Okay, well I made it to London safe and sound! I'm going to do my best to remember everything that has happened so far, but I'm so exhausted that I'm barely conscious of what's happening.

First off I have to tell the story about my passport for those who haven't heard. Saturday morning I woke up and realized that I didn't have my passport at home. I was of course panicked and I thought I threw it in the trash, but realized I had left it in the scanner when I went to make copies. So my friend Lacey luckily had the key because she's subleasing my apartment, and since she had to leave for work she gave Candace the key who then went to find my passport. Having found it, I had to find someone to bring it to Kansas City or St. Louis as a VIP (Very Important Package) on a NorthWest flight. Luckily I got a hold of Jordon just as she was about to leave Columbia for Kansas City.

Sunday Mom and Jeff drove me down to Chicago for the group flight from O'Hare, so I got in the car at about 9 and we got there around 4:30 or so. I got on the flight at about 5:15 and we took off a little before 6. The seats were pretty cramped but I got lucky enough to have an aisle seat with an empty seat next to me so I had a little more room. I waited until after dinner to sleep because they usually pass over you for food if you're asleep. By that point there was about 5 hours left of the flight so I tried to sleep for the rest of it but it was so uncomfortable that it didn't work very well, even my neck pillow didn't help. They served a egg muffin for breakfast and then we landed about an hour later around 8.

We waited around a while and then got on coaches to head to our flats. When we got there we had to haul our luggage up the stairs, luckily ours is only on the second floor. We had a few minutes to settle down before we had to leave for lunch and we used it to exchange our dollars for pounds (the exchange was bad today, about 1.6 plus a service charge for changing). We walked to Imperial College and had fish and chips for lunch. Then we went and had about an hour and a half of health/safety/information orientaion.

Then we walked back to our flats and I went with Linden and Amanda (my roommates within the flat, there are three other girls in the flat too) to get go-phones and groceries. When we got to the grocery store we realized that most of their food expires within a day or two because of the lack of the use of preservatives. So for right now were somewhat stumped and are going to have to go to the store nearly everyday.

Now we're back at the flat for the rest of the night. There is a pub crawl starting at 6 but the three of us are so tired we decided to pass. I think that a pub crawl is the last thing I need to help me get over jet lag, but a lot of people are set on going. Overall an uneventful day and I don't really feel like I'm in London, but I'm sure tomorrow once the fog of being tired wears off I'll be much more excited.
