As Promised

As I promised in my last post, here is a photo of the view out my window.

As you can sort of see, there are several church spires. I hear them ringing their bells all the time. It's quite beautiful. The Hippodrome below has all sorts of plays. It's currently running Dirty Dancing, so every night at 9:00 this week I've listened to "The Time of My Life" as they open up the doors to let people out. Next they will be performing Peter Pan, starring David Hasselhoff as Captain Hook.

Below is a picture of the Humanities Graduate Center (where I intend to be living most of the time).

To the left of it is the main Humanities lecture building, where I have been told I will probably be having most of my classes.

Aren't European buildings amazing? However, as with the HGS (above), the outside is Victorian, but the inside is quite modern. This seems to be common with buildings in this area. On the way from my flat to classes there is an old monastery with ultra-modern department stores on the inside. It's very odd to look in the windows.
