Had yogurt here for the first time today and it was MARVELOUS. I got the 4 for 59p kind (super duper cheap) and they were absolutely delicious. Also tried Marmite last night and it's absolutely DISGUSTING. It tastes like rotten onions and garlic. Apparently you either love it or hate it. I obviously hate it.
In a fit of desperation, I've made a list of music I want to bring back with me to the US. Much more my style here, I guess. Most of the music is dance influenced or more indie rock than just pop. I really miss music and singing but luckily, as soon as someone realizes I can actually sing, they make me. Keeps me on my toes!
Speaking of being creative. I went to a hip hop dance class tonight. I don't think it's necessary for me to say that I was horrible, haha. I kept up but I just could not memorize the routine! It's been so long since I've done something like that; it felt good but it'll take some practice to get back into it. I'm going to a jazz dance class on Wednesday to try it out but I probably won't keep doing it since you have to get a membership. I'll stick to the gym, haha!
So I had my first day of class today as well. I had 3 out of 4 of them and I got to speak with all of my professors. They were very accommodating and engaging. I'm very interested in the topics being presented and I think I'm going to gain some unique perspectives during these next two months. I ended up talking to my Media Industry Management professor for an hour about generation identity and cultural difference in UK and US youth. Maybe I'll blog later about that but I'm really excited to see what the people I've met here are like in 10 years.
When I actually have a full Monday of classes, I may die because they are all very hands on and I only have an hour break but it'll be worth it. I may decide to eat out on those days just so I don't walk back to my hall and it'll give me something to look forward to since food is obviously a motivator for me, haha.
Booked my flight home for much cheaper than previous searches were proving, thank God. Just working on Ireland and France now. I'm trying to plan a trip for the weekend somewhere in the UK but I'll write about that when I actually take the trip. It's been challenging coordinating everything but, again, very worth it.
The day I come back conveniently falls on the last day of classes meaning all of my friends want to have a coming home thing that night. Well see how that all pans out but it would be nice since I'm coming home a little earlier than I expected.
Well, off to bed.
