Seven days in London over the summer was enough to convince me. Despite my first hostel's iron-barred windows that overlooked a cemetery and my fear of looking the wrong way when crossing the street, I decided I had to spend more time in England. My friend, Apryll, and I will both be studying for a semester at Richmond American International University, located in London's posh Kensington district. We'll be living right down the street from Harrods, the famous up-scale department store, and Princess Di's old palace.
Apryll and I are both excited about living with the Brits and have already planned all sorts of adverntures around the island and mainland Europe. Somewhere in all that, I'm sure I'll make it to class. Yes, Mom and Dad, I promise I'll go to class. We fly out on Monday to start orientation. School begins on January 22. So wish us luck, check up on our adventures and let us know what's happening stateside.

Ahh, sweet memories. 'Twas exactly one year ago I was dodging traffic as I scurried across Abbey Road.
Glad you're having fun. I alway wish I had studied abroad.
Speaking of studying, did I tell you I'm starting grad school in KC this fall?
If you have the time (and money), I highly reccommend seeing "Phantom of the Opera at Her Majesty's Theater" (not far from Picadilly Circus) and you simply must see "We Will Rock You" at the Dominion Theater.
