So, I'm really jet-lagged, but I'm due in for a new entry. I got back from England today, where I spent the past 6 days. And let me tell you... those were 6 days of fun in the sun! jk. There was barely any sun, and it was pitch-black by 4:30ish every day. But I did have fun! I stayed with my friend Alison [see below]...
Que bonita! We had a few good laughs about NickBJAirey and about how Judi always gives us a full itinerary of what she plans on doing within the next five minutes. har har. Oh... my first night there, Alison, Luisa, Alex and I went out to dinner and then to the Monkey's Forehead. So, we walk into the pub and see a bunch of twenty-somethings dressed in togas. Weirded out, we rushed through them all, straight to the bathroom, where we met a nice drunk girl who informed us that this was, in fact, a toga 21st birthday party for her friend, Lindsay. And it was private. Though we were utterly embarrassed, we ended up staying (being the only people dressed in normal clothes) and meeting Lindsay, herself. We met some guys and told them that "we go to Exeter... our mums went to uni with Lindsay's mum." So then the guys were like, "Oh, Exeter! Do you know so-and-so?" and we were like, "umm, no." "Well, do you know so-and-so?" "I'm afraid not..." "Do you even have any friends there?" haha. So, yeah. It was quite a fun night!
Those are the girls with the guest of honor.
Basically, the rest of my visit consisted of trips to London (where we met up with the HCHS group!) and going to school. And watching re-runs of That 70s Show and Scrubs while Alison did her mountains of IB homework. 'Twas very fun!
Nick and me with Nitin, himself! Okay, I don't normally wear my scarf like that, but it was raining, and I didn't want to get my head wet. I promise!
This is Luisa My Bisa. She's so great!!
Hmm, what else do I have to say? Oh, I have less than 100 pages left in Scar Tissue! I'm so obsessed... it's amazing. So Meagan and Ben-- you guys are gonna have to start fighting over who gets to read it next. Well, I guess that's about it. OH! I now am the proud owner of Caroline's Tahoe! Très exciting! And we also now have her precious cat, Dani, named after Anthony Kiedis' legendary girl. Haha I have a funny story about Caroline. So, she was going through security at the airport in preparation for her flight to Berlin on Wednesday (Wednesday? Maybe Tuesday...), when she attracted the attention of some officers. Apparently she had forgotten to take the "avacado-peeling knife" out of her backpack and sent it through the x-ray. Oh, Carmen. Care- feel free to comment on this and correct anything about the story that I got wrong.
Cheerio!

It was Tuesday, not Wednesday. You left out the part about how they asked to see all of my tattoos and got mad at me for laughing at the situation and told me that they may have to put me in cuffs if my criminal background check came back positive because it's a violation of california state penal code. And how the federal government may have a case on me AND how I may be red flagged whenever I try to travel from now on....
HAHAHHA you blog!
i love you vickit
love
alison
