Wowwie, i havent written in my xanga for a while!!

well i am finally home, after 4 months in the most amazing city!! i am so sad to be home, but excited at the same time, michelle told me that eap offers counseling haha.  According to some people "i've changed," i guess i am a super emotional mess these days, i cried when i said goodbye to my favourite teacher, and i totally creeped on her, i gave her 3 hugs haha!! it was a sad goodbye to london, but a somewhat warm welcome to cali??

Well i guess the wackness started when my luggage came rolling around the conveyor belt, and powder was spilling from it (i'm surprised they didnt mistake it for cocaine) i later discovered my powdered tea from whittard's had busted and it was all over my clothes haha.  Well michelle was almost late in picking me up from the airport, good thing my flight was late, she tried to be all sly about it, but when we went to pay at the ticket booth, it showed she had only been there for 15 minutes, shady.  We went back to her place, and then she kidnapped me to her friends bday party (now i know how steve felt when they kidnapped him after he had studied a year in barcelona, paybacks a bitch).  Anyways we drove all the way to mo-val and i passed out in the car, when we got to the party i was all groggy and i stumbled up the stairs and asked diana if i could sleep, and she brought me to a futon.  I kept hearing all these people pop their heads in and were like "dude shes trashed," and i was like "wtf, im just jet lagged!!" haha so anyways michelle comes rolling in a couple hours later and is like, "hey we are spending the night," so freaking 3 of us crammed into moes bed and laid horizontally while moe had to sleep on the floor.  So much for having a comfortable nights rest, my legs were hanging off the bed, and then my knees started to cramp up.  So the next day we went back to michelles and she was like "want to go to japanese?" i was all excited, and then she got lazy and took me to a japanese store, and we bought premade sushi and japanese ramen DIU!

The next day she left me to go to work, and i called up all my doctors to find out when my appointments were.  I called up my dentist to see when my wisdom teeth removal was scheduled, and she was like "tomorrow at 8:00am" i was like wtf, i asked if i could push it back, and she was like if you want to pay a cancellation fee, so i was like fine, i'll go in tomorrow, i might as well get it over with.  So much for eating american food, i've been surviving off pudding and yogurt for the past couple days, and hiding out because my face is all swollen, i hope i can eat solid foods by x-mas i will be super sad if i'm sipping on soup all xmas.

ok, i will have pics to post soon, unless i get lazy

i apologize for the hoochiness, but u must understand it was 400 degrees outside, and the lake, was not a lake at all, it was a freaking water reservoir so we couldnt even go in!!!

trunk by day, bar by night

hi! my name is roxanne an i am yellow trash

last night together

sorry it took me so long to update, but i am really lazy, it takes 4 hours to upload pics, no literally 4 hours and i dont want to update, but i will because i lub u all!!!

i shall start with my plane ride over here,

so i sat next to a 94 year old british woman, and she was really cute and adorable.  i kept trying to watch my movies but she would look over at me and start talking to me, so i had to take off my headphones and talk to her the whole time, but luckily she fell asleep for a tiny nap and i got to watch the pacifier, which really wasnt that bad.  anyways she was so cute and she kept telling me that i reminidner her so much of her adopted daughter's  daughter (from hong kong) she was like  "you look like her and u talk like her." how cute!! and i kept having to feed her becuase she couldnt poke her own food.


Getting settled in:

taking pics on the tube is highly embarrassing so you guys better appreciate this one
(i apologize for my roundness in this pic, its ok though because i will do alot of walking here, i promise)



Visit to the countryside (?):

i went to uxbridge to visit irene (rita's friend) who is now my family away from my family!! haha we went vegetable picking and i was sweating like a migrant worker, i almost had a heat stroke!! its like you do your own manual labor and then you still hafta pay for your own produce!! that is a lil bit dodgy if you ask me.

Hertford with the locals!

oh you crazy dutch girl!

scotish boy, rooney, phil, tiff, me and the dutch boy (i think his name is arty?)

the dutch girls and rooney

creepy moment of the week:
so me and tiff were coming back from hertford (the country) and we missed the last tube, so we were coming up the escalator and this creepy polish man, was gazing longingly (as our brit cinema prof would say) at us.  Then he was like "i love japanese ladies," and we were like WTF!! and he kept following us, and he said he knew where the bus station was so we kind of walked next to him, he kept saying how thirsty he was too and asked me for a piece of gum, and i was like "um...doesnt gum make your more de-hydrated?" and he was like "noooooooooooooooooooo...." (in a creepy perverted polish man voice).  He asked where we were heading, and we hesitantly told him and he was like "i am going there too" and then we got more creeped out, so we called the boys and told them to come wait for us at the bus stop, but they thought we were just being all drama, and evan's response was "should i roll with the crew???"



watch for my increasing paleness, and i apoligize for my crazy rats nest hair and my crazy bangs i know they are out of control but i bought a crappy £15 straightener, so deal!
