Rowing On

Rowing on is a qualifying race that we participated in yesterday. We did extremely well, and apparently this is the first time in a decade that Magdalen has had three women's crews. And, we were not far behind W2, so we could theoretically bump them in Torpids, which starts on Wednesday, and runs through Saturday; there is one race a day. When I was practicing with W2, they were actually really nervous about being bumped by W3, and I told this to the W3 girls, and they got pretty excited about it. It would be very humiliating for W2 if we bumped them. I really hope we do. That'll show them for demoting me...

Torpids dinner is on Saturday night, and I wanted to buy a new dress for it, but I decided to buy new shoes instead and just wear a black dress that I bought. I am slightly obsessed with the shoes. Photos to come.

Tyler (a friend from Hopkinton who is studying in Ireland this semester) is coming to London with two of his friends on Thursday, and they are leaving on Monday. Good thing he picked the busiest weekend of my life to come to England. Hopefully I will get to see him for a little while, though. It may just make me incredibly homesick... We'll see.
