Sunny London Days

One thing I've realized is this isn't simply a "trip" - it's quite much to call it that. Nor does simply calling it a trip address the main reason why I'm here, which is of course, school. I only started classes last week, but I'm sincerely enjoying them all. My favorite, perhaps, is a writing course; I prefer the analytical side of English to simply reading and interpreting literature.

I'm regaining confidence in myself. I can't describe it any other way besides simply odd that upon coming here, I felt, in some aspects, inferior to others. My classmates, strangers, friends at home, etc. I suppose it has a bit to do with the fact that I'm in a new environment and thus entirely vulnerable. I'm adjusting. Becoming more reassured. It's nice.

Despite thoroughly enjoying my classes, I'm questioning once again it is that I want to do. Currently, my major is jewelry and metals. It is something I do quite love, but I don't know that it necessarily matches my goals as an aspiring artist. With that being said, my current university doesn't offer either of the majors I'd want to switch to - architecture or fashion design. Keep in mind I'm a very fickle being, and I change my mind constantly. It happens.

I have nothing scheduled on Fridays, which means my weekend has begun! I do hope to find something exciting to do, but I don't seem to be as into going to clubs as the rest of my peers. Big crowds aren't my thing, especially when the music is awful.

Well, enjoy the rest of your week! I know I will - temperatures nearly in the 30's (Celsius) this weekend!

  2. Love the idea of tying a knot in your top, cute skirt & shoes too! Don't worry, it always takes awhile to adjust to new places & aah, picking a major- so stressful!
