Ok well lets start with Paris. It was pretty much awesome. We stayed in Montmartre (if you have seen Moulin Rouge you know its where the Bohemian revolution took place, which was pretty flipping cool). I really liked that area, the little stores and everything. One day we were walking to the city center and there were these three guys just walking down the street playing their horns and it felt like we were in new orleans.
Of course all the other attractions were great, the eiffel tower was cool. We were the last ones in line that day to climb the stairs up, we climbed those horrible steps, it sucked, but was worth it, then we took the elevator to the third floor. The museums were cool and really big, there were so many things to see in them you get overwhelmed. We walked around a lot! If you see the map we were all the way up Paris and it took us like 2 hours to get anywhere. We came back and couldnt walk for three days. It was worth it and was really cool, except everywhere was dirty in the centre.
The excursion was really cool. Dublin was boring and we stayed there for three nights, one of the days we went to Cork and saw the Blarney castle, which was really pretty around with the grass and trees.
I loved Scotland, Edinburgh was really cool. We stayed in a cool hostel, where we met up with the other girls and I just really liked how the city was layed out and stuff. The train up to Inverness was really long but the views were amazing, especially at this one part where we crossed snow covered mountains, it was just so pretty. Manchester was cool, our hostel was pretty much awesome, I think the best from the trip and we went out to eat Indian food that night and it was the best food EVER!!! it was a cheap restaurant but the service was awesome, they even put rose petals on the table, lol. And of course the Manchester United stadium was sooo cool.
The whole trip we took four planes, five trains and two buses, not counting the local buses and transportations. We traveled soo much in a weeks time, but I liked it since I do like the traveling part.
Well that was excursion week. more to come.

The White Cliffs of Dover
(It wont let me turn it, so just turn your head to the left and youll be fine)
Me and Teresa went to Dover this past weekend, it was pretty awesome. We took the bus there and then walked to the B&B we stayed at. We first got there and the lady was so nice and told us where to go and stuff.
First we climbed the white cliffs and it took us forever, we pretty much walked for miles, but it was sooo pretty. Too bad the ferry port is right there, it ruins the scenery. You can see France from there but it was too foggy, its only 22 miles from the cliffs.

REALLY?!?!?!?!?
Ive been trying to feel better for this game, Ive stayed in all day taken some medicine, drank orange juice and just rested. First of all the weather sucks for a game, its raining and Im pretty sure it will be raining hard when we go, and it will not be fun to be out there when my throat hurts and my nose is runny. But I would go through all of it just to see Kaka play.....BUT....of course he's not gonna be there, of course not, it would happen. He hurt his foot playing last saturday and will not play for 15 days, 15 DAYS!!!! really?
Well of course being the girl I am I cry for 15 minutes straight after reading this. I mean when else will I be able to go to a Brasil game where I get front row tickets? NEVER!
Let me just go cry some more.....

Death Hiccups
As I am writing this I have had the hiccups for 5 min now and they are annoying the freak out of me. I guess I have the flu or cold or whatever it is. My throat really hurts and my head does too, which completely sucks cause the game is on tuesday and i nedd to be at my best to root for my team! yeah
We went to the tower of london today and it was pretty cool. The guide was hilarious which made it even better. We saw where two queens were executed and it was really really cold.
Classes are ok. Our British Seminar class goes on forever, but most of it is going around town and seeing stuff. Anglo American Perspectives is hilarious, the teacher has this heavy accent and talks forever and ever, its soo funny. Our Art painting class was oring, even though I like the painting and stuff we had to stand there for two hours, while my whole body was in pain and I barely made it out of there, I thought I was going to die from the pain. The lady is very monotone but shes nice, we havent had politics yet and thats the one im not really excited for.
Everything is pretty cool, everyone is still getting along, and its cool. I have not had fish & chips yet, but I am still holding out until i can find chicken & chips.
Look at that, my hiccups are gone....

Its actually Snowing!
It really is and its pretty awesome. This morning we went out in the backyard and played with it. We even had a snowball fight with our neighbors next door. It looks so pretty and pictures will be up soon. Class was cancelled today, so were basically having a vacation right now, and its pretty awesome.
We had indian food on saturday and it was soo good, it reminded me of the food I used to have when I lived here. It was amazing! Chicken Mossala with Nan bread, mmmm so good.
Well thats pretty much it for now. Were all gonna go to the British Museum soon, and look at things for our class, but that about it. Just seeing all the sites, walking around, having snowball fights and having fun.
