BANGS!!!

oh dear. new haircut. do I see highlights, too?? I thought you were broke (and don't try to say you did this yourself).

Grandma Ann, it's ok, I don't expect you to be able to tell us apart online, that's just not fair to anyone :).

Having a lovely time here, although we just got our syllabi and the classes look so difficult! I'm a little nervous, just because I haven't been in school for so long. But last night I met some people who did their MA here and they said that the Creative Writing program here is incredible, and that all of Norwich is like a city of writers and artists, so I can go to anyone for advice or inspiration, and that the professors will tear apart my work and make me feel like I'm a horrible writer, but all that critisism is actually a great thing because it means they think my work has potential! I only have to worry when I get papers and stories back without any marks at all.

I did some exploring of the city last night, it really is beautiful! All the buildings are so old. We walked by a GAP that was in the building where the first metal airplane was engineered. Even the GAP gets a gorgeous building with historic relevence.

Also, whoever told me that England was more mild than VT has never been to England. It's been freezing! and rain every day, in 15min intervals or pouring and then cold and grey.
