Stag's Head


Hiii everyone! Just a quick update from the land of Guinness and (thankfully) chocolate digestives!

I have to say that Trinidadians are way closer to the Irish than we are to Americans. We're both a lot more...relaxed. Also, we arrive 10mins late for everything.

I would type more tonight but I'm exhausted and have to be up early so instead I'm posting a video to summarise my night...I highly recommend watching it!

I guess the only other interesting thing I can really say is that I have (so far) no Friday courses. Hopefully that won't change tomorrow but you never know.

Oh ALSO, I've concluded that videos are the lazy person's substitute for actual blogging because seriously it's SO much easier to ramble on in a video than it is to type this all out. I think it's because when people take the effort to read what you're saying they expect more from you. Doing a video means you're put on the spot so people go a little easier on you. Plus it takes them less effort to process it.

  1. Great seeing you, but this is way too lazy - especially for someone with literary ambitions like yourself. Keep on keeping us updated nevertheless. And good luck with the early start tomorrow.

    Lots o'love.

  2. Glad to hear you aren't desecrating your campus, though I can't imagine you surviving the embarrassment if you did.

    And if you're going to name your blog Adoxography (which I looked up in order to understand) you had better be providing us examples of your "fine writing on trivial subjects", emphasis on the "fine". Although I did enjoy hearing you talk about your adventure. Good luck with getting your class!

  4. digestives! :D

    Aww, I'm glad you're having fun! (and yay for crazy stuff...it just wouldn't be study abroad without the crazy stories!) and I totally agree with the whole arriving 10 min late for everything, but I don't think the Japanese would be big fans... :/
