Things I like about England:
-the architecture
-the accents
-the Brits
-the cider (and the beer... and especially the perry! [pear cider])
-digestive biscuits
-tea... all the time.
-my classes (and the profs... though only one of them is English)
-hearing the word "cheers".... 5 billion times a day
-the city of Bristol
-spiritual experiences in gorgeous Cathedrals
-history... EVERYWHERE
-the chocolate
Things I don't like about England:
-the university registration process
-the exchange rate (oh GOD the exchange rate.)
-the plumbing
-calling the first floor the ground floor and the second floor the first floor (and all the times I've stupidly gone to the wrong floor because of it)
-"pants"
-the hills
-the idea that trolleys at the supermarket are for old ladies.
-the positively exorbidant rates for laundry (which i'll have to deal with soon, because i'm almost out of "pants")
-"squash" yuck.
