Too Early

Written on 18.10.10

Well I have been traveling for about a month now. Man, a month is a long time to travel and I got just over another month to left.... I have been having the time of my life and everything is going the way I want it o. I went to that pizza party, I made friends.. I have a good little network in London right now of kids to play with during the days and nights. Yesterday I visited the White Chapel Galleryin White Chapel (go figure) it was beautiful... google it. There is a pretty amazing exhibit there right now that focuses on all the terror befallen on Beruit. We also visited Brick Lane which is a really hip street that has a market every Sunday... the vintage clothing selection is AMAZING... but also amazingly exspensive... ugh, what a tease. I am trying not to blow all of my travel funds on clothes... although I did buy a belt and a hat... Guilty. I am in the airport in Gatzwick right now waiting to check in for my flight. I got here SUPER early. I had no idea what to expect of this airport and I am super paranoid so.. go figure.. I didn't think there was a such thing of getting to the airport too early, but I guess there is.. I can't check in till 15:20.. it ia now 14:40.. uuugggghhhh. (UPDATE: ended up waiting when I didn't even have to.. you only have to check in if you are checking a bag.. oops)  Oh well. but yes, anywho, I am flying to Berlin. I have no phone right now because I already lost my charger like a genius... thatll teach me to lay my shit around everywhere. Man, Europe is full of beautiful people.. they are EVERYWHERE.. kind of makes you step up your game a little bit. Yesterday I played in a play ground with my new friends. ... again on the amazingly lush green grass.. there was a zip line which entertained us for about a 1/2 hour. People drink A LOT of beer in London. .. a lot. Booze is too exspensive. It's like 6 quid (roughly 11 bucks) for a cheap vodka soda.. if not more! Ridic. I've been living off Tesco salmon cakes and cocoa snaps cereal... also, roughly half my caloric intake for the day is beer based. It keeps ya full. Don't worry.. I actually feel quite healthy.. the snacks here are of a much higher quality than the snacks from back home... the ingredients list even for my shitty snaps cereal is like a quarter of what it would be in the US.. ugh, I hate how Americans are slowly posioning themselves with the shit we eat and all the hidden crap in food. HATE! I am going to miss the chocolate here sooo much.. I'll pack a bag of Cadbury sweets for everyone back home.. mmmmm and mini cheddars.. mmmm.. guh, I think I'm hormonal. (UPDATE: totally was hormonal.)

I gave someone directions the other day! ON THE STREET. IIIIIIII knew where I was and where they needed to go in London. I felt pretty damn good about that. I sure do need to either bag me a husband or figure out how to go to UNI here. I love this damn city. I hear great things about Berlin .. pretty excited. I hope I can find my way to Matts place. You can take the trains which would be a lot cheaper but I might just spend the extra 20 Euros (UPDATE: ended up costing 45 EUROS! GUH!) and call a cab... just to spare myself the stress and anxiety. Apparently the place has a glowing 5 outside of it.. that sounds awesome (ANOTHER UPDATE: all the street numbers glow but JUST the 5 I was looking for was burnt out.. thanks Matt.) 15 minutes till I can check in. I'm rambling.. this entry was boring sorry. Miss you guys xoxo
