Wow, I'm very sorry I haven't posted anything in... three weeks?! I had no idea it'd been that long. Unfortunately I can't spend too much time at the moment because term ends tomorrow and there's quite a few things I still have to do. We had our final rowing race, the Fairbairns Cup, this morning. It went well, but I don't know our official time yet. Last Saturday was the Clare Regatta; it was about half as long but because the weather was way colder, felt like an eternity compared to this morning's race! I need to go get my haircut (first one since I arrived!), work on a couple practice essays due tomorrow, go to carol service at the college chapel and then undergraduate formal tonight (which is sometimes described as 'carnage,' though I'll have to behave because I need to finish my essays). I'll probably stay up all night working on them, turn 'em in before 2pm and go to the last seminar of the term, History of Thought, where we'll talk about the revolutionary 18th century German military strategist Clausewitz. Hopefully I can sleep for a couple hours afterwards, in preparation for the boat club formal dinner tomorrow night... whew!
Monday I fly to Edinburgh to see my good friend from Grenoble, Rachel, who I haven't seen since June 2006. I can't wait!
Oh, and because I haven't posted many pictures, here are a few... I'll post more this weekend! My new camera arrived, too, so I'm going to take plenty in Scotland.
A beautiful tree-lined walk on Jesus Green along my daily path to town

A view south on Trinity Street. Look at all the pesky tourists! I've become very adept at avoiding... or intimidating them!
