The time is almost here. A few days left before i take off for a semester in London. In all honesty i couldn’t be more excited. My class schedule is perfect. Since i have two classes on Tuesday and two classes on Thursday, my weekends are completely free to explore the city and potentially do some travelling to. My flat in Shepherd’s Bush is next to a grocery store which means i won’t starve, and I’m rooming with one of my best friends. One of my family friends has also told me about the area my flat is in which she described as having great bars with great music. I’m a littler nervous about the size of the flat and the living conditions but I’m sure I can make it work. However the good always comes with some bad. Ticketing confusions, packing, and worrying parents have been adding some unneeded stress to my life as i prepare to depart. Everything seems to be working out fine (thank god) but it’s still enough to slightly damper my pre-departure excitement. I guess these woes are necessary evils when preparing for a semester long journey to a different continent. All in all, I’m beyond excited for the experiences that lay ahead of me that are slowly approaching.
