Oxenford
I spent a week in Oxenford from the 18th to the 25th of June. It was an exhilarating time with lots of my friends finishing exams and some of them leaving university, so I was extremely glad I got to see them. I felt kind of like a cheat because I was the only person there who hadn't just gone through months of the most gruelling and pressurising exams that exist for undergraduates, but the fact of finals made everybody appreciate the time afterwards even more. We had a disastrous barbeque, went punting, played frisbee and football in meadows, drank cheap Pimms in the bar, played Age of Empires and MahJong and basically did very little apart from enjoying ourselves.
It was pretty sad saying goodbye to people I've known and loved for three years (one in absentia) but on the other hand, I consider myself lucky that so many of my good friends are staying on into fourth year and will be with me next year in one big (college-owned) house. Good (stressful) times ahead!
