The Princess Diaries

So, something very scary happened to me yesterday. I only had my 1:30 class, which was great because I stayed up and watched the Royal Wedding...which was AWESOME! And it made me very excited that I will be in London in just over a week, and it also made me kind of sad that I will only be there for about 10 hours, but as long as I can hit up a Pret A Manger for a ham and cheese pastry I'll be fine.

Yesterday I had 3 papers due. One of those needed to be taken to my 1:30 class. I was trying to be on top of things, and knowing that this week would be a little crazy, I wrote that paper last Friday, typed it up, and saved it onto my flash drive thing so I could print it out later. I went up to the English lab early, like 12:45, but I had other things I needed to print off, so I didn't immediately go to my Lucky Jim paper.

But when I did go to my Lucky Jim paper, what did I find? NOTHING! Just a blank document. BUT, luckily, I write all my papers down, and then type them, and luckily, I had the right notebook in my backpack. There wasn't much time before class, so I quickly typed it up. But once I got it typed up and printed out...there were no staples! There are usually like 6 staplers next to that printer, and of course, there was only one there, and it had no staples. So I grabbed a piece of tape, and taped it together.

I ran, yes, ran all the way to my next class because I was late. That means I ran across the quad, and up two flights of stairs. Then I told my class the entire story, the hung on my every word. And then my teacher asked if the boy on my shirt was my boyfriend, I told him I wished. Then my teacher told me he loves his movies. I was wearing one of my Harry Potter shirts. Yes, one of them, I have 4.

You know what happens today(ish) people. I will take a nap, write a stupid paper, eat lunch with a friend, probably watch Grey's Anatomy (there is a new one on finally) and then write more of that stupid paper, and about 2 a.m.-BAM!

IT'S ROYAL WEDDING TIME!

Definitely my favorite quote of the week has been "Is that Royal Wedding Week approved?"

Cemeteries of London

So here's the plan:


  • May 8th 11:15 a.m.-Leave Salt Lake City



  • 3:20 p.m.-Arrive in Chicago



  • 6 p.m.-Leave Chicago



  • May 9th 7:50 a.m.-Arrive in London



  • Spend the next 12 hours in London



  • 8 p.m.-Leave London



  • May 10th 6:30 a.m.-Arrive in Kenya



  • 9:05 a.m.-Leave Kenya



  • 10:20 a.m.-Arrive in Uganda


We'll see how that goes. But I can't wait. I got my shots, ouch, 3 in each arm, plus some oral immunizations, plus allergie meds (spring is here, even if it is still snowing a little), plus ibuprofen to deal with sore arms...we'll just say I took a very long nap yesterday to help my body deal with what was goin on in there.


Also, someone left a Justin Bieber movie on my porch. I would like to know who you are, so please tell me so I can express to you in person how much I love you. And I think the universe really wants me to watch the Royal Wedding, because all my classes have been cancelled on Friday except for one, and that is at 1:30 p.m., AND, I have already written my paper that is due. Fantastic. Just rockin' out to my Royal Wedding Week approved Coldplay. NBD. And incase Caroline Reale is reading this, I love you cuz.
