The last few days

Wow. I can't beleive this is it. We're mostly packed in Flat D and have been slowly but surely cleaning up everything; this sure is a process. For the past few days I've been taking it kind of slow actually. Friday I did some shopping and went out for the 'best pad thai in London' according to Megan and Amanda (it was pretty good). Yesterday I went back to Hampstead with Megan and we spent the afternoon sitting on top of the hill overlooking the city reflecting on life. Then last night we said our final goodbye to London. We took the #6 bus down Edgeware and Oxford Street then we got off at Piccadilly and walked to Trafalger and then ran down Whitehall so we could be on Westminister bridge as Big Ben chimed for midnight. We stood on the bridge for a bit and then said goodbye to London. It was bittersweet, as the whole ending experience has been.

Its so hard to sit here and think about everything that we've done this semester. I have learned so much and feel that I've grown up a lot as well. I have fallen in love with London and everything it has to offer. I have gotten to know the most amazing group of people and will miss them a lot. But, its time to come home. I am content with what I have accomplished and am ready to come back to the good 'ol US of A. See you all soon!! We get into Raleigh around 2:30 tomorrow so I'll update the blog one last time to let you all know we made it back safely .
