.
Yesterday and today have been more low-key besides my hours of class. Doing some laundry now. Went to the grocery store yesterday. Last night was 5 pound Curry Night at Potters Wheel, a local pub, so a bunch of my friends and I went out to eat. (Naturally, I got Chicken Tikka Masala). Adjusting to life in Wales quite well, I would say!
Looking forward to going to Brecon Beacon National Park in Wales this weekend! Updates to come soon, as always.
