sunlight is the best medicine

Yesterday, I spoke too soon….

I woke up this morning, got ready, had my oatmeal and headed off to class on my own with N Sync’s Christmas CD playing in my ears. I was at class about 20 minutes early, so I caught up with some emails and then everyone finally arrived to class. This morning it was pretty gloomy outside to start, and we had to spend all of theatre class discussing that horrible show we saw last night, so it was not a very uplifting morning. But as each hour passed the clouds began to roll away. By lunchtime, the sun peaked out from behind the clouds and, as if the heavens parted, we finally saw some sunlight in London!

 

The only problem is, we were stuck in our history class! But it was still so nice to be able to look out the window and see the sun and blue skies. Throughout history class I caught up with facebook and emailed Lynnie – who claims my blog entries are much too long for her to handle – so this one is for you Lynnie – pretty short and sweet.

 

After history class, we hung around and used the free Internet while Laura met with the internship coordinators to settle all the logistics of the incident. Everything is fine, I think she is slowly starting to feel closure on everything and seeing as the rest of us only have 3 internship days left all together, I am pretty sure she will enjoy the few days off to relax and enjoy London. Once she was done with her meeting we went grocery shopping to pick up a bunch of goodies for our Christmas Weekend – this weekend we are doing a bunch of Christmas activities including a movie marathon, cookie baking, decorating and going to the opening day of Hyde Park’s Winter Wonderland festival. And on Sunday we are going to go to Cambridge, so that will be a fun day trip right here in England.

 

Tonight I am just hanging out. Most of my papers are done except for history, which I will start working on later this week. It is nice to have a night to do nothing but silly things like paint my nails and youtube Zac Efron videos, and even listen to some more Christmas music!

 

Birthdays are coming! YAY! Lynnie’s is on Saturday and mine is two weeks after that! Whoop whoop! I can finally say I am 20 without, well…. lying. That will be very fun, and it will mean one year until I am legal! It will be so weird to go back to London and not be able to order a casual glass of wine with dinner… total bummer! But good things come to those who wait…

 

So I am better now – Laura said that after last night’s blog you all must think we are slashing our wrists or something, but no no no, we are better now, we just needed a new day and a bit of sunlight – and of course, some Christmas cheer! Still, I miss you all so much and I cannot wait to see you soon….very soon!

 

Love and hugs,

Jenny
