What Year Is It? An Update

So I'll have been in London for two weeks tomorrow and my brain doesn't know what year it is. Two weeks alternately feels like two years and two days. And morning doesn't yet feel like morning, though night is definitely night because, shit, it's dark. On top of that, even though it's October, classes just started Monday and all the trees are still green. WHAT YEAR IS IT.

But at least I'm beginning to settle in at long last. The first week I was a walking ball of anxiety and tears and now London and I are getting on pretty well. Who knows where we'll end up. London has got excellent biscuits though (oh my GOD I'm bringing as many Hobnob packs back with me as can fit in my suitcase - and then I will make you eat some), so it's made the adjustment easier hahaha. Enough about me and my strange process of settling in.

HOW ARE YOU LOVELY PEOPLE DOING? Even though I'm really loving this city and my classes are great and my flatmates are good people, I miss you all terribly. Since everyone can speak English and England looks very similar to the bit of US we're from at certain moments, so sometimes in the early morning it's easy to forget where I am. It takes me a minute to remember I can't just drive two hours to see Amy or four hours to see Sarah and Megan, or take a jaunty walk down the street to visit Trisha, etc.

So, when you get a chance, let me know what you're all up to! Even the everyday stuff! Especially the everyday stuff! Or just music! While the UK has got wonderful, chocolate covered cookies at every turn, they don't have Pandora. I'm trying to make friends with Spotify. We'll see how it goes. I did find this, though.
