Today my first flight was in the morning, a short trip from CT to NY on a nearly empty plane. The guy across from me actually looked like he was more terrified than me. Take off was terrifyingly horrible, landing was horrible, but flying was pretty smooth. The sky was beautiful.
Oh, and did I mention what the in flight movie was?
Finally we landed, it was still pitch black outside, I got through customs with no questions, got my luggage with no trouble, got on the train as soon as I got to the platform, and got off at the right stop on my first try. I walked with someone named Alex (ironic huh?) who was from Wisconsin, got to the check in, and went on my own to find my flat. I was the first one from Temple here so I got to haul my suitcase up 6 flights of steep stairs alone, but I got to pick my bed. I took the one in the corner kind of away from everyone else:
After a few hours everyone else was here, we went to check in and get our schedules, went on a tour of Kensington and got our ID's and tube passes. Now we're all home and working on getting to bed. Everyone is exhausted and we need to be at the school for 9:30 tomorrow morning.
Exciting things that happened today:
I got word about my internship. If I get it, it would be the best possible thing ever.
3 of us found out that we're all whedonites and talked about Joss and Buffy for about 1/2 hour
