Oh Cambridge...


To all and singular (stole that from a plaque somewhere in the college),

I have been ridiculously busy recently, so I'm sorry I haven't been posting like mad. However, for those of you that know me well, busy is what I do rather than a specific time for me. But I digress...Life at Cambridge starts IMMEDIATELY when you get back. I had essays (and still do) from the first day back on. Despite this, it has been good to see all of my friends here again. The adjustment to come back was inexplicably easier than the beginning of last term, and it will be hard to leave it (despite how much I really miss America). I have had tons of choir rehearsals for special services, and we (the choir) are providing the chorus for a performance of Fidelio (Beethoven opera) in London...really cool, but it means a lot of extra rehearsals. The Cambridge Winter Beer Festival was last weekend, and it was really cool because all of the little microbreweries from around the area bring their real ales (flat beer), and you drink out of a little tankard...I love English culture. There is another festival in May, in addition to all of the May balls (which are actually in June, but I'll get to that in a couple of months). I hope that everyone at Jewell is having a good start to the semester, all of my other friends are enjoying life as usual, and that my family knows that I miss them dearly. Best to you all, and feel free to facebook, email, or skype me (codyjohnson1208), because I would love to hear from any of you (hard to keep up over here).

Cheers,

Cody

P.S. The picture is in front of the Astrological Clock in Prague...Pretty cool, and cold (like zero degrees F cold).
