Hey look, I'm in England.

After two plane rides, at least 4 cups of coffee, and 30+ hours without sleep I finally have a minute to sit down and write all about how I am in England now! Let me just say not sleeping for over a day is rough. I apologize in advance for any crazies that my brain throws in here. 

We all had to be at the airport on the 12th by 9:15 (which shockingly we mostly were) and the flight from Minneapolis to Newark (which is apparently in New Jersey, and apparently everyone but me knew that) was pretty uneventful. We didn't die in a fiery plane crash or anything. And really the only things worth mentioning about the layover that we had in Newark were that I got charged like both my arms for a huge cup of Ben and Jerry's when I asked for a small, and that there was a rogue pigeon flying around inside the building next to our gate. I feared for our luggage. 

Then we boarded what had to have been the longest flight of my entire life. It was really only like six hours and two minutes, but it felt like at least ten. And a half. I just have a really hard time sitting still in general and that was like a form of torture during which I was forced to stay awake and watch bad television. However the exception to that was that I finally saw Kung Fu Panda 2, which has to be at least the second cutest movie ever. Better than the first I think. Anyway, after that looonnnggg flight I was feeling a little under the weather, but I perked right back up after I saw how freaking amazing Worcester is. It is one of the prettiest, cutest towns/cities I have ever seen. And I am not just biased, it really is cute and I will get some good pictures up when I have a chance. I was also pleased to see how gigantic my room is. My bedroom and bathroom are both handicap accessible which means I have this big open room and like nothing to put in it. But my wallet will fix that problem sooner or later.

So all in all I have had a pretty good first day here in Worcester. Although to be honest it feels like it should be 1:30 right now and that is kind of messing me up. But that might also have something to do with my lack of sleep, which I will be remedying quickly.    

Saying goodbye to my mom.
