Up, Down and trying to get back Up

Today was fun until 8pm. I found myself all over London, I FOUND A CHIPOTLE!! Lunch tomorrow, I went to the Tate Modern which is a really cool modern art museum and then I made way back home after long day on my feet. I registered at 8pm London time for Fall quarter and of course it has been a hassle. I need a class that is only offered in the Fall and the teacher won’t give me a permission number to add the class (because I am taking a prereq for the class at the same time) until he gets back from his conference so I had to scramble and find a third class.. ugh this was the downer of that day. I am so frustrated I just want to be down with Cal Poly get married and move on with life. I just keep seeing the $$ signs add up on dang loans and I am over it! SCREW SCHOOL! Ha I know I know got to make Mom and Dad proud but seriously school has never been my thing. So now I am trying to drown the other flat mates out with the loud music in my ear phones as I chat on AIM with a friend and Aris. Can’t wait to get back home but also am going to miss it here. Prolly more than I think. Well its 9pm now I haven’t eaten dinner yet and I need to get something in my belly.  See you all soon I’ll be home in 21days!!

Well I got a hold of EuroStar today, they said my card would be credited back in 5 business days. I am crossing my fingers everything goes smoothly after that. Today was a BEAUTIFUL day. The sun was out, it was close to 70 degrees and it was no pretty outside. I strolled thru the park, did some shopping it was wonderful. It is suppose to be like this for the rest of the week so I am looking forward to that.
Nothing to exciting has been happening or has happened since my EuroStar disaster. But will blog again soon when I have more to share 

F*@! Eurostar

So! We tried to journey to Paris today on the Eurostar and didn’t make it very far. Stopped in Ashford (not like you know where that is, but it’s not far from London). There was a fire in the Euro tunnel and we got stopped for 2 hours. Since our trip was a day trip Wendy and I decided to terminate and head back to London! We were told the train wouldn’t get the next news update till 10am and it was 9am so we walked to the other platform to catch a train back and as we are sitting in the coffee shop looking at the window at the Eurostar train we just departed from across the track we see it take off!!! >: o It was like a since out a movie as our jaws dropped.

Anyway, we were told Eurostar might refund us since it was something out of our control, but we can’t get a hold of Eurostar!! So Wendy and I decided Pizza, Malibu, Pineapple Juice and getting me a Louis Vuitton would be a better day/night for us! SO here we are pizza in our face dancing and sipping on some gin… I mean juice… I mean Malibu!! =)

Barcelona Baby

So this past weekend a few girls and I went to Barcelona, Spain. It was quite an adventure to get there….. Short story- we missed our flight because we didn’t know that because we have non UK passports we needed a stamp on our boarding pass, so they didn’t let us board.

Note: We had an 8am flight so we got up at 4am to leave and catch the bus to the airport

We were escorted back through security and had to purchase another ticket because the company we were flying with does cheap flights and they are not refundable. Then to add on top of everything the only other flight to Barcelona was from a different airport and at 6pm so we bought the ticket, got a ticket for a coach to take us to the other airport and then continued our journey to the second airport. We decided just to go straight there regardless that the flight left at 6pm at it was only 9am. We got there about noon and spent the next 6 hours in the airport. It was a long day but we eventually made it and arrived in Barcelona at midnight local time.
The city is beautiful and ended up being a very enjoyable weekend. Pictures are up on facebook for you to check out. It’s not all of them but you can get an idea. It was so nice to feel the sun on my skin. The food was nothing to rave about though; I’m finding that to be a common thing here in Europe. HA!
That’s all for today, I haven’t been feeling to swell today so I am going to go rest some more.

I will be home in 38days!!

So far I need on my places to eat as soon as I get home:
Islands (duh)
Chipotle
Red Robin
Wahoo’s
Some good fried rice
