My host family's last name is Cartlidge, and I'm kind of wondering why Paul McCartney decided to use a fake name when he decided to host Cori and I. I'll have to ask him when I get there. And I'll tell him hi from all y'all.

So, this pre-trip seminar thing isn't so bad in and of itself; it's just making us all more and more antsy to GET FREAKIN GOING...which makes it all seem much more long and boring than it actually is. The discussions we're having make me laugh, because we all sit and argue about things that we don't really have a clue about (myself included)...it makes me wonder what the profs actually think of us. Oh well, at least they feed us meals.

I got to see Jenna today...we ate Chinese, which was pretty dang awesome. It was weird that the last time I was there was less than a week ago, but it seems like ages. Oh my Ruthie, where have you gone? Off to distant lands...of places that are open past 5...and on Sundays, those dang pagans.

Although, I made a rather surprising discover yesterday that, lo and behold, Alco is OPEN ON SUNDAYS. I'm pretty sure only the Orange Citians without religion go shopping on Sundays, which makes me wonder how long Alco will stay open. At least on Sundays. Which is a shame, because they have sparkly shoes.

In other news, the theater department actually has a coffee maker, and cooshy chairs with REAL LIVE DESKS that have room to put your coffee on. This makes me want to change my major a little, given my rich history of knocking over my coffee during music history because of its lack of desk space.

I AM GOING TO THE ABBEY ROAD.
