Oxford/Bath Update

Hello All,
I hope and pray this email finds you all well. I wanted to let you all know I am doing well in Oxford. I have two more weeks of class and then I am done! The time has flown by, but it also seems like I have been gone forever.

My time has been much better since I finished my first class. I have a lot more free time now and am enjoying myself quite a bit more. I have my second final on Tuesday, and then for the last week and a half I will only have one class. I finally took some pictures of Oxford! I am going to send an email with all my pictures after this one. There are a lot, so you don't have to look at any or all of them, but I will send them none the less. ;)

Last week my friend Melissa came in town. It was GREAT to have a friend here!!! We hung out in Oxford for a few days then went to Bath/Stonehenge/Salisbury. We went to see a show (We Will Rock You) in London as well and I took her on a whirlwind hour and a half long tour of the highlights of the city. It was my best weekend yet. Thanks Mel for coming! :)

Next weekend I am going to Edinburgh, Scotland with a girl I met on the trip. I am excited. Then I have one more week of class before my boyfriend, Daniel, comes in town and we go to Paris!!! I am also extremely excited about this. :)

I hope to send out one more update before I come home, but if not, I will send you the rest of my pictures and a final update once I am back. I get back to Dallas on August 9th and I get back to Houston on August 13th in time for church. I miss you all greatly! I am sorry I have not sent many updates. It is crazy over here. But know I am safe, I am having fun, and I cannot wait to come home!
Please email me back if you have time!

Oxford Update

Hello All,
I know I have not sent out an update in a while. I think I bit off more than I can chew as far as classes are concerned for the first week. I have survived my first week at Oxford! Yea. I have yet to see much of the city though, because most days I am in class for six hours and then I come home and study. I have my first final on Tuesday and then I only have two classes for the remaining four weeks. I think my life will be much more relaxed after Tuesday, Praise God!

It is so beautiful here. I will show you all pictures when I take some. Everything is so old and beautiful. It is amazing!!! I went back to London on Friday and went on a tour of Legal London. I then went to Blenheim Palace yesterday. It is 8 miles outside of Oxford and it is the birthplace of Winston Churchill. I will email you the pictures I took if you would like to see them, you can!

Anyway, I better get back to studying. I will send a longer update with pictures of actual Oxford later. Just wanted to let you all know I am still alive and kicking! :)
I miss you all!
