Hello hello!! I apologize for the lack of posts over the past couple of months. I have been focused on finals, spending time with my family, my law class, and, of course, prepping for London!!
For those who don’t know, I am going to be studying abroad in London for 13 magical weeks, something I have daydreamed about from the moment I entered college.
Between the time I found out I got into the program and now, with two days before I fly out, I still haven’t been able to completely wrap my head around it. This is a huge step for me personally because this will be the longest time and the furthest I will be from home. Being an only child, I have always had a very close relationship with my parents and the idea of being in a completely different country from them has caused me to have some nerves. However, my parents have been supportive through this time and their faith in me will give me the strength to really grow during my time there.
I have made a list of a few things that I really want to do such as
Try every type of food possible (except black pudding…)
Travel (and FINALLY visit a patisserie in Paris cause I didn’t last time I was there and I still have regrets)
Attend a football match
Attend a concert… maybe?
Get a hat like Joey’s in Friends when they went to London
Casually run into Harry Styles (Or anyone in 1D honestly lol) and become best pals
Obviously there are more things I want to do, but honestly, I can’t think of anything at the moment so I’ll leave it at that for now.
Farewell for now, my beautiful SoCal. I will miss In-N-Out, acai bowls, and, most of all, the beach. See you all across the pond.
