Hi Everybody! So this will be my last post from London. I'm leaving tomorrow at 11:30 to go to the airport. I will be back in Boston around 5! I had my last theatre class today and the presentation went pretty well. I really liked that class so it was a bit sad to see it end. Then I walked with Jenn and Caitlin to Harrods, a very fitting end to my ( Read more... )

Hi Everybody! Today was my last free day in London, tomorrow I have my last class and presentations, then Thursday I fly home! I spent the whole morning finishing my paper (after staying up until 2 and not quite finishing it). Then since we don't have a printer I had to walk to Harrington Gardens, our classroom building, to print and edit it. It is ( Read more... )

Hi Everybody! I almost forgot to post today amist all my paper writing! Not that I actually wrote my paper for most of the day. I went to the Natural History Museum with Jenn and Amy because it is on my street and I have never gone! It was neat, especially the gem part ;) After that Caitlin, Amy, Jenn, Christina, Robyn, and I went back to the ( Read more... )

Hi Everybody! So the goal today was to get a lot of my paper written. That did not happen. I did start working on my photo presentation that I also have due on Wednesday, then realized that I didn't have enough of the photos that I wanted, so I had to go take more of them. It was such a pretty day out and one of the great things about living in a ( Read more... )

Hi Everybody! Today was my last Saturday in London, and it was a really great day. Amy and I went to Portobello Road in Notting Hill this morning for the outdoor markets. I was really good and only bought one thing but it was really fun to browse. Notting Hill is such a pretty area and I never go there even though it is not very far away. After ( Read more... )

Hi Everybody! I had a very nice day off today. I met Becca Luster who went to Exeter with me and who is at LSE for the the year, for lunch. We went to a pub and shared steak and ale pie which is a British specialty and I had never had before but I really liked it! It was really nice to see her again since I hadn't seen her since graduation and she ( Read more... )

Hi Everybody! So today was my last day of interning. It was actually sadder than I thought it would be. Two of my bosses took me out to lunch and they were very sweet and one of them almost started crying when I left. I was a bit sad to go but not really because I will enjoy the free time! After work I had class. We saw this play called Elling ( Read more... )

Hi Everybody! So today was my second to last day of work - I am so excited for the internship to be over! I have mixed feelings about the program being over but I am definitely happy that the internship will be over because it means practically a whole week of free time (even though I do have to write a paper and do a presentation). I actually had ( Read more... )

Hi Everybody! So it was a pretty normal day at work with the exception that I had to go do research at the British Library. It was a very overwhelming experience! I had to register with two forms of ID, get a photo ID taken, leave my bag in the coatroom and put everything I needed in a plastic bag and then present the ID anywhere that I went. So ( Read more... )

Hi Everybody! So I have lots to update on. First of all, last weekend was amazing. I went horseback riding in Wales and it was so much fun. We had a great group of girls (and one guy). I didn’t know anyone that well before but we all got along really well and just had such a good time. The riding was fun, despite the fact that we didn’t get to do ( Read more... )
