The Two Month Post

I can't believe it was 2 months ago today that I got on the plane and came over here. Whats even crazier is how fast the past month has flown by. I feel like I just wrote my one month post. I did so much traveling this past month that it went by even faster then the first one. I have one month and five days left of my study abroad experience. That is absolutely nuts. I have four more weeks of classes, a reading week, and then I go home. I have one more trip planned out of England and still a lot of things to do and see in England. Work is starting to pick up but it is hard to find the motivation to write my papers when I would rather be out seeing other parts of London.

I had my first taste of homesickness last week but luckily it didn't last long. Also, knowing I do not have that much longer out here pushes that feeling aside. I have had such a crazy two months. I have done things I never thought I would on this trip. I traveled on my own in a foreign country without any issues. If that's not a confidence boost I don't know what is. I have a new feeling of independence. So many more doors for my future are now opened. This entire experience has already shown a growth in me. When I go home in just over a month I'll be curious to see how much I really have changed and matured.

I really just can't believe that it has been two months. Everyone said it would go by fast but I never thought it would go by this fast. I want the next month to slow down a bit. I want to continue to enjoy my time out here as it is quickly coming to a close. I want to keep checking things off my bucket list. The next two weekends I am booked with traveling between a few trips in England and my Thanksgiving trip to Portugal. I will then spend my last 3 weekends in London with my friends and taking in every aspect of this city that I have grown to love. I have never been happier and I hate that all this is flying by and will be over so soon. I have one more month to live up this trip of a life time and I plan on doing just that.

Cheers,
Allie
