The Fun has only begun
hey all! i can't even begin to tell you how wonderful london is. i don't even know where to start. although i miss the haven a lot, you shoudl see my flat. it is sooo amazing so that in itself has just been incredible! the first day we got here we got a walking tour around our super cute area, had fish and chips which were mainly the skin of the fish so pretty gross, then that night we went on a pub crawl. yes, me...raegan went on a pub crawl. my roomies and i only went to a couple because we were so jet lagged, but it was super fun. the pubs here are soo cool. we went to a super cool one called black widow which was super goth, but played like the most random american music in it. i think it was having an identity crisis or something. we found our way back home that night even in the dark so we were super proud of ourselves!
yesterday we went on the readers digest bus tour of london so i saw all the biggies like big ben, westminister, tower of london, etc. this city is amazing. we then got dropped off in piccadilly for lunch. we wetn to china town...yes seriously i'm getting chinese in england? what is my deal here? after lunch we looked around before heading over to see the complete works of shakespeare abridged which was very funny, although i think it was better when i saw it at salina community theatre..no kidding! after the show we had to find our way back so we road the tube. last night we kinda just hung out and then at 10 2 of my roomies and i walked around why i played my harmonica. it was really funny, but maybe you had to be there.
this morning and all day today we had our orientation at imperial college and met all our teachers. tonight i don't know what we are doing, but we're thinking something free. you'd be amazed at all the free things to do here. it's very nice since it costs like a billion dollars to do anything else thanks to exchange rate.
all in all, it's just incredible. we're starting to plan some weekend trips like to scotland and ireland before heading over to the mainland. i'm trying not to get hit by cars because they drive even worse than springfield drivers. i feel like i'm in a frogger game when crossing the street. also, there are some beautiful men here..... :)
well, i love you all and miss you just as much.
