This is simply a list because I am at my internship and I want to go back to the flat as soon as possible, so it's going to be kinda short...although, knowing me, it will end up being a bajillion miles long.
Things I've Learned in London So Far:
- Being "knocked up" means being visited, as in "I'm going to knock up my relatives later"
- Riding the tube is nice...when the Circle Line works
- I don't like sports as much as I thought I do
- My internship expects me to like sports a lot more than I do
- More people smoke in London than the U.S. (this is not fact, just going by what I see, people)
- I'm pretty darn good at adjusting to new places
- I'm a bigger sucker for romance than I had previous thought. Darn it.
- London is big.
- London loves KFC.
- London hates pedestrians.
- You bag your own groceries in supermarkets.
- Everything is more expensive.
- Carry your wallet in your front pocket all the time.
- I love to discuss theology with ANYONE.
- Loving someone doesn't mean that you're obsessed with them.
- I like living in a country where they speak English.
- I like the smell of baklavah.
- I like the smell of Axe.
- They have more ads geared towards men product, like MAN kleenex and MAN shampoo
- I love my internship.
- I just met the Vice President of ESPN International. WOW.
- Give a man a grocery list and he will buy food. Give a man groceries and he will eat way too much food in one sitting.
- Ithaca needs to move to Europe.
- The subways are cleaner in Europe, but the air is full of crap.
- I'm getting good at blending into the crowd as a Brit, not a friggin American.
- Politics aren't my calling.
- Luke Elmers and I are amazing at life.
- Wonder Woman's single power is seduction. The invisible jet can be pooped on by birds and thus be made visible.
- My mom sent me a card. Therefore, my mom loves me.
- Booking cheap flights around Europe is harder than you think.
- I love clementines.
- I love the internet.
- I love lamp.
- I miss driving.
- I love to read.
- I want to change the world.
- Going to see a play called "Helter Skelter" MUST be followed by a viewing of Finding Nemo.
That's it for now, I think. Yeah, that's it. I'm going to Bath and Stonehenge over the weekend and will be updating you all with something worthwhile and interesting upon our glorious return. Until then, smile! You look better when you do.
Except if you need to put your dentures in. Like you. Put them in. Now. I'm serious. Okay. Thank you.

Yeebus your blog entries are long! Makes me feel like I should be stepping it up a notch.
So I hear that drunk English-people are by far the most obnoxious. Is this true? I learned this from my gajillion German friends here so it's probably a biased source. I did get drooled on (literally) by an English guy who grabbed my head in a club so I'm inclined to agree. Maybe let me know? :-)
Haha anyways, good to hear you're doing fine and with internet now! Shoot me an email if you have the time. Peace!
