Juice!

There are so many varieties of juice here.  I just bought some orange raspberry juice last night.  It's delicious.  And it isn't ALL expensive.  I just happened to be looking at the most expensive grocery store in town.

Upon my arrival, I met two of my flatmates, Libby (who's from Australia) and Dasha (New York).  They too me to another house, where I met more of their friends, and we watched the first two Lord of the Rings movies.  I always say I want to marathon all of them.  Never again.  I think everyone was in agreement that they are really hard to watch.  At one point, we realized that there was still an hour and a half left in the movie.  It was surprising and hard to deal with.  I fell asleep a bit, because I was tired, and movies put me to sleep.  When we got to part two of The Two Towers (we were watching the extended editions, which are separated into two parts each), Dasha and I went to the center of town to Tesco, the nearest and most expensive grocery store, to pick up a few things.  I got juice and clementines.  Also, apparently chocolate pudding doesn't exist here.  Major sad face.  Then, Dasha made us steak sandwiches and chips (potatoes).  Then, more Two Towers.  Then, a break for baking.  Grasshopper pie was made, and then we watched Source Code.  Then back to House 11 for bed-making, shower, and bedtime.  Today, bigger grocery shopping, and hopefully a tour.  Pictures will be forthcoming.
