It's hard to believe that the last blog post I wrote was months ago. In that time I enjoyed my last semester at SUNY Oswego with some amazing people, had a pretty awesome graduation party (from what I remember; damn you gin and tonics), and applied/got accepted into an internship program in London. I leave for the program in, oh about, four hours!
Yes, I'm very pleased to say that this blog will once again turn into a travel blog, another journey of a mad white woman. I'll be living in Camden, apparently a hipster town with lots of great pubs, and working at the Centre for Brain and Cognitive Development. I could not be more happy with the internship placement, exactly the one I was hoping for when applying for the program.
I've been itching to travel abroad again ever since I got back from Spain. The memories still feel like yesterday, but it's been over a year since I touched down in a sea of Spanish and well dressed people. Now I'll be arriving in a sea of British English and well dressed people. I just hope the same thing doesn't happen at customs like the last time I was in England: For the life of me I could not understand the man who was taking my passport. It was utterly embarrassing. He threw my passport back at me and said, "Get used to the accent." I was horrified. Wasn't he not speaking English?
Well lets hope that doesn't happen again, but now I have to catch my flight. Write again when I'm across the pond!
Cheers.
