hey there! i'm in cambridge! its so cool, but it feels so deserted right now b/c like everyone is busy taking the sat diagnosic test. the classes i take are communications studies in the morning for college credit and entrepreneurship in the afternoon. my comm tutor (prof) is a nutcase who hates america, has a huge ego, and thinks everyone should do drugs instead of alcohol and that we should eat pot. we just had a business competition b4 london, and my group was called xtc and i came up with the slogan 'get the feeling' and we offered massages and candy. my roomates are from miami and laguna beach, and they are both awesome! its so crazy, cuz none of the people i alwayus hang out with live closeby. i have friends from kuwait city, puerto rico, parts of asia, france, italy.......cambridge is awesome! theres lots to do and a pretty river with pretty punting boys. they always ask us to go puinting, so thats kinda annoying. crew is really fun, and on tuesday a girl fell out of the boat! its this tub thats supposed to be noncollapsble and is for learning, so to show us that you are safe they make u do all sorts of stuff in it like jump up and down, and she did that and fell out :-O i also went grass snowboarding, even though it wasnt grass, it was kinda like what u scrub stuff with in ur kitchen. when u fall it feels like a porcupine, and all of us snowboarders fell cuz it was so weird to board on! this guy and i were gonna go down the mountain at the same time and i was better than him so he goes, i cant go after her! ill eat shit! girl power! hahahahah. and then the first time we went to the teen club, a bunch of us were in the circle and this boy gets in to do the crip walk but he is doing it like so slow, so then i go in and go super fast and totally school him and everyone was just like pointing at my feet like woah. yeahhh girl power again! and we totally sang spice girls while walking over the tower bridge in ldon.
we went to london on thursday around lunchtime and came back last night. on thursday we walked over the tower bridge to the tower of london and i saw the crown jewels and the bloody tower. they have the biggest diamond in the world and its so pretty when it catches the light. going to see the crown jewels is like being on a disney world ride lol. and when u get to the realllly nice stuff u are on a moving track so u cant stop and look. then we went to leicester square and had dinner there and the superman priemere was that night so we saw all that and took pictures of kevin costner and kevin spacey and the director, producer, and all that jazz. then we saw a guy get arrested on the street. quite entertaining! then we saw guys and dolls.
friday i went to buckingham palace and saw the changing of the guards. there was a siiick amount of people there! then we had lunch in covent garden, and then i went to parliament/big ben/westminister abbey. my friend didnt wanna pay to go into the abbey, so we didnt go, and i really wanted to go into parliament, but we didnt have a chance. we also had dinner in covent garden and watched this street guitar player who played his guitar like a piano and it was soooo good! then we saw bloodbrothers. that was one intense show! they tell u the ending at the begninng and the first act sucks and is so predictable and retarded. its like ahhhh the twins die if they find out about each other, cue the scary music and lights, and then BOOM happy dancing and singing in a major key! the second act was better. and the writer had to be obsessed with marilyn monroe. omg they sang about her so much! lets dance and die and breathe like marilyn monroe!
saturday we went to the hard rock cafe for lunch and then i went to the theater museum. we went to this stage makeup workshop and my friend volunteered and they made her into an old wicked witch. it was funny. then we chose to go back to covent garden at nigght, and we spent so much time in this awesome store called lush with all these natural body products that are soo cool and smmell so good.
thursday im off to venice!
