Lets play a game...

The name of the game is One Year ago Today....

One year ago today I began what would be the craziest weekend adventure of my life. We call that weekend "A Journey to find a Cab." You should read it. The morning we left for Northern Ireland was an adventure and our first outside of England, we had a lot to learn.  But looking back the chasing down a cab at 2:30 am, and then realize I've left my cell phone and flight and train confirmation numbers on the

 table where I signed us out at 2:30 am. (Trust me after that we all ALWAYS had 3 copies of our flight info on us.) We learned to actually pay attention to what station our train left from and when the tube lines were open and closed. 

That weekend was wonderful. We hiked Giants Causway, attempted to find the 20,000 puffins while we made up songs about puffins, we got in the North Sea (per a requirement of the boys to touch it), we went to the next city based on what some guy on a train told us to do, saw Atonement, and we almost rented a car. 

I can't believe that a year ago I was in London, it seems very surreal. I can't believe how nervous I was about living in the house with 18 strangers, that are now some of my closest friends and I have no idea how I lived with out. There is so much I didn't know a year ago, there is so much I hadn't seen. There is still so much to know and to see. 

I might be going back to London for Jan term, we'll see how it plays out. However I did start, seriously looking at Grad Schools in the UK, I mean why not. And I have a meeting next week to talk with our International Studies Office, to get some advice on moving to, and going to grad school in the UK. That's terrifying and wonderful, and too good to be true all at the same time. 

I guess the Journey to Find a Cab is still somewhat continuing in my life. I'm not looking for a cab right now, but I'm still on a Journey for something, and right now I don't know how or when I'll find it (I don't even know what it is). I just know that I have to find it, my next adventure is waiting on me to find it.
