It's been a while! HI!

Hi everyone!
It's been a while since I have written to you all. Life was hectic this week because it was my first week of "exercises" as they call them here. Basically tests and projects due for our first grades. Up to this point I have no idea what kind of student I am because we havent gotten any grades. Next week I will be able to tell you how I did!. At the moment I am in the middle of an assignment and am very very sick of Microsoft Power Point!! It's due tomorrow so this will have been a very productive week once I'm finished.
This weekend I am making plans to take my first trip out of London!! Exciting! My friend Sara is coordinating a day trip to Bath and Stonehenge (sorry Mom, I'll go again when you come...or we can go somewhere else!) I will spend the rest of the weekend "shopping in the name of research." I swear my professors told me to go shopping...trust me, where I'm going (Bottega Veneta and Chanel) I can't afford anything anyways.
I find it amazing that there are only 5 weeks 'til Christmas! Very exciting! I cant wait to go shopping for some fabulous gifts! And I can't wait to come home and have some normal food and see all my family and friends! And I am sad to say I actually miss Nordstrom...it's wierd not working retail during the holiday season. I know you will all think I'm crazy for saying that but I really do miss the psychotic work schedule and sassy Nordstrom shoppers! I will be sure to come visit. (I miss the discount too...I spent the other night making a shopping cart on the web site filled with Half-Yeary stuff and when I was done it was like $2000!! I didnt get anything, but I got pleasure just out of making the shopping cart full! Shopping is a SICK disease!)
Side note for Nordstrom employees: Genette Diggs is coming to visit with Felicia over the next month and I will be visitng with both of them soon. I talked to Felicia yesterday and she is doing well and told me she thinks the baby is coming in the next 2 weeks!!! Even though shes not due until Dec. 4th! Shes a trooper...very tired and still finishing her semester at school. I'll let you know what happens! I'm on London baby watch!
Anyways, I have to get back to my massive Power Point. I'm going to put on another disk of FRIENDS in the background and get to work. It was fish and chips for dinner tonight...I was planning to lose a few lbs. while I was over here but I couldn't resist!

Miss You ALL!!
TTFN
