So While I am waiting an exorbitant amount of time for my first load of laundry to get done, I have decided to write another quick entry into my blog.
First and foremost, I absolutely love it here. I haven't had to drive in more days than I can count, and the only thing I must do is read books (Perfect world). Also, the people here are wonderful, and I have learned quickly what things to say and what things should be avoided.
One: Don't make jokes about titles (particularly ones concerning princesses) while applying for your Library card.
Two: Pants here are most definitely not pants but are instead underwear.
Three: Avoid using the word "fanny" at all cost (thankfully I was warned about this one in advance albeit I don't remember the last time I actually used the word "fanny"). Four: Cookies = Biscuits, Biscuits = Scones, Crisps = Chips, Chips = Fries, and Fries don't exist!
Five: Street food vendors are the best things ever created; There is nothing like a good Cheese & Chips (look above for translation) while walking home between 9-3 at night! They also serve Doner (Lamb) Kebabs, which I have yet to try but am looking greatly forward to it. They are a little pricey but smell absolutely worth it. Anyway, These are a few of the quick tips and lessons that one needs in order to function here in Oxford. Good times!
