So, tonight is my last night in London; it's pretty bittersweet actually - leaving one home for another. I feel like London has been like a second home to me. I'm going to miss walking to uni along Portsmouth Road and seeing the Thames River, especially in the early morning when the fog is over the river. I'm going to miss wandering around the Kingston shopping centre. I actually think I'm going to miss the rain too. I've decided I like the London weather better than Michigan anyway. It will be nice for all the cars to be on the correct side of the road though. That seriously still makes me dizzy. One thing that will be strange will be hearing everyone talk like me, pronouncing words like "tomato", "zebra", "status", "aluminium", "jaguar"... and I can say "pants" again without getting laughed at.
I'll be leaving for the airport in less than twelve hours. While I'm not looking forward to the nine-hour flight, I can't wait to see my family (well, some of my family) at the airport and the rest when I get home (Kristi, you better be ready for me because I will probably tackle you with hugs.)
Studying abroad has been the most wonderful experience. I would do it again in an instant! I wonder where I'll travel to next....
