This has been the best experience of my life. I have loved most everything about this city. I met the most wonderful friends that I know I will have for the rest of my life. I am so grateful and blessed to have gotten to have this oppurtunity.
Friday night me, Krystal, Kristen, and Julia went to the Texas Embassy. I decided to geta Strawberry Margarhita and it was so delicous!! After that we met up with Julia's friend Toirsten and went to a park and listened to an orchestra play. It was so relaxing and really fun. Later that night we met up with Keely and Jon and went dancing. We had such a fun time being together and acting goofy adn celebrating our last night in London together. After that we went back to the dorms and finished up last minute packing and said a few goodbyes. It was so so sad. Krystal and I got about 2 hours of sleep and then woke up for more sad goodbyes. Kristen walked me over to the hotel where my sis and mom were. I was so happy and excited to see them! But I was also so sad to say goodbye to Kristen. I am going to miss all of my friends so so much!
Now me and my mom and sis are having a fun adventure together!
Thank you God for such an amazing summer!

After class me and Kristen came back to our rooms and started packing. O boy is it overwhelming to try to fit 9 weeks worth of stuff into two bags! LEt me tell you that it is not working out so much for Hilary!! Later that afternoon me and Kristen went with Keely and Bob to the Dutch Pancake where I got some yummy nachos!! Then me, Keely and Bob went back to Portobella Road and Keely did a lot of suv shopping! I didn't buy one thing! I was so proud of myself!! TOnight is going to be a relaxing night and I am going to spend it finishing with my packing and washing a few clothes!! Tomorrow is going to be a very long and full day. Hopefully we will make it to Greenwhich and then tomorrow night we are planning to stay up all night long! Yikes! I am not looking forward to it at all!!!! Here comes the diet cokes for Hilry!!!

The last week.. :(
Time is going by way way tooo fast. I can't believe that it's already Wednesday night! I am going to miss it here so so much. On the other hand, I miss everyone from home so much and I am really ready to see my momma on Saturday. This week has been a weird one. I am having a hard time shaking this cold thing but I am trying to see everything that I want to see. Monday I went to class at the V & A. I absolutely love the suv shop there! I can't wait to go back and get some cute stuff with my mom and sis. After that Kristen, Krystal, and I ran to get some snacks at a pastry shop and then went to Porobella Road where I found a cute BEatle's bag and a really cute dress. O Boy am I spending too much money here! That night me, Krystal, and Keely went to The Giraffe with Keelys dad Bob. We had such a good time. He was so nice and bought our dinner for us. Tuesday was presentation day in class. I was so nervous but it really wasn't too bad at all. After that we went to the British museum for afternoon class and saw the marble from the parthenon and the rosetta stone. It was a really sweet place. Me and the fam are definately going to go back there next week. We were supposed to go to the John Soane Museum afterwards but we ended up at Chipoltle with Drew and then just headed back home to relax. That night, Krystal and I went and saw Letters to Juliet. It was so cheesy but so so cute. We had such a fun time and laughed all night. Afterwards we just walked around and ended up at a slot machine place where I decided that they are definately not for me. :) Today I was feeling so tired so I decided to skip review class and slept in until 12. This afternoon me and Kristen went to H&M and lunch and Ben's cookies. I have to say, I might miss Ben's Cookies more than anything else here. They are the best cookies that I have ever had in my whole life! When we came back to the room, I fell asleep again for another 2 hours. Tongiht we went to dinner downstairs and then got ready and went to Phantom of the Opera. I absolutley loved it!! It was so incredible. The man who played the Phantom had such a great voice. It gave me the chills! Now I am getting ready to take my final tomorrow. I can't believe that me last day of school is tom. That is insane. Time has gone by so so so fast!! Slow down Slow down!

Oops..
Ok well I have been trying to put off blogging about the trip, but I guess I'm going to just have to do it. So Wednesday afternoon we get to the airport all ready for our trip. It started off bad right away when the man made me move all my liquids into one bag. It was so rude and I had an awful attitude about it. Afterwards I felt a little bad, but he was definately rude too. So we make it through securtiy and everything with no problem and then we get to the terminal and we start looking for our flight. It is not on the board. So we decide to go ask someone about it. He looks at us really funny and asks us if we've even looked at our boarding pass. Turns out our boarding pass is for 5:55 not 17:55. O man. Dumb military time. So we missed our flight and the next one want until Sunday. SO we lost our money and didn't get to go to Greece. I was so upset. I had myself a little breakdown but then felt much better and just moved on. So that night we just felt sorry for ourselves and went to Pizza Hut and pouted. Friday we decided to take a trip to Brighton so we made the plans and just hit the road. I should mention that I had been feeling bad since Wednesday night so I was a little worried about the trip. Brighton was so fun. We just walked along the beach and did some suv shopping and then went to HaHa, a restaraunt that Krystal and I went to the last time we were there. We had a really good time and had a really fun waiter. That night we went and sat on the beach while the sun went down. It was so beautiful. Friday morning I woke up feeling absolutely terrible and running a fever. I went to lunch with the girls but then had to take the train back by myself because I was feeling so bad. The rest of the day was spent on my bed. That night I went to Whole Foods with Keeley and got some yummy food and started feeling better. Saturday we spent most of the day just hanging out around the dorm doing laundry and such. THe other girls were sunburned and really tired from the trip too. We went out for lunch and dinner but didnt really do much else. This morning I slept in really late and am feeling much better. Krystal and I just went and grabbed some lunch and now we're back in the room catching up on some things. I think I'm going to take it easy for the day and make sure that I get all the way better before Momma and Jessa get here. I am so so excited to see them and show them the city. I hope they love it here as much as I do!
