A Message of Hope




Straight from the lips of Jay-Z: 30 is the new 20






In roughly 12 hours and 11 minutes, I'll be hitting Jigga-Man's proverbial 20 myself, and Van has come to Oxford for a few days to help celebrate. We spent most of yesterday on a long country walk. It was chilly but bright. Spring has come early in England and the trees are full of blossoms and singing birds. We tried to find a drink in two different pubs, miles apart, but both are only open mornings and evenings, so we settled for cokes from the Greater Milton convince store/post office/bakery.




We walked back to Cuddesdon for dinner and had a drink at the Bat and Ball pub in the village. When we got back to college, a group of my female classmates were in the common room inexplicably wearing sombreros. These apparently had something to do with their girl’s night out, but the connection remains unclear.
