Ive always wanted to visit the UK b/c most of my family lived and is from there
How to visit the UK
How I did it: I lived and worked in the UK for 8 months. It was a really great experience and I learned a lot of things by doing it. I've seen things I'll probably never see again!!
People doing this are also doing these things:

My family descends from all these places. I’ve wanted to visit for as long as I can remember.
I can’t wait until summer 2010. I will be going to England! I hope I meet some interesting people. I once met a dude with an English accent and I was like, “Whoa! This is what it’s like to talk to someone with an accent! Awesome!” It was also really weird. I dunno. It’s hard to explain….
Paper Airplane Good lord, I love Ed Norton.
Two weeks in London, Dublin and Manchester…. Exhilarating, crazy, intimidating, drunken, inspiring, and a flat-out blast.
I did things I never thought I’d do… sang bad karaoke in a pub… navigated the underground with increasing ease… walked across Abbey Road…I figured out what I was really made of…
I saw a rainbow on the Irish Sea… drank with Spaniards and Australians… fell in love with a new band… wore a pashmina and blended in with the locals… got trapped in a tube door (and have the bruise as a battle scar)...
I cannot wait to go back.
I was recently reading one of my older diaries. It said something like, “Mom said we will go to the UK in 2009.” I was like, WTF? I told her earlier today. She said that this year has been a waste. It’s been really chaotic. I think 2008 has been the worst year of my life so far. Wait!! I think that’s right. I dunno. I can’t think of any other year where I have felt so depressed.
Paper Airplane Good lord, I love Ed Norton.
It’s completely official.
London, Dublin and Manchester, over the course of two weeks.
I cannot effing wait.
Only 23 days left!!
Mom is taking me to the UK in 2010. I will be 15. My sister will be 12. Hopefully she will be more mature. She is such a baby. So immature right now. I don’t know of a lot of places in the UK. Only London, and Liverpool. Well, there is Wales, too. Doubt we will be going there, though. Sigh. I am not sure what’s going to happen. I have never visited another country before. The first and last time I rode a plane I was 10. We were going to Florida. Don’t remember most of it. And we weren’t going over the ocean either. And it’s probably going to take a lot longer. Whatever. I just hope we will have fun. I really hope I will have the time of my life while I am there. :)
