Harlaxton Day 14: Another beautiful day at the Manor

Today was a pretty good day at Harlaxton. Today was a class day, so I had a lot of free time to just relax and enjoy the beautiful day. First I had to get up at eight for class at nine. I got some breakfast, which mainly consisted of eggs and then got ready for the day. Class went by pretty fast actually and was quite good. We had to read some short stories the day before, so we spent a good chunk of the time talking about those. We also discussed some poetry and our professors told us the details about tomorrow’s trip to York.

Afterward, a few friends and I decided to play croquet as the weather was quite nice. I played horribly, but so did everyone else unsurprisingly. My friend Lorenzo ended up beating us most of the rounds but I got one win. We ended up playing for much longer than any of us ever expected and did not finish playing till around 4:30ish. Next up we had dinner which was quite lovely. I took a little time after this to work on a paper due in a few days but ended up procrastinating and getting barely anything done.

A few friends and I decided to order some pizza and watch a movie. We spent more time deciding what movie to watch than we should have but eventually chose one. We ended up watching “This is the End” which was okay but nothing too spectacular. Finally, I got ready for bed and played a few games of Super Smash Bros with by roommate. He absolutely dominated me most of the time, but I got a few good hits in. Once I got in bed, I watched some Brooklyn 99 on my phone before getting some rest and preparing for the next day and our trip to York. Overall, it was another great day at Harlaxton and was a blast.
