I received my study abroad acceptance letter today. I am going to London next spring.
And reader, you must excuse this eager and premature commencement of blogging, for I cannot contain my excitement. I am going to London. Next March, I will finally set foot in the country I have discovered and admired from afar through novels read, films watched and of course the BBC. I will enter the land of the Brontës, Charles Dickens, Shakespeare, Jane Austen, Virginia Woolf, The Beatles, Doctor Who, Masterpiece Theatre, C.S. Lewis, Mary Shelley, Harry Potter... the list could go on and on. That's just the tip of the iceberg.
I hope to keep up this blog through the months of preparation and throughout the ten week trip -- reporting my stories and adventures for friends and family. Today is just the beginning.
Until the next major development.
