So much to do, so little time!
I can't believe it's already July 7th! Time is flying and I move back to Oklahoma in just 3 short weeks.
Last Monday our London Experience III session began so things around the house are as busy as ever. Every session we have an international evening program and this time around it just happend to fall on the 4th of July. We had a big party and taught the canadians (plus all of our international staff) how to celebrate the 4th in true American style. Erin and I sat up a watermelon seed spitting contest which was lots of fun.
Last week I went to the Harry Potter premiere in Leicester Square which was WAY cool to be a part of. Erin and I got there really early (although we didn't camp out the night before as we had previously planned) and actually managed to make it inside the square. I got a really great seat.. errr.. .stand! I was the third head from the railing, but the guy behind me felt bad that I was so short and let me stand on his chair so I could see everything. I kinda felt sorry for everyone who didn't even make in the square, but I guess that's their own fault... I saw Harry, Ron, Hermione, Malfoy, Crabbe, Goyle, Prof. Flitwick, Prof. Umbridge, Bartie Crouch, Mrs. Dursley, Dudley, Fred & George, Ginny, Neville, Luna, Cho, Seamus, Prof. Filch, JK Rowling and probably some other people who I can't remember right now. It was certainly an experience :)
Yesterday I walked alllll over souvenir shopping for friends and family - Does anyone have any requests? Today I'm hanging out at home cleaning my room, doing laundry, catching up on sleep and going through stuff in my room that I don't plan on taking back with me.
My friend Maya is coming to stay with me July 21st - 31st and I'm ready for an amazing time with her. Out of the 10 days she is in town I managed to get 7 of them off which is really exciting. We're going to Brussels (Belgium) and World Scout Jamboree among other things. I'm also going to Norway this month - EXCITEMENT!
Now for a couple of pictures:
My not-so-new room pictures to start with I suppose...

I'll spare you my closet and sink area pictures as it is a mess ;)!
