Well, here I sit on the train, fresh on the Western side of
the chunnel headed back to the amazing city of London from the city of Lights.
I must say, I have been a little homesick…. For London. But before that, quite
a lot has happened recently.
Thursday night we had a boat party cruise on the Thames.
Dinner wasn’t served on the cruise (baddddd idea). My friends and I had planned
to go to this place called Spaghetti House and eat there before, but we, being
ladies, took too long to get ready. So we stopped at Pret a Manage, which was
the third day in a row I’d had the same sandwich from there. We ate on the tube
on the way to the party, and got a little lost once we got off. I think we
needed to go another stop or two or take a different exit. But we made it, and
were a bit scared the boat had left, since we were supposed to be there at
7:15, and it was nearing (if not past) 7:30. But! Luckily, we found everyone.
We docked right behind the Eye so I got some cool pics of that and right near
Big Ben and Parliament. Got some great pics. They had a cash bar on the boat
and I got a Pimms. They didn’t put strawberries in it which made me sad because
it definitely didn’t taste as good as when there are strawberries! So the party
was cool, music played and you could tell it was a boat full of Americans… some
of the dancing was…… trashy. And
some people got waaaaaay drunk. Classy, right?
Alcohol + college kids – food = a bad idea.

After the party my friends and I went back to our dorm, with
a stop to get some food, and I had a little homework to do and finally hit the
bed at like midnight, ish. I swear, I have hardly five minutes to sit down, let
alone to myself here! (as you can tell since it’s hard to update my blog
often!) We’re so on the go and it’s great! But when we sit down we start
bobbing for apples real quick.
