I have been slacking on updates I know & I am sorry but I am here now so let me update you...
In about an hour I will be leaving for the airport to head to Prague w/ Jen! Never in my life did I think I would go to the Czech Republic but here I am finishing packing for my trip. I will be gone till Monday evening. We will be staying w/ Jenn's friend Val who is studying abroad there so that is awesome that we don't have to pay for a hostel. I am most excited for the Jewish Quarter in Prague and other sights such as the Charles Bridge & the Astronomical Clock.
Let me update you on other things going on over here. I joined the gym last week and have been going about everyday. I have been getting some pretty good workouts in and absolutely love it. I spend most of my time taking LesMills, Zumba, & Spinning classes. They are a blast and kicking my @$$ at the same time!
Last weekend my friend who is studying abroad in France,Katie, came to London and I met up with her and some other girls in London. We spent the day in Camden and I absolutely loved it it was a very indie town with many cute shops and street vendors.
Those are just some photos of the things you will find in Camden. After Camden we visited Abbey Rd and recreated the famous Beatles scene. All the undergrounds were down so we did a lot of walking & using the bus system. Katie and the other girls were staying with one of their Aunt & Uncle so we went there for dinner and she cooked us Ham, cabbage, mashed potatoes, and steamed carrots. Then for dessert we had strawberry cheesecake and a chocolate pudding pie. Followed by tea & biscuits. It was soooo delicious and felt so good to finally have a homecooked meal.
So that has been my life recently. After Prague there is hopefully one more trip planned and a couple more day trips around England including Brighton which is a quaint beach town. I can't believe I only have a month and a half left here; it is going to be a very busy time and I can't wait! But also I have two huge papers due May 24th, uggh! I will definitely have to prioritize and make sure my work gets done and still fit in time to travel. Wish I could stay and write more but i need to go finish my last minute packing & then head off to meet Jen and head on our way to the airport! I will update as soon as I get back on my trip.
