And I'm Proud to be an American

So this girl stops my friend Jordan at the bar the other night (the bar was called Brooklyn bar)...and she asks if we're all American. Why yes, yes we are Jordan says. The girl flipped out. Supposedly it's her dream to be American. She gushed about wanting to go bowling and then having sleepovers with her girlfriends and gossiping about how Becky is just the worst. I think she has quite the basic view of American girls. Quasi-accurate, though. Also, I do not know who Becky is, but this girl had something against her.

GUYS. I went to Wales and love love loved it. First stop was my castle. Lol jk, but we did stop at Conwy Castle. Unfortunately it decided to downpour on us, but the bus driver had extra umbrellas. New best friend!

Not only do I love the animal whales, now I really want to visit the country Wales (is it a country, I don't know) again. The UK is confusing.

I finally got fish and chips for real! They were delicious, but my stomach hurt from the greasy and fried goodness. Worth it. Also, I think my friends and I ate all the ketchup at that restaurant. Not sorry about it. They have lame ketchup portions in their packets here in Europe. STEP IT UP.

Shout out to my home friends because we passed a place while driving called Hong Kong, which is one of the funniest and quirkiest bars in Boston. I miss my frands.


After lunch we came back to our meeting spot in a cute little pier in the town Llandudno of Wales. There was a guy with an owl (named Angel) sitting with our group. Alright, I thought. But Jordan who is still afraid of birds *read last post to understand* could not handle it. It was strange; the owl had bright orange eyes. Never seen anything like it!

Then, a tragedy happened, I lost Mel. She went to go get donuts (these donuts were the best I've ever eaten in my whole life). I told her I'd wait, but I'm the absolute worst and followed the group as I forgot why I had been waiting. I'm a derp sometimes. Anyway, halfway up this hill we were walking I realized I had left Bae behind. Finally, after panicking, she comes up to where we were. PHEW. The head of the Chemistry department almost texted her (she can receive texts without wifi).

She looked so confused, and I asked her why it took so long to get donuts. Supposedly a little child asked her for help to find its mom. LOL. So she was a good samaritan, and she also got her donuts. Good day for Melanie.

We ended up on the top of the hill to catch a cable car to the top of a mountain. It was so cool, even though I'm afraid of heights. At the top I took this picture with Nicole, mind the wind.

It was an all-around exciting and beautiful day. And when we got down the mountain from the cable car, there was a cool hill you could toboggan down. I decided to explore the city instead. I found out when we all met up for the bus that the line for the toboggan had been too long. So my professor felt bad and bought us all alcohol for the bus ride home. I opted for sleep, but regardless, what is this life.

He's right...
