As visiting students, we have constantly been told about the heavy workload at Oxford. There is a large gap between the amount of work expected from me in the USA at OSU and here in the UK at Oxford. I have been anticipating the work so much that I couldn't tell whether I was more excited or scared for it. However, now that I have set assignments, I find myself overjoyed to start studying again.
This year is bound to challenge me in many ways--intellectually, emotionally, etc. But I am finally finding my bearings here at LMH and settling in. It is a different sort of home, but one that I am enjoying very much. I know I will be overwhelmed, but it will also form me into a better writer, thinker, analyst, and overall person. It's important to look at the big picture and zero-in on details at the same time. So here's to academia and improving my intellect!
