Home ready, long travel- Yoda

Tomorrow we leave! I am excited because two weeks has been so long. I miss my family so much, and I can not wait to eat black people food. This trip was a lovely experience. Although I wish we got more time to explore the city on our own, I appreciate all the educational opportunities…

I am Lon-DONE!

I have officially started my countdown to go home! I am so excited to be leaving in 2 days. I look forward to going home to my family, Bre’s food, and my best friend. Usually me and best friend travel together, but not this time. We complete each other so this trip would have been…

This Trip is Dragon

Today I learned how to breathe fire! If I would have known I am part dragon, I would have been using my fire power to warm things up in my hotel room since there is no microwave. I felt like Elizabeth, the dragon off of Shrek. All I did was eat the spicy lamb and…

Camouflage in the Underground Mine

Today we visited the Black Country Living Museum. It was dark inside of the mine, I fully disappered, all you could see is teeth and eyes. Blending in with the dark was not fun, I do that at home all the time when I turn the lights out lol. Just joking but it was really…

The ZZZ’s That I Did Not Get, but Ashley Did

Today Ashley got a couple extra zzz’s in, I wish I was her. I did not wake up again this morning, so I had to rush and get myself downstairs before I got left too. I mean it is hard waking up super early every day when you had been out all day the day…

Keeping Up With The Flash!

Today I tried to race the Flash, and I lost. He even took it easy on me and speed walked instead of running, but I just could not keep up lol. Today I walked at 6 miles per hour, and Flash went 100 miles per hour. I am a sore loser sometimes but he’s a…

On Wednesdays, We Don’t Wear Pink

On Wednesdays, we walk, but if this was mean girls, we would wear pink. Today I took fifteen thousand steps, but it feels like a million. My legs are starting to burn, my feet are sore, and I am cramping! Although I would love to live freely like mean girls, we had a very long…

Pitt Meets BCU!

Waking up this morning, I did not! I set my alarms and everything and some way somehow none of them went off. So I woke up to a call asking where I was lol. I had to rush and get myself together so I could make it to BCU. I did not know a phone…

Watching the Sunrise While it Sets at Home

I mostly hear a lot of individuals speak about how they assume the United Kingdom will be full of white people. That is not the case though, because the UK is very diverse. The UK has many different ethnicities and cultures that fulfill its community. Many people in the UK speak multiple languages and are…

First Day in Birmingham, UK

With an 8-hour flight, we have finally arrived at the United Kingdom! There are so many things that I could write about already, but I will focus on a few things for now. You can recognize the difference between the UK and US in so many ways. Unlike the US, the UK keeps defibrators accessible…
