Flying By

You know how they say, it'll be all over in the blink of an eye?

Yeah...I'm feeling that so from today on I am refusing to blink.....just kidding. But seriously, where is the time going? I have only 33 days left in this beautiful city that has stolen my heart and sworn not to give it back. I have seriously started considering all the ways I can stay here. I love Davis so much and I love the people there, and I will be happy to be back, but it feels like I am on the soccer field right now, playing an amazing game, and returning to Davis would be like coming to sit on the bench. I will be anxiously awaiting my chance to get back on the field for 20 weeks. Then again, I know I will make the most of it, because I am sure once I am out of college I will be freaking out as to what to do next.
However, I have already started that freak out since I have realized, like I said, I only have 20 weeks of school left.

Anyways,
This week, I don't think I have ever written so much in my life. I am DETERMINED to get these papers done so I can relax. I have also booked a lot of things for the next few weeks, so I will have little time to write, meaning these papers need to be finished ASAP. When I am done, I will have written over 11,000 words. Ew.

But on to the more fun stuff.
Wednesday I went on a tour of the Chelsea FC stadium and it was pretty legit. I just love how these players are basically gods to the fans and how much English people appreciate soccer. AMERICANS! TAKE NOTE!

Thursday was such an amazing day, even though I didn't go anywhere. I skipped the first part of my class today. In my defense, we were simply watching a video I have seen so many times and I skipped to write my papers, so that makes it okay, right? I then went to the second part of my class and after got lunch with a friend. We just sat at a bench in Trafalgar Square people watching and talking about life. It was a total pinch me moment. Am I really living in London, just chillin on my lunch break in Trafalgar Square with the National Gallery on my right and Big Ben in the distance to my left? Yup.

After, I returned to Oxford Street and met up with another friend and we did a little retail therapy ;) which is always fun in my book.

The rest of the afternoon was filled with, you guessed it, more paper writing. But I am almost done!! Then I can really relax and do some more fun activities in London.

I would love to go see another West End production but I have no idea which one. Suggestions?
I am also going to a Chelsea FC game in December!! And ice skating in Hyde Park in two weeks. Gosh its a tough life ;)

It is also crazy to think I am here one more month and yet I still have 3 counties to visit. Time will fly and soon I'll be boarding a plane back to 'murica....
till then!
