So this has been a long time coming, but I am FINALLY in London, and FINALLY getting around to telling you guys about it....
I got here last Saturday and am SO in love. Im living in a dorm at Queen Mary University with 5 other kids (one american girl, one slovakian girl, and three british boys) who are all so very nice. In our hall of the building there are about three other flats and we have all been hanging out. Its like freshman year ALL over again. The school puts the international students on halls with "regular" first year students which has been really cool. Its a little wierd being so much older than everyone but I think it will go back to normal once classes really start because everyone will be on campus. This past week has been 'Freshers Week', which is like our orientation (except of course with legal drinking, there are like 3 or 4 bars on campus). We've all been going out every night and I think that it is starting to wear on me. Its been exploring the city during the day (today we went to Covent Garden and Bank Street to go shopping, but we've just been doing the whole tourist thing) then coming back to the flat, making dinner, and going out around 830/9 (everything here starts SO early). But its been a TON of fun, lots and lots and lots of dancing (which of course, I LOVE!)
Classes start Monday, which will be nice. Im ready to have a bit more structure in my life. I think that next weekend Im going to fly down to Madrid to visit Yoli. I can't wait. I miss her SO much.
Miss you guys! More to come.
xoxo, Mel.
