After church, I met up with Sarah, Elyse, and Steve and we went to the Eagle and Child for my first official taste of fish and chips (and British, at that). Spending time with these guys has been so awesome! I love how close we're getting. After lunch, we went to get Sarah a phone (she got the same one that I bought yesterday) and then I got some toiletries from this awesome store called "Poundland." Essentially, it's a dollar store, but with pounds. But they sell full-size bottles of Herbal Essence shampoo and conditioner, and other such things, for a pound each. We were going to explore the other half of Oxford that we haven't even looked at, but we're all pretty wiped out.
I'm actually about to sit down to a light dinner of pasta with a little bit of melted butter, as today and the past few days have REALLY worn me out. My roommate is probably going to move some of her stuff in tomorrow, and I'm really excited to meet her! I think that living here for four months will pass by too quickly. I already can't believe that I've been here almost four full days! Honestly, it feels like I just got here, but at the same time, I feel like this place is already becoming home for me. I know shortcuts to get to different places and where to find good deals on things. I also learned how to not blow the fuse that knocks out power and internet to the whole house again... See? I'm already like a native. British accent to follow.
