Goodbye Freshers Week, Hello Freshers Flu

Freshers Week has ended and Freshers Flu has taken over, just in time for classes to start! 24 hours a day you can hear coughs and sniffles throughout the block and in lecture halls across campus. But this does not mean that Freshers Week was not tons of fun. It was a great way to meet new people and get so much closer to all of my mates from Blocks 4 and 5 in Lenton and Wortley Hall!

Saturday night was Love Your Hall, which meant a Pub Quiz ("Trivia Night") in the Dining Hall--congrats to Dave's team, the winners!--which was followed by a relaxed Block 4 girls night in with pizza and fun conversation. Finally Sunday was the Finale Event, a concert in town.

After the Finale Event, we had to walk back to the buses in the rain
and we are quite pathetic

We made it to the buses, wet and tired

It was a long week...

Thankfully I do not have Monday classes, which will hopefully give me a little bit more time for weekend trips, so I spent this Monday in town getting a few last minute things (flats, a belt, and wine for our formal dinner this coming Thursday). After my trip to town was dinner and the first of Block 4's weekly Monday Movie Nights--which meant squeezing 15+ people in my room to watch a movie on a 15 inch laptop screen. 



Monday Night Movie Night!!! So many people

Today (Tuesday), I finally started my classes with a lecture in the History of Christian Thought and Introduction to Islam, and a class on the New Testament later this afternoon... Wish me luck!
