Day 137 - Charlie & the Climate Factory
Tonight I went to the Christian Union meeting and the "pantomime" (really a play/musical) performed by some of the meteorology Ph.D. students. Both were very enjoyable and a little sad.The play, "Charlie and the Climate Factory" was great! We do something similar in the OU meteorology department, but it's nowhere near as big of a production as this one was. It was very funny, but probably would have been a lot more so if I'd been around the department longer and knew more of the faculty (who they parodied).
As always happens when I watch plays, it made me miss acting very much. But that's not what made it (and the CU meeting) sad. They were sad because they were probably the last times I'll ever see some of the people. Both the CU and meteorology department have a lot of great people who I've just started to get to know. It's sad to think I won't be able to know them better. There are two meteorology students who also go to the Christian Union who plan to attend the Univ. of Oklahoma as exchange students, so what will be neat. But I probably won't have another chance to see the rest of the CU people.
As for the meteorology people, I'll see some of them for the last time tomorrow. But quite a few of us are gonna get together for a "going away" night out on Sunday night. I'm very much looking forward to that, but it also will be sad, as it might be the last time I see any of them.

sorry, didn't get a chance to chat.
Hi Matt
This is Beth writing from Norman. I have just found your blog and it is great to read about your experiences in all of the places I used to live.
I too went on the Meteorology field trip and took part in the pantomime and remember the days of noisy people in the halls of residence and never being able to find your classroom at uni. Brings back fab memories. Lets catch up when you get back to Norman
see you soon
I'm so sad for you that you don't get to stay longer, but I'm so happy that you will be back here soon. Please be safe on the trip back, and call me when you get here. :)
