- had my hair done today!shampoo and straighting, of course. the lady was really nice and friendly. getting my hair done is turning into one of my go-to-things when I am upset, sad, or a little down. it's like they're scrubbing all my troubles away. for a few minutes away. and i do love my hair straight. it is when love it the most. I do love the curls when they're wet, it is when they are dry that they go frizzy!I love that the salons here offer ur tea or coffee. granted I dont drink either of those, but it is still so cool that they ask. so proper and nice! :)
- I hung out with my friend Wes from ACU and his friend Richard today! they're doing this backpacking trip around Europe and they were in London so I got to see them! :) it was SO nice to be with a friend of mine from ACU. it reminded me of my other life, the life I left backthere and all the people. they do mean a lot to me, and while I havent forgotten that at all, it has kinda...dimmed since I've been here so long and have fallen in love with it you know? it was nice to be with Wes as well...he always makes me laugh and he's funny and very...charismatic I think? he's a good friend and I am so glad the crush on him thing didnt ruin that at all. in general, it was good for me. I may be leaving something behind and that is really hard and tough and heartbreaking and painful and sad for me, but I am going going back to something...all my friends, ACU, classes, southern hills...a whole life is waiting for me. a life that I built out of nothing when I moved to Texas for college not knowing anyone. I love that life; it'll be nice to go back to it.
- had a nice dinner of sausage and mash at a pub tonight. it was with Wes and his friend Richard btw. it was a nice pub. it was funny because some of the dishes were buy 1 got 1 free, and so they did that, but they forgot they could have gotten another one with mine, and Wes kept explaing that over and over...lol. he also kept telling me to hurry up(slow slow eater)because he wanted to get a soft serve cone from McDonalds. I told him to watch it(he's not exactly going to the gym you know and it would be a shame to lose that figure lol). silly guy huh? lol...when he left me at the tube stop I told him to watch the ice cream in Italy(where they are headed next); it has 4 times the amount of sugar as the ice cream in the USAbut my dinner was nice! it was a nice pub. I LOVE pubs!!they are beyond awesome. i would say we should have them in america, but it is an english/british thing and they should stay here. i am gonna miss them though!coffee shops are just not the same! lol...
- I bought an Oyster Card for this week, and will top up at the end of this week. I am way excited because I get zones 1 and 2 on the tube and any bus, so it is pretty sweet and makes getting into the tube so quick and easy! plus, it kinda makes me look and feel like a someone who lives in London(Londoner?)! lol..I know, I am dork. but I have ambraced it and accept it. lol...
- I laughed a lot today. I LOVE laughing, even though I dont like my laugh or smile. go figure. oh well. I still LOVE laughing!!
