Thursday 10th July - Britishisms Galore

Nearly the weekend and the end of my first working week here! We interns have been invited out for work drinks tomorrow. Have also deepened my knowledge of oestrogen fluctuations and almost feel like a traitor to my English roots having to write 'estrogen' at work - we have been instructed to use no 'Britishisms', which is harder than it sounds when my fingers are flying over the keyboard, leaving me with red, squiggly lines adorning the page. Feel weirdly defensive every time it tells me 'colour' is not a word.....
