The fastest two weeks of our lives: Cambridge


This is the sign for the building we lived in. It was really modern and felt like a luxury in comparison to Furzedown.

Ali: Hi again! It's been a busy two weeks attending the Summer Literature Program at Cambridge. I can't believe it has come to an end! We met so many smart, quirky, awesome people from all over the world (we miss you guys!!) and got a taste of the World-class Cambridge education (yes, in between all the partying and gallivanting around the town I actually learned a few things). These are pictures we took the first couple days in Cambridge, the architecture is awe-inspiring,,no wonder so many great ideas and top-notch thinkers come from Cambridge...more to come!

Ani: Our time at Cambridge went by so quickly that we had no time to update this blog. Here's a list of the classes I took:
Week 1
Far From the Madding Crowd and Tess of D'Urbervilles by Thomas Hardy
Ulysses by James Joyce
Week 2
Pride and Prejudice and Mansfield Park by Jane Austen
Don Quixote by Cervantes
All of the classes were interesting with good lecturers and I learned a lot. Some of the lecturers were real characters.
