Lunar Eclipse (Or Lack Thereof)

Apparently last night was the lunar eclipse. It was reported to be visible from England around 3 AM, so a couple of us decided to stay up so we could go hang out on the Downs in the middle of the night and look at it. We all manage to keep each other up until that ungodly hour and we go out and start walking up the hills around campus. Of course, since Brighton is on the sea, during the night, the entire sky is completely foggy and cloudy. So good luck trying to see the moon with that. We weren't quite ready to admit defeat so we continued to wander around and we came across all these cows just standing around, hanging out. It was completely dark out and we didn't see the cows until we were right up there next to them. One got startled and ran away to another cow and but I personally felt as startled as the cow. I'm sure they are more afraid of us then we are of them, but seriously, those are big animals. If one doesn't want to play nice, it could easily knock you over. I don't really have much of a desire to go cow tipping anymore. So yeah, we continued to play around on the Downs for a little while until we decided that there was no way we would be able to see the moon and went back to our dorm, ready for bed. Kind of an odd experience. Kind of fun. It's 9:30 AM right now, though, and I have class in 30 minutes, which I am not awake for. Ridiculously knackered.
