Rome

For a little end of the term celebration my classmate Chu and I went to Rome for a couple of days... can't wait to go back!


Sitting on the edge of the Tiber River with St. Peter's Basilica in the background


Chu is hanging out with the weirdly dressed Vatican guards


In front of the Parthenon


Chu and I at the Roman Forum, the center of Ancient Roman life


The two hour line to get into the Vatican Museum


It was worth the wait... Chu and I in the Sistine Chapel listening to the audio guide;the artwork behind us shouldn't need an explanation


It was a long day for Chu... he took a quick nap while I enjoyed a coffee in the Piazza Novena


Colosseum, sweet!

Pics from the Term

Here are some photos from over the past term...


The rarity of snow in the UK, classes were canceled from a little dusting


Judy and Raquel making lamb and potatoes for Greek night


A little Greek dancing after dinner


A little singing after dinner, it must have sounded Greek based on Heli's reaction


Spring time on Campus, the library looks quite appealing from this view


A little soccer with the boys


A little fun after soccer


Enjoying some carrot cake with the birthday boy, my friend Roger turned 23
