COLLEEGEE

There are 38 colleges within Oxford. We are a part of Corpus Christi college, where students mainly focus on the Classics. Every college has a cathedral and operates under their own internal structure. Below is the Pelican sundial in our college's courtyard. Something like 30 different sundials on it that can tell you time, date, holidays etc...no idea how to read it. Our dinning hall is next, where we eat lunch everyday. A three course served meal, we are very spoiled. We had an etiquette lunch the other day and learned how to not embarrass ourselves at fancy meals. They served a full trout, head and tail. I was a little shocked when that was put in front of me but I ate it with nothing but class.

The last two pictures are of christ church college which is right by us. The big meadow is where I run daily (or try to). It goes further back and there are paths along the the Thames river....really pretty.
