Days after Day 109

Been back in New York City for the past two weeks. I have to say... I miss London. Even though I was so homesick while I was there. But all I can say is that I am glad to have gone to study abroad for a whole semester, and London has made me see things I wouldn't have done if I had stayed in NYC. Overall, I'd have to say that studying abroad in London was a good experience and I'm glad to have done it. No regrets. S2

We have 3 more weeks to go. 19 Days, to be exact. Counting down the days 'til I get back. I know that once I'm in New York again, I'll be regretting the fact that I was so looking forward to come back. I know that I'll want to be back here in London when I'm there. Wonder why life works this way... :(
So next week I'll be heading to Paris for my last trip of the semester here in London and then I'm going to have to buckle down and start studying for finals. Actually, I should be working now since my finals kind of start this week until til the last week, which sucks. I hate papers.
And I hate doing research for them as well. Like for Recycling Architecture. I hate that class. And I am not looking forward to writing that research paper/final project.
And right now I should be working on my cognition paper but I am here, updating my blog. I woke up at 5pm and I still haven't gotten any work done. What a fail.

It's after fall break! I have to say, fall break was pretty fun. I enjoyed it. I have to say that Greece was probably the best place out of all the places I went to during fall break, because it was so nice and warm and beautiful! I love the islands. Would definitely go back and island hop.
Not missing home as much anymore, but I wouldn't mind going back as well... doesn't really matter much to me. I just don't want to do all the work I have to do before I get to go back to NYC though... not looking forward to that.

I also still have to get a starbucks mug and sweatshirts for my cousins. MUST REMEMBER TO DO SO BEFORE I LEAVE!

Can't really believe that there is only a month left... so much work to do and so little time. I'm not even sure if I should be going out and still going to other countries because of all the shit work I have to do. :[
My hair is covered in natural yogurt right now and I'm waiting to go wash it out. Let's see if the youtube video I watched about this is actually true... does it actually make your hair more hydrated? Cause I really need some hydration to my dried out, damaged, dyed hair. :(

Thinking that maybe when I go back, I'll dye it back to black... not sure. And maybe I should get a haircut too, even though I want to grow out my hair so that it's long. Hmms, what to do, what to do...?

Hehe, I am so procrastinating on my work. It's terrible!

Day 43

Wow it's been 43 days. I have to say that I'm not as homesick as I was before.
Went to Edinburgh and the highlands in Scotland. We stayed in a hostel for 2 days. I almost died. My trip there kind of made me not want to go anywhere else in Europe, but it's been 2 weeks, and I feel like I wouldn't mind going somewhere again. Heh, so ironic, huh?

Too lazy to write anymore. Maybe next time.

Day 25

Went to the Buckingham Palace yesterday. Wow, made me wish I was a princess, ahah.
Afterwards, we went shopping but all I managed to get was a hat. I think I stopped more often to eat than to shop -___-. It's ok though, because the food was pretty good. We ate at Noodle oodle and I got roast pork with hand-pulled noodles. It was really good, considering that I haven't really eaten much Chinese food for the past 25 days I've been here.

My mom might come up to visit me and travel Europe with me during Fall Break. :) I'm not sure if I've already said this already but maybe it'll curb my homesickness.

I miss New York City, but it doesn't hurt as much as it did before. Which I'm glad for. All I'm dreading is completing all my schoolwork on time and all the troubles of travelling. >< Gahh
