Here Comes the Sun - The Beales - Abbey Road

Seriously. Abbey Road. The Beatles. I went there today...and HERE COMES THE SUN...I come home in two weeks from today. I hope you guys can handle it. :P

SO let me backtrack and tell you about today.

Today is Thursday...so I had politics this morning. Each time I have a politics class I realize more how much I hate it. I hate it soooo much. Ugh. Not necessarily the class, but the subject. It just makes me want to fix the world and I know I alone can't.

But today we talked about A Man for All Seasons. The class discussion was pretty interesting. I don't know what I'll write my paper for that play on yet. But we'll see...I'll keep you updated I'm sure...apparently my goal for this blog right now is to constantly update you on my homework.

Anywho I got up early enough to meet Kemper outside so we could try this new coffee place. Well, she already had tried it, but I wanted to try something new. Every Thursday I essentially have to have coffee to get through the day - it's like my Friday. So, you know, I need a little extra push.

I got a Mocha...but I think they may have given me a latte or at least forgotten to put the chocolate in it. Oh well, it still was pretty delicious. I had enough caffeine to pay attention. Alright so after class we went to the post office today. I'm sending my last post cards this coming week...so WOW. Let's see if they get home before I do. ;)

After that escapade (which I must stop and give you a side note: for the first time in three months I had a really great post office employee help me out today. He was very nice, which is a rarity in London...) Kemper, Erin and I found ourselves getting off of the tube in St. John's Wood. ST. JOHN'S WOOD. Abbey Road, anyone? Excuse me? Look at the pictures that I am posting on this thing. Totally couldn't help it...it had to be done.

Anywho I had an amazing awesome time and managed to have my camera this time around. So that was helpful. I finished writing my first draft for my Beatles paper today. I just need to freshen it up a bit and put in a good conclusion and then hopefully my presentation will flow from my paper. I'm really glad I picked something I was so interested in, because I think it'll be easy to talk about.

So, after that we went to the store, Kemper, Hillary, and I. I decided that I wanted to have baked salmon for dinner...so I made some. It was absolutely delicious. I'm proud of myself...I didn't really think I was capable...but I liked it! I thought since Salmon was such a fresh thing over here that they had a lot of I should try and get some before I leave...you know? Hmmm...14 days.

We all cooked over at Kemper's. Hillary and Kemper had some crazy awesome grilled cheese and Kemper made some home-made biscuits. Also...there were fresh cookies. I had three of them...I'm going to just have to tell you now that I've never had better M & M cookies. :) I like the M & Ms with the peanuts the best. :P

So we did that and chilled and talked and I took a mini nap on the couch over there because I'm having a hard time sleeping I'm so excited about coming home. I'm on the downhill stretch here! 14 more days! 14 MORE DAYS! I have a homework and London schedule planned out so that I get to do all the things that I was banking on in the last days here so I'm going to be a busy beaver! (Busy bumblebee?)

Anywho so tomorrow we're going to Oxford. I'm going to get a sweatshirt so I can pretend to be all scholarly when I get back to Hendrix. Ha! Besides that I'll have to update you tomorrow about how the day goes!

I MISS YOU GUYS! So, so close.

Cheers!
