time to do some school :(
Well today was supposed to be Stonehenge day, but that got postponed to Wednesday so now it has become school day. I am going to be spending the day writing my history essay and then hopefully getting it finished for Friday. If it happens, then I will have beaten my procrastinating record! Here's hoping! Also, I found some Ranch Dressing at a store so tonight it Salad with Ranch in the Cafeteria. Woot Woot! O the simple things in life. :)

Brighton
Today I got to go to the Southern beack town of Brighton. It was so beautiful. It has been such a long time since I've been to the beach and I really enjoyed it! The day was kind of a bummer because we hit a ton of traffic on the way there and on the way home because of a bike race going on from London to Brighton. I think I could have gotten there quicker on a bike! :) O well, once we got there I got to see the Brighton Pavillion that George IV built. I also had a big lunch at HA!HA! and then walked along the pier and got some ice cream. It was so cool being at the pier because thats where Wimbledon was filmed! After our long trip home, I got some Chinese food and then got ready for bed and am now on my computer! Time to catch some Z's for my busy week ahead! Good night!

An action packed day in Stratford
Stratford Upon Avon is totally amazing! We had such a good time today. It started out super exciting when our coach bus clipped another car and spun it around. I was asleep when we hit and I got thrown into the seat in front of me. It was kind of painful but I still laughed about it. Before we arrived in Stratford, we stopped at Shakespeare's mother's house. It was so fun. It has been converted into a petting farm too. I got to see pigs, goats, cows, and owls. Of course, I also got a lot of fun suvs! Later we made it into Stratford and toured Shakespeare's childhood house and where he was buried. It was such a beautiful city and I had so much fun hanging out with Kristen, Keely, Chelsea, Jess, and the Julias. The ride home was not as eventful and I got to sleep most of the way. When we got home we went to Pizza Hut for dinner and now Im back in my room getting ready to hit the sack since we have to be up in the morning for our trip to Brighton!

Brick Lane
Today we went to Brick Lane in East London and ate some curry. It was actually really good!! After that we just walked around Piccadilly Circus for a long time and had a good time. The rest of the day will now be spent chilling out and watching movies! I love London.

Week 4
Tuesday was spent in my room in my bed most of the day. I needed a recoup day and I spent a ton of time watching Alias, an old TV show on youtube. I did go to WHole Foods for lunch and got a great taco salad that was kind of like Chipoltle. Man do I miss Mexican Food. Thursday we went on a field trip with class to walk around the central part of London around Westminster and Trafalgar Square. Afterwards, me, Chelsea, Krytal, Hans, and Erin all went to Soho and ate at a really delicous Chinese place. The people there were very rude and did not like Americans but we still had a great time eating some great food! Later that night we went to the Royal Albert Hall and watched Swan Lake. It was really pretty and very amazing to be in such an incredible place that so many famous people have been in. Afterwards we went over to McD's to get a McFlurry and that was so delicous. Today I went to the Museum of London and looked at the modern London section. It was really cool to see how people lived in the past. I am going to miss being in a city with so much history. I just truly love it here. After class we went to see Billy Elliot. It was ok, nothing compared to Les Miserables but still amazing. Tonight we are going to walk around kensington and take some pictures. I am going to miss the beautiful city so much!
