There's one good thing in particular, and his name is Peter Pan. Lis and I went to eat dinner with him tonight, and he's just as boyish and wonderful as always. It was a welcome break after waking up early and working on the job search literally all day.
This morning began with my first tube ride to Farringdon Station when we walked to BUNAC for our orientation. It was such a relief to see the offices and assure myself that this org really is legit. We had our orientation with about forty other students, and we learned all about how the British Government will tax us within an inch of our lives, but we'll survive because that's the only choice. Thus, Lis and I will get awesome paying jobs that God is going to provide for us, and it's going to be fantastic. Note the future tense... it hasn't happened yet... keep praying. :)
We also got our mobile phones today, which was another huge walk. Did I mention I did this all in heels? Yeah, not a mistake I'm making again. After that was another trek back to BUNAC to apply for jobs all afternoon. Hopefully we'll make some headway with that tomorrow.
In other news, I'm obsessed with Hyde Park. There are parks everywhere in the middle of the city, and it makes me feel more settled somehow. The pace of this place is busy and hectic, so it's nice to have green places where I can breathe a little deeper. And the dogs get free reign in the parks, so it's a hoot to watch them wrestle with each other. Maybe we should get a dog... what do you think, Lis?
I wish I had something grand and adventurous to post here, but it's all just real life. Real life that's far away from all of you.
More to come soon-
Sarah
