So we had our goodbye banquet (if finger foods and cheesy music are a banquet) tonight. It was weird going because it made me feel all sappy and sad. I had to give myself a reality check that it's really NOT that sad, I really WONT miss most of these people, in fact, most of the time here I haven't even liked these people at all!

I only have ONE WEEK left here before I start my European tour with the Contiki company on Sunday. :( I'm going to miss the UK, going so many cool places all of the time, communal dinners with my hallway, my amazing friends, laughing at the idiots, and so much more.

Last night I went out, even though I am still kind of sick. We all hung out together and then caught the bus into Brighton with a bunch of other UC students. There was much fuss over where to go (the woes of going out with big groups), so we split up and three of us went to this bar called Bamboogey (which is right next to a club called Creation ( Read more... )

So last weekend I went to York. It was a fun trip, even if there were some ditzy UC people on the bus, but it was 6 hours each way! And you know what happens when you ride with people for that long in a contained space ( Read more... )
