What I've been up to

Well, I haven't done much reading lately, but I have a very good reason. Since, I don't have anything book related to share with you, I'll just tell you a bit of what I've been up to.

a view of Big Ben and the London Eye

Upon arriving in England at the Heathrow airport just five days ago, I have registered for classes, explored Kingston, explored Central London, found a beautiful park, and discovered my new favorite pub. 

In Kingston, there are so many great shops it will take me weeks to visit them all. I'm especially excited about Primark! Central London though is where I've had the most fun. In one day I saw the London Eye, Big Ben, Westminister Abbey, Buckingham Palace, Hyde Park, and the National Gallery. Then, just yesterday I found a beautiful park called Canbury Gardens, which was absolutely picture-perfect, right down to the man napping on the bank of the Thames to couples picnicking, and children playing football. I've absolutely loved my time here, and enjoy ending my days at the Kings Tun pub! 

I'll have some reading for you soon, but in the meantime enjoy these pictures :)

Leaving for London

This girl (ME) will be leaving for a 3-month study abroad in England in only 2 Days. TWO DAYS. Anyway, I have been busy busy busy this summer preparing for it, and the day has finally (almost) arrived. Needless to say, I will not be doing a whole lot of blogging when I have a brand new city to explore. I will certainly keep my lovely readers updated on everything that I do read, but my posts will likely be even fewer than they have been recently. Please feel free to contact me anytime. You may do so via my email or Twitter. Wish me luck!!

London in the Fall

Since I will be studying in London in the fall, I felt it necessary to prepare myself. Now I'd like to familiarize myself with some good British literature. Any suggestions?
