hey there! well today was pretty fun : ) i only had one class today, wisdom and literature with dr willis, and it started at 12:30pm!!! so after it was over, me and sarah and josh decided to go shopping. i dont think josh knew what he was getting himself into though... our first stop was this little french pastry place. i got a chocolate filled croissant!! : ) it was SO yummy!!!! then we went to w h smith to get school supplies, me being stupid figured it would be better to buy them here... but everything here is twice as much as in the states. so i bought my paper, planner, highlighters, pens and pencils that cost about $30... : / i guess that was all josh thought "shopping" entailed lol but he was so wrong! me and sarah went into a million stores shopping for black flats and jeans and purses and just clothes in general. poor josh! but he did get a pair of pants : ) so i bought a hot pink skirt that has light pink tulle underneath and multicolored sequins on top. and two pairs of black sequined shoes, a cute pair of jeans that fit me well ; ) and a coral shirt and a creme sequined shrug. i spent about $200... oh well. so then we came back and i talked to carino for a bit- awwww i miss her so much! and then me, sarah, brent, kelly and josh went to summertown(a small town about a 15 min walk away) to get groceries at the co-op because they deliver to your house if you buy more than 35 pounds of groceries. so then we trekked back and talked about our travel plans. brent and josh decided they are going to try to fly to portugal over thanksgiving break(we have six days, but if we skip two classes on monday we can make it a nine day trip!) and see coldplay and then hit the south coast of spain and spend six days there and then take a 30 min ferry to morocco and spend a day or so there. im so jealous! i would love to do that! can you imagine how cool that would be if i could say i went to africa??? but me and sarah are planning on going to italy for those nine days and going to spain in october. well im quite distracted right now because i am again talking to people here in the lab lol so ill post later... ~jen
