Hell

Well the past couple days have been rough. I stayed in some cheapo hotel that is pretty gross, but I just needed SOMEWHERE to stay. So let me write my story to you. So I get on the plane around 10:30 for London and we leave around 11. I was like hmm I told Carly I would watch P.S. I love You and so I started to. But it made me think about everyone and how much I was going to miss them, I had to turn it off. It was just too sad. I threw my blanket over my head because I was getting choked up. Anyways so I try to sleep, but don’t really get any because everytime I am close the plane would get bumpy. So we land and I am super tired. I get my stuff and head to U.K. customs. The guy wanted proof that I was studying abroad, an itinerary, a schedule, anything. Unfortunately, I didn’t have any. So he yelled at me and said he was going to deport me. Then just got mad and let me through. So I go to baggage claim, and of course, my bag doesn’t come through. So I wait in line or 30 minutes and they say they will call my flat if they find it. So I’m like whatever. There is a direct train from the airport to downtown so I jumped on it. It was nice, it was an express train, which means there are no stops. So I get to the station and am again, completely lost, so I follow people that were on the train and find the outside. I walk around, not having a single clue where I am, when I stumble across a park. I decide maybe I can get some internet and talk to people. So I did and through Verizon’s website I sent brock a text and told him to get online. I talked to him and Cj and then Carly just for a bit, when my laptop died. So I was like I will book a room around here and get on the net there. So I am in this cheapo room and they don’t even offer internet here! THEN I didn’t have the UK power adapter so I had to walk around looking for it. So then I went to Oxford street, which is a lot like Michigan Ave. in Chicago except WAY more stores and stuff. I saw the Gucci, Louis Vitton, Prada, and a bunch of other names all in this building together. I got subway, which was really expensive and sat on a bench and ate. Coke is different in the UK. It tastes…like Pepsi haha. So I came back to my room after buying a ttoothbrush, paste, and chap stick and played the psp and guitar. What a day of hell. Once I get my luggage and move into my flat everything will be alright. Things are so busy here and exciting. I went to Hyde Park, which is a famous London Park and people in London play outside way more than in America. It was such a nice day today. I don’t know what the forecast for the rest of the week is, but today was nice. Moved in to my flat the other day and had a bus tour today. Met kids from NYU and Dartmouth and FSU and stuff. Still don't have my luggage. Haven't been able to add pictures. I am at an internet cafe and my time is up in 2 minutes. I will elaborate and post pictures later. wooo
