By the second week of classes (the first week of October) my excitement of being in London had only increased and was still on the rise. My classes were all covering more and more interesting information. I especially began to enjoy my History module on British Horror Cinema and my English module on the First World War. My favorite part of these classes are the analyses we do on either the films we watch or the books we read. My favorite assignment so far was reading <em>All Quiet on the Western Front <\/em>by Erich Maria Remarque. The book was incredibly compelling and provided many new outlooks on life, war, and relationships. As enjoyable as my classes have been, the most fun I\u2019ve had here has been with the new friends I\u2019ve made.<\/p>\n<p>Whether we\u2019re drinking champagne on the top of the London eye or baking a homemade lasagna together, every experience I\u2019ve had with the people I\u2019ve made friends with here is unforgettable. I\u2019ve come to see during my time here that this trip will forever hold a special place in my head and heart. If I had a choice, I would spend another semester at QMUL or even another year. I\u2019ve truly embraced the school, the city, and the people that surround me.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Looking back on the first two weeks of October, my time in London seems to be a blur.
