Home sweet home

Lately I have been thinking about how I am enjoying my time here. I really feel like London is my home right now. I am very familiar with my surroundings, I'm starting to get to know more people around here/confident to be able to strike up a conversation with anyone around me, and I love it here! I really do. Maybe I can get mum and dad and rachael to move here! (in my dreams!!!)

I think this will also help me prepare for what type of job lies in my future. With fashion I think it would be likely to move to a bigger city and now I think I would be able to handle this kind of lifestyle.

One thing I don't like is that I have been sick twice so far and I rarely get sick at home. Its just throat/cold/being stuffed up sickness but its annoying!

Two more days until Greece! There are 11 of us going. It will be an adventure to say the least! Our flight leaves at 6:50 so were planning on leaving the flat at 3:30 in the morning! The flight is 6 hours on easyjet... people say an easyjet ride for that long will be hard because the plane has less room than one were used to. I personally fit well while going to Paris and fell asleep comfortably. But then again I'm smaller than others here.

Robin, Lauren M., and I saw confessions of a shopaholic the other day. It wasn't as good as I expected. There were some very funny parts though. In all honesty, I would suggest waiting for it to come out on DVD, don't waste your money.

This week is FASHION WEEK here in London, Nikki and I are going to go see whats going on around those parts of town. Hopefully my dreams will come true and I will see **MARY-KATE OLSEN** ahhhh.... heaven.
Then the week we get back from Greece Nikki and I are going to Fashion Weekend which is a smaller fashion week put on by Elle. We think its just local designers. But it will be a fun experience. We get to attend the event for 4 hours, go to one catwalk, and get a goody bag! woo hooo!
Ok, well I might be updating when I come back from Greece next. Until then, I hope you all are doing well!

allison!
Thats so crazy that the kid from your school made top 50! Does he ever sing at school talent shows or anything? I remember people from my school tried out for American Idol but didn't get anywhere. They aren't bad singers though in my opinion.
Yes, the flat is small but now that we have been here for awhile were getting along fine.
I would love to live in London!
I think I'm going to take a trip to visit you guys in Michigan when I get back too!
Love you, Kathy
