Cheers!

I spent a month in England. What was I doing there for a month, you wonder?

I did an internship at a university. I did not take classes, I worked at the university. My degree is in higher ed leadership. We have to complete two internships for the degree, so this was one.

I worked 4 days a week, leaving the other 3 to explore England. I visited Manchester, Liverpool, Birmingham, and even ventured up to Scotland.

It was all very interesting.

I stayed with a host family. I really wasn't that bad. It was actually pleasant. I wouldn't want to do it again, though. They did our laundry and had a maid, too.

I'm not a fan of traditional English food. But I ate way too much over there. I like prawn (shrimp) sandwiches. They seem to have more desserts available. They even have Ben and Jerry vending machines!!!! I gained weight and didn't exercise but I did do loads of walking. (they say "loads")

It's good to be back, though. I didn't think I would miss America so much. Don't talk about America!! I missed it, shoot. I got tired of ordering food and it not being what I thought it was. I got tired of people staring at me on the bus when I talked. I missed driving my car, (sho didn't miss putting gas in it, though)
