Hey everyone! I made it to London and I'm still alive. I flew out on Friday from Cleveland to Detriot to London in about 10 hours. I hopped on a bus at the airport and it took Forever to get into the city because of a car accident. Dad, I've seen tons of Jags and Aaron, BMW's are everywhere! I saw some of the city on the way in and it is gorgeous! The buildings are very old and ornate.
I'm living in an area of London called Bloomsbury and it is really cute! There are 8 girls in our flat and I share a room with Lindsay who's also from OU. All of the girls are really nice. We went on a tour last night and the RA showed us where all of the important local things are like the grocery store and the tube station. Beth, there is so much shopping by us!! We are right near Oxford St. which is known as a shopping street. This could be bad news, but as of day 2 I have done a pretty good job of holding myself back.
Today we went to campus for Orientation and I had a meeting about my internship. I should know by the end of the week who I will be working for. I think we're going out tonight to explore the city more! 
I have to cut this short because i'm at an internet cafe and I'm running out of time. There's so much to tell! We should get internet in our flat soon so I won't have this problem.
Miss you all!
