Here's some pics from Blenheim Palace!! (the Palace associated with Winston Churchill...born and raised there) ENJOY!!!

















Well good morning Fellow Blog readers! Today i am going to go to Blenheim Palace today to look around...it's another Day Trip! These things rule! We just go to some place on a friday and spend the entire day there! Today is Pay Day too...we get 56lbs every friday...and if you're smart, you can make it last the whole week...so thanks to that i haven't spent much of my OWN money yet...SMU is paying for a lot of my expences! So that's nice. The show is going well, i am almost ready for this! I just have to get confident in my lines and i'll be set! In my mind, i won't ever be good enough yet....there is always one more level i can bing it up to...but that's a good thing, right? Yes yes...in a way. Anyhow, i need to get ready for the day! Hope you're all doing fine! See ya!

so i have tried to update my page three times now and it won't work. sooooooo...here's the deal. I'm going to post some pictures for you..these are pics of the trip...i'll let you know what they are above them! Enjoy!

pretty building in cambridge!


more pretty building!


pretty courtyard of a college...STAY OFF THE GRASS!!!


This tree is composed of the same DNA of the tree that held the apple that fell on Sir Isaac Newton's head! Cool huh..it's an ancestor!


this is a man on a building at trinity college i think and he is holding a chair leg..it used to be something else, like a sward or something, but the students stole it and replaced it with a chair leg...so the school finally decided that it was just going to stay that way...so now he holds a chair leg!


This is a picture of Melanie and me in a phone booth in Cambridge! It's fun in there!


this is some people from this saturday at rehearsal for "Our Town" silly kids..hehe
Hi everyone! i don't have a lot to say, mainly because i have so much to say, it would take ages to write it all down! Yesterday i went to see a show in the Globe Theatre. We stood on the floor and watched the show from right in front of the stage. It was incredible to be there and experience that theatre. i've always learned so much about The Globe, but i've never seen it and never been there until yesterday. I saw the Shakespeare play " The Winter's Tale." it was funny! The first act dragged on a long time while the second act was very funny and went by quickly. The actors were amazing and it was just awesome to see a real shakespeare play in his old venue!!!! WOW!

Mom and dad have their 25th anniversary tomorrow and i want to wish them a very happy anniversary! That's a long time to be together and the two of you have made it work! I'm proud of you both and i love you very very much! Happy Day, Mom and Dad! <3

Welp, i'm at the library and i have some reading to do for class tomorrow and the remainder of the week, so i better be on my way. I miss you all and i can't wait to tell you more when i have the time. I'll try to post some pictures later on...i was at Cambridge on Friday and i have some beautiful pictures to share with you all, but they are on my computer back at the flat. so i'll try to get some of them on there for you to see. Cambridge is beautiful, but it's cold and wet. Ish! Such is England i guess! Oh well, time to get going. Be good everyone!

hey all! I'm sittin here in an internet cafe and i'm sad because i am not able to post any pictures on here right now. I don't have connection at home right now, so i have to be here at the cafe. i'm feeling kind of homesick these days, but i guess i better get used to that feeling because i'm not going anywhere for a long time. But my friends here are my family for the time being and they are all great. We've had a few run ins and a few small problems but we work them out!

went to The Globe Theatre today...shakespeare stuff..say a show and we were groundlings, meaning we stood in the pit (on the ground) and watched the show....we stood up against the stage and watched for three hours! lots of standing, but it was so fun! anyway...things are going well...i'm safe and sound! I'm a sleepy joe though, so i'm going to get going! ta alls....lates!

Hey all, well...i'm in London. Wow, it is a bit overwhelming. I have a few pics from the flight yesterday. Mel and i had a good time, we sat by one another on the plane...we were all in the same cabin of the plane except JC (John Clementz) he was in the cabin behind us. Anyhow, i'm going to get my oyster card today which is the card i need for all public transportation in London. Soooo, that is going to cost me a ton of money, but i know i need it...it will be less expensive than buying a 2.30LB tube pass one way each time i go somewhere. soooooo, yeah! Mel and i found the grocery store today and didn't think to bring a backpack with us to carry the heavy stuff...next time we know, it was like a loooooong way away and we walked there which was fine, but we had to carry it all back. UGH! next time we'll know better. We also have to find a place to "top up"our card so that we can call people on our cell phones. to "top up" is to put money on your phone so that you can have minutes to talk. then i can call my mommy. But not for a really long time. It is really expensive to make calls. But you know, you do what you have to do! Well, i think Mel is almost ready to go, so i'll catch ya later! PS...i have internet because i'm picking up a signal from someone across the way on my wireless card. soooooo, i'm popular here because everyone can use my computer to check their mail. So with that in mind, i will be able to update and e-mail a lot more than i thought. Anyway, time for pictures! Enjoy them! VIVA LONDON!

Well, it's official. I leave for London tomorrow! YIKES! I can't believe i'm saying that! I had an wonderful Labor Day weekend recently. I got to see my family, jamey, grandma and grandpa E, jackie, rick, brianna, Chris, mom and dad, and that was wonderful...but to top it off i got to see Heidi, Diana, Tim, and Jeffy! I had a brilliant time with all of them. It is so hard to say good-bye, but as a good friend once told me "it's not good-bye, Megan; It's so long. So, so long." And at the time it didn't seem to matter what he told me, because i wasn't going to be seeing him for a very long time, but now when i look back, it is such a great thing to say. So, because you're so wise, and you know who you are, i say "so long" in honor of you! *hug* I miss ya!

I'm truly going to miss everyone from home when i'm gone. It's going to be such an incredible experience for me though. I'm ready to take on the other half of the world and see what kind of things they have to offer me, but i do have one question. ARE THEY READY FOR ME? MUHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Watch out London, Here i come, and i'm bringin my friends with me! WOOOOOO! Anyway, i need to go to bed, i have a lot of packing left to do tomorrow. I love you all very much and thank you to all of you who made this past weekend so wonderful. you know who you are. I'm going to miss you very very much.

Good Night Fellow Friends!
