Today we went to Stratford-upon-Avon (Shakespeare’s birthplace), and I found Studio Ghibli merch at the Royal Shakespeare Company gift shop! I got a mini plush Totoro holding a leaf!

Study Abroad London, Day 5
Woah y’all, crazy day today! I rode a train for the first time, visited Lincoln Cathedral, posed with a statue of George Boole (of boolean fame), watched part of the Lincoln Grand Prix (bicycle race), and survived despite my continued cold! I’m completely worn out. I also noticed that I was significantly less anxious today.…
Study Abroad London, Day 4
Today I had a cold, so I stayed behind at Harlaxton and slept for 10 hours. I’m sad I missed today’s activities; the rest of the group went to Chatsworth House, and I was looking forward to going. Although, I’m feeling much better now, so I should be set for tomorrow. I’m thinking about all…

Resting v2, Day 28
“What’s one thing you did today?” I got another ukulele! It’s a 21″ soprano and it’s so cute! I just realized I haven’t posted photos of my first ukulele. Photos are in order, but probably not very soon.
Resting v2, Day 27
“What’s one thing you did today?” I rested.
Resting v2, Day 26
“What’s one thing you did today?” I tried to rest, but I didn’t really rest. I’m feeling down.
Resting v2, Day 25
