This is just to say...

...that I have quite talented housemates.  I thought their various skills were too good not to share.

1.) An obnoxious amount of the lovelies play a musical instrument and/or sing...and they're GOOD. Therefore, I get to hear heavenly music as I complete my homework. Hence, the video. Compliments of Elisabeth, Christy, and Connor. They're rockstars.

2.) Everyone here seems to be able to cook yummy food. Cool part - most of them are dudes. Major props. They will not have a problem finding ladies.  PLUS, some of them have the added bonus of being able to take a rabbit, skin it out in the yard, and cook it for dinner...Anthony from Pennsylvania, represent. Meet Thumper.

3.) They all have a superhuman ability to study quietly in the living room for an extended amount of time.  It's actually quite fascinating - I get peer pressure to study rather than forget schoolwork...probably (ok, definitely) something that's good for me.

4.) A lot of them have a heart for the Lord and constantly learning more about Him, and they are so encouraging to me, especially when missing Biola :)

Oh, and only one difference that I noticed today:

• Homeless in Oxford > Homeless in America. They always have cute, dirty dogs with them, and they sell magazines or newspapers. Way to be proactive, England!

If we're counting last post too, I'm afraid the score is somewhere around:

• England: 11, USA: 4. It's okay, America! Half of you say you like Europe better anyway!

Until next time, love you all :)
