Traditionally in British universities, Week 6 is a week of no class, designed for catching up on work and preparing for upcoming assignments. So, naturally, we went to Barcelona.

I'm about a month and a half into this whole abroad thing. By now I think I thought I'd be well adjusted and settled and saying "trousers" left and right. This is not the case.
I feel like I have been neglecting to write about one of the biggest parts of this program, and that's the group of Kenyon students that are actually here with me. Today, we're going to Bath, so I thought I'd write a little recap of our group adventures so far.
So far I've: ridden a mechanical bull, drank a pitcher of Sex on the Beach, and gotten a debit card that says "Mr. Kathryn Lindsay."
I've officially been in England almost two weeks now, and I'm having a whole bunch of mixed emotions that are too complicated to hash out here. What I will talk about, however, are the few things that have been somewhat jarring to get used to--and the things I don't think I ever will.
