Hello, everyone!
Sorry, family, for not posting yesterday. It was a long day of class, and then I spent the evening playing Banana Grams and having some great discussions with my friends.
Anyway, the professor of my pre-sessional class is great! I obviously find his British accent to make him that much more engaging, and he is quite funny. I have found, though, that I really don't know anything about Great Britain culture and politics. Oops. Apparently, many other people in the class do - at least the vocal ones. Nevertheless, it should be a great learning experience - we learned about the Great Britain political system yesterday and watched a movie to supplement the lecture about British film. I was definitely not a fan of the movie and was extremely bored, but that's okay.
On today's agenda: just came back from a library Orientation. Then I have class from 3 - 5. Should be good. Tomorrow, we have a field trip to St. Fagan's and the Big Pit. I think I might go look up what that is right now. Then, on Thursday, I have my first "tutorial/seminar" session, one of the most known components of the British education system.
In other news, BC emailed me telling me that I am eligible to apply for the Psychology Honors Program, which allows me to write an Honors Thesis, AND I AM QUITE PLEASED. I had been wanting that for a while.
Well, after this very academic email, I'm going to take a nap.
All my love!
