Follow me on my journey to London as I study abroad this fall. In "A Long December" Counting Crows describes "the feeling that it's all a lot of oysters, but no pearls." I've had enough oysters and it's now my goal to get more pearls.

Update

Nothing new has really happened, so I guess there's no update. I keep emailing the adviser at Queen Mary, I'm sure he's really annoyed with me. He forwarded my emails to Admissions and told me that I have plenty of time. Comforting. Not.

EK is leaving for Switzerland in a week and all of my friends are moving into their apartments at school this weekend. I'll still be here for another month, struggling to figure out my Visa, cleaning buggy bathrooms, and yelling at snobby little kids. A month from now I'll be in London, I'll have arrived at Heathrow almost 12 hours ago. I wonder what the jet lag will be like. I wonder how I'll like my room. I wonder how I'll get my three large suitcases in and out of the airports by myself.

My parents are really mad at me about this Visa thing so I've been trying to occupy myself with other things. I've been following my school on Victoria's Secret religiously (http://www.vspink.com/pink_collegiate/school_spirit.jsp) so that they'll endorse my school and make some apparel. I've also been watching Greek and Bachelor Pad and skyping with tons of people. Anyway hopefully this gets figured out tomorrow!
