The Lion and the Unicorn (and now the Eagle too)

After a long plane ride and a double decker bus, I'm here in Central London! Right off the bat, we all had business to take care of. We had to get our passports copied and buy texts for classes. On our way to the FIE (Foundation for International Education) building, I was called upon to be "The Map"(aka the guy who knows where we're going). It's still too early, but we'll see if this becomes my thing, being the map guy. We all went on a walking tour around our area and the FIE housing buildings.

I had my first on my own experience tonight. After the walking tour, I broke off from the group to head back to the main FIE building to see about a SIM card for a phone. After that was done, I headed to a grocery store to buy dinner and something for breakfast. I bought two frozen dinners a frozen dinner and a frozen breakfast meal (mac n cheese for breakfast, yum!) and a bottle of water. After paying for my first British groceries, I headed back to my building, Manson Place, and began settling down for the night, sorting clothes and eating my frozen Waitrose creamy and succulent tagliatelle with ham dinner.

One thing I've found surprising is the amount of communication that I still have. Past trips across the pond have resulted in little to no Wi-Fi, no phone, thus no communication, and yet, I'm sitting in my room right now, checking Facebook and writing my blog. Looks as if I'm not so cut off after all.

I took little to no pictures today, but I'll hopefully be posting them tomorrow when I've taken more. Till then, later!
