Us being pretty.
Us being babies.
Us feeling so sick. We think we are dying.
Us with something in our eyes.
CREEPER.
Us straight cheesin'.
Us being Ugly. (My favorite part is Caitlin's face.)

LONDON: Days 7-11
Well I've been keeping busy! So much going on. Going to pubs/clubs, exploring different neighborhoods, etc. For the first time in a really long time, I truly feel like I have no real down time. Today was the first time I took a nap in about a week (and I had weird dreams about living in a hotel that was in a grocery store and both my mom and grandma were dying) and I don't even have time to paint my nails or pluck my eyebrows anymore! I'm just going to be a hairy un-polished mess by the time I get back to the states! OH NO!!!!!
SOME THINGS FROM THIS WEEK
Portobello Road:
Portobello Road is in Notting hill. It's a street lines with hundreds of adorable little shops but on the weekend it is a full on flea market. We were supposed to wake up early to go but ended up sleeping an extra 3 hours than we were supposed to. It was way too crowded at that time of day and it also started to rain only about 20 minutes after we got there. But they sold a whole bunch of delicious foods and cool trinkets. We're definitely going to try and go back sometime soon.
Brick Lane:
(First of all, on our way there we bumped into what we believe was the set of the new X-Men movie. My friend's Justin and Zack spent an entire day earlier this week trying to find the set and never really found it and we just found it by accident! So good.) Brick Lane was rumored in one of our guidebooks to have delicious Jewish "beigels". The guidebook made these bagels sound like the most amazing things ever but when we went and got them, they really tasted like normal bagels. But the nice thing was that a beigel with cream cheese and smoked salmon was only about £2 and most bagels with cream cheese and smoked salmon sold in NYC cost about $10. Brick Lane itself was lovely. Full of vintage shops and Indian restaurants. It reminded me a lot of Williamsburg, BK. We looked at a few vintage markets/shops (pretty expensive) and were harassed by some Indian restaurant employees. I will DEFINITELY be re-visiting Brick Lane sometime soon.
Speaker's Corner:
Woke up early on sunday to walk through Hyde Park to where we thought Speaker's Corner (a place where "people come to exercise their Democratic right to free speech." Basically a place for crazy people to scream about crazy things.) was located. Turns out, we don't know where the real Speaker's corner is. Instead we wandered to Marble Arch, an area with a large arch based off of the arch of Constantine. My guidebook said that the area we were sitting in had been a place where people were often executed up until the year 1739. CRAZY! It really is weird to be in a place that has a documented history that is so much older than the US.
Jedward:
My favorite TV here is definitely the reality kind. And my favorite show is called Jedward Let's Loose. It is actually the greatest show of all time. Jedward is/are a set of twins with pineapple heads who won the UK X Factor. As far as I can tell, they don't actually sing or dance or do anything. But they are so much fun to watch because they are like giant gay babies who aren't actually gay (yeah right! and they do everything together and talk like idiots and eat bowls of jelly beans for dinner every night. They even have a body guard who is more like a babysitter. The whole thing reminds me a lot of Very Mary Kate.
Mayor's Festival:
The Mayor's Festival is located on the Thames river. It's this amazing huge festival full of food stands, goods for sale, live music, parades, performances, and FIREWORKS! Crazy amounts of amazing fireworks over the river with double decker buses and German tourists occasionally obscuring your view.
Internship:
The most exciting part of my week involves my job. IT IS AMAZING!!! I LOVE MY INTERNSHIP!!!!!!!!! BEST EVER! Before I even got there I was expecting a fancy office with people in suits and a lot of modern Ikea furniture. But when I walked into the office I was greeted with a spacious loft full of light and a bunch of hipster-y dudes wearing flannels and skinny jeans. I am basically the personal programme assistant of this guy named Tom. And I spend my day (9:30am-6pm) watching short films and responding to emails. It is THE BEST. The company is called Future Shorts and is a short film distribution company as well as an organizer of short film festivals. The first day I watched compilation DVDs of 3 of their festivals so I could get a better idea of what level of content they were looking for. The second day I took notes and watched the short films that people sent in and had to reject all the ones which were not up to the company's standards. It's a long day's worth of work, but totally fun.
After my first day my boss asked me if I wanted to join him and the other co-workers for a pint (we were all warned that if asked to do this, you DO this because it is a social necessity). So I went out to the pub and had all my drinks paid for by my co-workers and I met the girl who I am replacing at the company and we had drinks in honor of her leaving the company. Everyone was SO NICE! And my boss is particularly awesome. Just really easy to talk to and super friendly. He looks/acts like Simon Amstel. He really liked my enthusiasm and attitude and only ever asked one other intern out for drinks before and that he had a good feeling about me and my work ethic. WOO HOO!
(Some of the short films/music videos I watched during work: Luv Deluxe, Heart Breaker, Midnight EP Trilogy, The Lost Tribes of New York etc.)

LONDON: Day 6
All I ate today was tea and pastries. Seriously unhealthy, but probably pretty thrifty? But I'm not even hungry after that meal and it was hours ago! We went to afternoon tea in a really cute business-y area of London. The place was called Bea's of Bloomsbury and they were AWESOME. They totally served us a billion cupcakes, raspberry marshmallows, scones with clotted cream and raspberry jam, brownies, blondies, and meringues for only £9. We (Caitlin and 2 other girls from the program) also each ordered little personal pots of tea (I got the vanilla black tea). SO FRICKIN' GOOD. Then we went to a house museum which was built by Sir John Soane (the first Tuesday of every month, admittance is free). He was this famous 19th century architect who was basically a hoarder of all things Italian and artsy. He has one huge Egyptian sarcophagus and the museum goes underground and is 3 houses wide and is lit only by candlelight to keep the authenticity of the place. Apparently this dude was a pretty well known architect and professor who had mad beef with his sons. So before he died he drafted a will that gave his property and all of his positions to the city of London. And according to one of the docents there, he began his collection during a time of great social poverty and allowed his students to tour his home museum just for inspiration! It was really cool and the architecture was just amazing.
After our big day out, Caitlin and I bought some wine to relax. It's especially a "I need to relax" kind of night because I have my first day of classes tomorrow and there is currently a tube strike. This tube strike caused quite a few tiring travel woes today. But don't worry, we sorted it all out. Apparently, by law, tube strikes can only last 24 hours so it should end by 9pm tonight.
Also, on Thursday it's the first day of my internship and I have to take 2 different tube lines to get there. I'm still getting used to the public transportation here. For the most part it's incredibly reliable and easy to follow, but because London isn't on a grid system, it CAN get pretty confusing.
CHEERS!

London: DAY 5
After a lovely night playing Hinkle Finny Duster in the basement, the girls and I woke up early (no easy feat after a sleepless night caused from too much strong English tea) to go to Primark for some shopping. I bought a sparkly black umbrella (which became useful today when it rained), a peacock feather hair barrette, seam-up-the-back black tights, and a gray satchel...all for under £15!!!
Then I went with Justin and Fornwald to Camden town to explore it in the day light. SO MANY WONDERFUL shops! And market places galore with ethnic foods for cheap prices and other fascinating odds and ends. We came back to South Kensington by bus, which took about 45 minutes, due to the tube strike. It is predicted the strike will last until wednesday. I really hope everything gets resolved by then because my internship starts on thursday and I really want it to be an easy commute.
Tonight we're going out with some of the girls from our program to a local pub called The Prince of Wales. Should be fun.

LONDON: Day's 2 & 3
Day 2:
During the day we had orientations for our academics and internships. Around 4pm though we went with a bunch of the guys to a pub called The Goat's Head and split a pitcher of Pimms. I actually became a bit "pissed" as they say. Not really drunk, but rathhherrrr tipsy. We also took a lot of naps. 2nd night there, first night out. IT WAS PRETTY GREAT! We went to SoHo which is the hip area of london? (More like tourist central. Picture Times Scquare with a bunch of British people drinking on the street) We walked around for a bit trying to find other people from Temple but we decided to just do our own thing and went into this pub called Waxy which was what I imagine every house in the lord of the rings is like. There was a tree growing in the middle of it and they only played fabulous 90s music which we sang very loudly to all night (Bon Jovi, Journey, BSB etc.)
We met and hung out with a few British/Irish people who were super nice! Glenn, Warren, Luke, Sam, Mary Anne etc. They reccomended we go to Fabric and Tiger Tiger (super expensive cover charge$$ though. Not into that.) And we spent most of the night discussing the differences between American and British culture. People were fascinated by how large our food portions are and about how American culture is very FOR binge drinking. It was a very interesting experience. Pubs close around 11pm-12am here so we hung out there until we were kicked out and then we wandered the streets looking for a club to go to, but everything was really expensive and touristy and the Irish/British friends we made were being a little creepy so we left.
Um, let me just say. That night, I HAD NEVER HAD TO PEE SO BADLY IN MY LIFE! I can honestly say I have never had to pee as much in my life as I did tonight. But nothing NOTHING nothing was open and I almost peed on the streets a few times but I would pull down my pants in some shadows and then I would see some security guard guy in the distance or a car coming around the corner and i would chicken out. so we took the bus home while I quietly cried in pain and then we finally got back and I peed and it was amazing.
DAY 3:
Today we woke up early to go on a walking tour of our neighborhood. It was really cute and our tour guide was pretty awesome. Totally rocked the color blue, blue dress/sweater/shoes etc. Pimpin' it up. I wasn't feeling well so after I ate my tuna sandwich with cucumbers and lemon vinaigrette (YUM), I took a 4 hour nap. This caused me to skip the bus tour but I definitely needed the nap. Afterwards I felt so much better.
Night 3 was pretty low key. We haven't done a whole bunch of bonding with the people from our program. Just with the people we already knew before we came here. So tonight the girls and I plus Fornwald and his socially retarded/serial killer from the future roommate Patrick went to Camden, which is the punky area of London. We bought hamburgers for dinner and then we walked around and went to this bar called Lock Tavern which was definitely hipster central and was pretty fun. Not AS FUN as last night because last night we were a little bit more drunk and we went to a more toursity pub where people were more talkative. We did strike up a conversation with this really nice lady named Ruthie who thought we were 25. She was a political photo-journalist and she travels all over the world and was very interesting.
We left early enough to catch the tube home but we got on the wrong one and were lost for a little while but now we're back! Tomorrow we're waking up at a resonable hour to go this thing called Speaker's Corner in Hyde park. It's where "british citizens exorcise their democratic rights." Basically people talking on soapboxes about politics and religion. Tessa says it's more along the lines of "a bunch of psychos ranting incoherently." We also plan on going to Topshop and Primark and other shopping locales. EXCITING!

10 things I have learned about London so far
10 things I have learned about London so far:
1. Brits don't hate Americans. They actually rather love them as long as they are friendly and outgoing.
2. Guns are illegal here, so I don't have to worry about being shot. Ever.
3. Rape is prevalent here, so I have to worry about being raped. All the time.
4. When going out, girls tend to dress up like Temple Freshman attending Frat parties i.e. 5 inch heels and bootylicious dresses. This means I usually look like a casual midget in bars.
5. People in London are REALLY tall. The girls are tall because of the aforementioned 5 inch heels and the guys are tall because they are actually half giant. They probably hang out with Hagrid a lot.
6. Electricity here pretty much sucks and fuses get blown all the frickin' time for apparently no reason.
7. House parties do not exist here.
8. Due to a recent law that is trying to crack down on binge drinking, bouncers must check the IDs of anyone entering the bar who may look 25 or under and the bartenders are supposed to check IDs too even if you are already in the bar. This results in having your ID checked about 3-4 times per night.
9. They sell liquor in cans here (gin & tonic, whiskey & coke etc.)
10. The tube is wiggety wack and confusing. Lines split into 2 and you have to go and change back and some other stuff. Pretty intimidating. But other than that, their public transportation system is beautiful, punctual, clean etc. and SEPTA really needs to learn to be more like the tube.

LONDON: DAY 1
So after arriving in Heathrow 1 1/2 hours later than originally anticipated by the airline and after going through customs, I get greeted at the baggage claim by the lovely Caitlin and Fornwald. They had even been so nice as to fetch my luggage for me before I had even arrived (I had described to them earlier just how hideous the shade of pukey olive green my suitcase was and, sure enough, they found it. So then we found our way to the tube and made our way to Gloucester Road. (When I went to pay for my ticket, I tried to use these pound notes my mom found in an old purse, but it turns out they were expired! The guy at the counter gave me such attitude about it too! Whatever man. In America, dollars are dollars and they be dollars 4evah! Just kidding.)
So we arrived at our stop (fun fact: in London, you have to keep your ticket with you during the whole trip because you need it to swipe in AND out of the stations) and were assisted with our luggage up the stairs. Then came the long an grueling walk to our check in area. My hands are still sore and calloused from that long haul with my 64lb. suitcase. After checking in and receiving our keys (Caitlin, Christine, and I are all sharing a room-1C!!! C FOR HARD C's!!) Caitlin and I unpacked and waited for Ms. Fisher to arrive. Unpacking seriously took about 15 minutes. I feel like I brought no clothes at all. After packing we browsed some of the other rooms on our floor (an all girls floor, with a few bathrooms, a kitchen, and a study lounge for sharing). The boys are in the basement and I swear Fornwald has a bloodstain on his carpet. CREEPY.
After we finished unpacking and Christine arrived, we decided to walk around and find some food to help keep us awake. None of us slept on the flight over (instead I watched the TERRIBLE movies Letters to Juliet and The Losers) and to avoid jetlag, we're trying not to nap (although Caitlin is currently snoring above me on the top bunk, so that might not have worked out as planned). For food we got Starbucks and Sainsbury sandwiches. I can already tell that grocery shopping is going to be really fun here. There are so many things I want to try and all of the packaging is WAY CUTER than it is in America. It's going to be tough not gaining 300 lbs. while overseas. We also bumped into Mike Rehrig (who is studying here this semester) and his bf Joe Weidman (who studied here this summer) on the street and we made tentative plans to hang out at a future date.
Now it looks like Chris Fish is napping too. Fornwald just came in the room to invite us to a pub but I guess we'll go later. Though in all honesty, I'm not in the mood to drink right now. Unless that drink happens to be coffee.
I wish I could show pictures of the room but my camera is out of battery and I still have to buy/borrow a UK adaptor. We basically have 1 bunk bed (I snagged the ridiculously low ceiling-ed bottom bunk) and 1 single bed, 3 wardrobes, 1 dresser, and a bulletin board. It works for us.
Upsides include:
1. we are all in 1 room
2. we have wifi!
Downsides include:
1. it's pretty cold in here
2. we don't have our own bathroom
