Here is the layout for the house that I am staying in. It's house 153 and Jill, my roommate, and I will be living in bedroom one on the first floor. I like the fact that it's only Jill and I on the ground floor.

With two days left, I am getting really nervous. Many mixed feelings keep on popping in and out too. I am excited to go on this experience but scared because I am starting something independently in another country. I just can't go home.
My dad and I got travelers checks today (most confusing things ever) and I got a credit card.
I still haven't packed yet. Right now, it is 70 degrees in England. That is the high, at least. Looks like there is no need for shorts! I am still trying to deal with the fact that I need to pack a whole years worth of clothes in one 50-lb suitcase, one 25-lb carry-on and my purse. I have decided to bring another suitcase. All of my shoes are coming with me whether I have to pay for another suitcase or not. I love them too much.

Hurricane Earl should make this trip interesting. Right now it is a category 4 and should reach the coast of MD by 2 pm on Friday. Here is to it dying before it reaches here so my flight isn't delayed.
