The flight was TRAGIC, it was terrible. The reasons why it sucked was cause of the seats... even with the aisle seat it was so TIGHT and not for HUMAN BEINGS. However, it was a quick flight being that we got to Heathrow in about 5hrs and 30mins.
After the flight we went to the apartment from a bus that took us from the airport to the front door. While on that 1hr bus ride, i saw so many things that was just so british yet i didnt feel alienated because this was all familiar in Hong Kong. The double decker buses, the driving on the other side of the road, the currency, the stores and pretty much most modern technology. The one thing that obviously threw me off was the british locals speaking english. The accent is not new to me because me and wilma practice often but it's just so awesome to finally be in Europe. FINALLY.
So, at the apartment I met my fellow roommates, two guys, and they're pretty awesome. Neither of them are from syracuse so it was only the two girls from our flat and me from SU. I think instantly we got comfortable with each other and was very social which was good. The 5 of us spent most of the time together. We spent the first night at a pub but for dinner we all finished 3 bottles of wine/champagne and had a can of beer. At the pub I had two pints and basically i was kinda drunk. So i passed out on the bed at midnight London time and woke up at 6am... was able to talk to Andres and stuff which made me day alot better.
DAY 2!!!!!
Today was a very simple day, just went to get other necessities such as the phone. Got to phone home which was good. We then became friends with people the floor below us and had dinner together then went to the pub together. Two different pubs, a different one every night and I swear my liver hates me. After the pub we all just came back and chilled and now here I am writing a blog entry!!!
I miss nyc, family, friends and my hot ass boyfriend. =] However, I am enjoying my time at London.
CHEERS
