Who wants to come to London with me for a week in September? NYC-London tickets are just under $500 right now on Student Universe.

Soooo missing England right now. Need to toast a crumpet, spread clotted cream on a scone, and drink a gin and tonic.

Perhaps not all at once, though. That could be bad.

Great British Foods, the top twenty-five.

(The other top seventy-five are in parts I, II, and III.)

London explosions

No words. Not looking forward to the Metro ride this morning.

kmmatero is adorable. She was plugging away on her set model last night, and I was quietly reading/periodically cheering her on. Precisely at midnight, she looks over: "Happy Birthday!" Thankee. :)

St. Patrick's Day was pretty low key. I spent the evening baking cookies, watching Scrubs, and cutting out wee people for Kristy's set. Her room is ( Read more... )

Thanks to everybody for the good-travel wishes. My Gmail inbox feels loved. :)

It's haunting me. I thought I'd be able to get away from it by crossing the frickin' ocean...

Band Aid 20's 'Do They Know It's Christmas?' just came on CD101 -- the local 'cool music' station that I'd expected more of. I thought you had higher standards, Andyman!

Feeeeed the wuuuu-uuurld...

The token last post from England. Yay! I'm actually very sad to be leaving -- but also so excited to go home, especially after only an hour of airport experience. (I just decided that I hate airports. I just don't want to deal with all these PEOPLE and their gi-normous families anymore ( Read more... )

Hostel is booked, as is a ticket for His Dark Materials: Pt. II -- w00t! I'll save the train ticket for Thursday, and give myself a little break (plus the two exams tomorrow will mean I'm a bit pressed for time). Also reserved a wee holiday gift for myself yesterday *nerd alert* -- apparently I've decided to just say screw it and let my bank ( Read more... )

The last 2 and a half weeks have been utterly horrible, in terms of work. Psychologically, I've finally taken a turn for the better (yay!) -- but the workload came out of nowhere and kicked my ass. We've reached that point in the semester where everybody needs a break from independence, and is ready for some parental coddling -- which I was lucky ( Read more... )
