T minus 27 days until I leave! I think I've gathered everything I need and it's all I can do not to pack my suitcase now! Time has dragged these past few weeks as things have slowed down a lot at work, and I'm sure it will only get worse. I'm trying to enjoy every day, but it's hard for me to be content sometimes!
My boss went to Oxford last year with a group of students and took a bunch of pictures for me so I could see where I was going to live. The top two pictures are of buildings near my dorm. The kitchen picture is the kitchen in my apartment. Notice the cute little washer and the very small fridge! I'll have my own bedroom and I'll have to share a bathroom with the boys I'm babysitting. That will be a new experience for me!! The college we are teaching at is called New College, which is a little misleading since it's been around for hundreds of years! Hugh Grant and Kate Beckinsale both graduated from New College! If you want to see an aerial shot of where I'm going to live, go to http://maps.google.com/ and type in "Venneit Close, Oxford," then select "satellite". My bedroom window looks out over the Thames!
