I can't believe I am finally 21! I mean, here it doesn't make that much of a difference (actually, it makes no difference to anyone but me) but when I fly over that big salty pond (for what I fear to be the last time for a loooooooooong time) I will be able to go into the hotel bar and order a drink (which will make my 18 hour layover in New Jersey at least somewhat bearable!) Two days ago, I became legal to drink in every country! (except maybe Yemen, where they can chew legalized speed, but can't drink alcohol...strange!)

My birthday was great! I went on a riverboat and cruised the Thames for 4 hours, with the best meal I've ever had and dancing the night away! Afterward all off-licenses were closed, which turned out to be a good thing because the hotel had a 24 hour bar and a bartender who wanted my birthday to be memorable (or rather, so that I wouldn't be able to remember it...no worries, I remember everything). It was awesome!

Thanks to all who sent birthday wishes-big hugs! Kristen.

I got a package today and I opened it during my Sociology lecture where 300 people sit in a lecture theatre and strain to hear the lecturer. So I finally get the well-taped package open and you could immediately smell it! My crazy sister sent me tea!!! Haha! Oh, the irony! Do you know where I am right now? It's great though, because I was just running out and didn't have time to go to town to buy more tea. Yummy!!! I love my sister, we just connect... Big hugs! I'm zooming off to Paris tomorrow. Salut for now :)

I AM FINISHED WITH ESSAYS! at least for a while, long enough to celebrate! Final word count from 3 essays and a little over one week's of work: 6,145 (not that I am counting!) That is the equivalent of 24-25 pages (for those of us not into word counting, aka non-journalism major Americans). Wow, so I think I might sleep now...or perhaps a pint is in order?! Cheers! and a Double cheers!

Complaint: There has been entirely too LITTLE activity on weblogs recently. Reading happenings in the lives of loved ones is my sole source of entertainment whilst writing an essay. These said weblogs have just not been updated fast enough lately. Dammit! Hope online people, waffle out a few sentences and HELP ME PROCRASTINATE! for a minute or two. Give me something to chuckle about during these boring, boring episodes in the computer room. I'll even ask nicely: dearest friends, please update your blogs frequently, so as to give the most amount of pleasure to the most number of people (hedonistic utilitarianism, you gotta love it!). I beg this of you. PLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAASSSEEEEEEE!!!!!!! Thanks.
