I'M IN ENGLAND!!!
So Lauria is going to flip her shit when she sees I updated but thats besides the point. Anyway I arrived here on friday and classes started monday but the system is a lot different here so a lot of people haven't had class yet and I didn't figure out my schedule until today. I'm taking an acting class, a modern british drama class, and a class on performance and identity that looks amazing. So yeah, I haven't been to class yet and I am still totally intimidated by all the brits. Marcy, Bobby, and I spend time together a lot but I also spend a lot of time with my awesome "flatmates." There are 3 boys and 2 girls including myself and I will be sure to post pics of everything, including them as soon as I possibly can. (You should def. check facebook for pics because thats where I'll post them.) And just so you all know I'm working with DIAL-UP over here so the frequency of updates may not be as much as I like because it takes so long to do everything with the internet technology of the nineties. Anyway, I plan to take a trip with the International Student Club this weekend to Oxford and if I can get my camera working properly I will take TONS of pictures. Um, I had really cheap fish and chips from a take-out restaurant yesterday and am still not feeling quite right. lol. From now on if I do fish and chips, its only the good stuff! I've been taking pepto like its my job! Anyway, I have to look a million times everytime I cross the street because I get so disoriented with everything on the opposite side of the road that i'm convinced even when the road is clear that I missed something and must double check again that i'm not gonna get wiped out by a mini the second I go to cross the street. There is also going to be a weekend trip to Amsterdam in March with the International group that I would really love to go on but I'm not sure I'll be able to cause they leave on a Thursday afternoon and I have class on thursday nights. Yeah, so i'm supposed to have class tomorrow but its not going to start until next week so Marcy and I might try and check out the local secondhand book store and maybe just get some errands done, as well as make sure we sign up for the Oxford trip. I am definately going to sleep in though because I got about six to seven hours a nite of sleep the past couple of days and with the recent jet lag I think its effecting me more than it normally would. Um, I no idea what to do with myself most of the time so far cause I haven't had class yet and there are like only 4 or 5 tv channels right now (we're looking into i guess its kinda like a cable box that extends the amount of channels you have and I guess they are affordable) and i never really seem to want to read or do much so I spend a lot of time on the super slow internet. Kinda aimless without a routine yet and kind of relatively numb to everything thats going on around me. But I hear I'll snap out of it eventually and I think it will help once I've started classes. Ah just lost the internet for the upteenth time a minute ago. The joys of dial up! Oh and if anyone has skype and a headset we can talk for free online, its exactly like talking on the phone but you do it over the internet, so yeah check that out. Ok well considering its 5:00 PM for you guys and 10:00 PM for me I'm gonna change into some pjs and start relaxing for the night. Probably hop into bed early and see if I can get rid of the rest of this jet lag and maybe my head will finally de-numb/de-fog and I can start experiencing this trip like it should be. So anyway, England is great and I hope all of you are well and you all need to update me all the time about your lives. Ok love you all. Night!
