HARLAXTON DEFEATS LINCOLN!

We had our first game tonight! We played the Lincoln College Mavericks and we won! 48-35 ! It was a fun game. I didn't get to play all that much. The boys consumed most of the playing time, but I did play in the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th quarters. I had 2 points and 4 rebounds. We have another game at home on Monday (the 24th).

Only one more day of classes this week! Friday we are taking a field trip to Lincoln to check out some great Cathedral there. It should be a good time. We leave at 8:30 in the morning and we'll probably return around 5 in the evening. I'm thinking about taking an independent trip to London on Saturday. I'm looking at train ticket prices right now actually. . .

So I haven't been feeling so swell lately... sore throat, hurt neck, aches, all that good stuff. My throat is sooo swollen. I couldn't even swallow mashed potatoes or orange juice at dinner! grrrr. And I was hungry! All they will give us at the Nurse's Office are throat lozenges and some British form of Advil. I did what Mom always does to me at home.. she says, "open wide" and she sticks a flashlight in my mouth. I checked out my throat, it's pretty red and constricted. No white bumps though (don't worry, Mom). I heard a few people on campus have tonsilitis, so I'm hoping that I just have a cold. BUT I have alot of the symptoms listed on this website I found. :(

Well I should probably attempt to read some of my British Studies now. Hopefully sleep will help my sickly situation. I love you all... I'm having a great time, but I miss the States and all of you terribly.
