Today was the first official meeting for the term. I have never enjoyed an orientation before, but this one was rather nice. It was very productive and all the information was necessary to my stay here. The most enjoyable aspect was of course being with friends that I hadn't seen in a while and meeting new friends as well. The past few days were really interesting, many new faces and new places, so to have familiar people around is comforting. The head of OPUS (the Oxford Program for Undergraduate Studies) is great. A very warm and inviting guy, Deepak has quite a sense of humor. Speaking of which, I really love the British sense of humor (or should I say humour). Though it is often extremely dry, full of wit and grammatically eloquent my favorite aspect is how quick they are poking fun at very serious issues. For example, today a guest lecturer by the name of Martin Holmes was introduced with fairly impressive accolades in British society and politics then bounced onto the stage with brilliant energy and began to make fun of the Monarchy. I loved the irony of it all. Anyways, I am tired it is around 1130pm England time and I am gonna do something a bit more productive. Not that this isn't worthwhile though ;)
