Yeppers! I'm going to an Oxford study abroad program thingy. So Yay that I got into the program!! and two of my best friends are coming too! I just kinda wanted to share! YAAAAAY This means that at least 3 of my professors are under the impression that I'm smart or something.

And I may be able to spend some time in Germany with my friend's family. YAAAAAAAAY.

(Oh! and next summer I'm either going to Rome or Vienna!)

Thanks for letting me share :D

Congrats.
I've had a few workmates leave to go overseas and one is currently living around London. I'm pretty sure she's loving it. I think she's having a good time visiting other European places too.

Oxford's nice, I'd rather be there than Hatfield; a nowhere north of london. You'll have to visit London though, it rocks.

Congrats, that's very exciting. How difficult was it to get accepted into the program? Which (Oxford) college are you going to?
2007-03-14, 8:04 AM #18
When during the summer will you be in England? And how'd you snag such an awesome study-abroad thing?

Also, you must do what I never got the chance to do an MEET MAEVIE! And take pictures, of course! Must get more teapot ladies together!

well if you are going to try and meet maeve or anyone in london for that matter, you may as well add me to the list...

I spent two weeks at an oxford summer school back in 2001, it was one of the best 2 weeks of my life, k, we had lots of work to do but the partying during the evenings was great :D

The program starts June 24 and it's 6 weeks long. only about 5 people from my school are going, and when there was an opening, my professor pushed me to apply. It's a program in conjunction with a few schools in Virginia, and I think each takes about 5 students. And we'll be at St Anne's college.

oxford is a fair old trek from the place i call home during the summer, if i get my toe done then I'll have enough cash to go on a mooch to Oxford.

Hell, heres hoping I can get my toe done anyway, £14,000 is a beautiful thought.

England sucks. It produced Martyn and Detty.

I rest my case.

Jess has family there and the whole hotel room thing would work there too - I'll probably be sleeping in a Scottish hotel room closet but these are pits and piddles in the grand scheme of things - bring on those cramped sleeping quarters!!!

B - ah the 3 great british universities, Oxford, Cambridge, and Hull.

N - Yes?

B - You failed to notice that only 2 of those are great universities!

M - Thats right, Oxford is a complete dump.

I suggest all britassians advance on SUgarless as she enters the Airport, for a warm (and creepy) welcome.! :downswords:

I agree, although the airport may not be the best place to welcome her... What about somewhere in London.

I said oxford is 'nice'; cambridge is better

Also, you have to meet meave :)
