London

I really want to go to London. The last week or so it’s all I’ve been able to think about. I was there for a few days when I was sixteen and I want to go back so badly it’s almost ridiculous! I’m craving travel and another country a lot. I don’t think I could live there forever but a year or so would be nice. I know it rains constantly but I love the rain and it would be nice to have such a break from the horribly hot weather here. London just seems so perfect. I love the accents, the landmarks, the lifestyles, the people, the history, the culture, the broadway, and just the feeling you get when you’re there. Surprisingly, I also liked the food :) I felt so high spirited and joyful when I was there and part of me wants to go grab my passport and life savings and just take off right now! I want to live somewhere with a real history, one that goes back thousands of years before the New World was even such a place. I think it would make you really feel a part of something bigger and a connection to so many people throughout history, I don’t feel like that is something I can get here right now. It seems like everything here is so shiney and new and people in general are so much more superficial than they would be if they lived in small little buildings that were older than their great great grandparents…who knows though…maybe just one of my silly little dreams.
