!KISMET!

so yesterday we go to bath. a place that i was told to go...by someone that means something...and we're out in the square after touring the roman baths...and this dude is playing guitar...he starts playing this stupid snow patrol song that reminds me of said person....so i'm in this town that this boy told me to go to...with this dude playing this song that reminds me of this boy...missing someone that probably doesn't miss me. [sigh]

anyway, bath was beautiful and i plan on going back soon...mucho eye-candy and a sweet rugby arena.

i miss home a little bit. classes start monday and i'm pretty stoked about getting back into a routine...also i need to find a job. but mostly i need to make my way to my bed...it's 10:30AM on sober sunday...g'nite.




in bath with schweny and the girls.

slightly hungover on the bus tour...


the roman baths!


the local entertainment...this dude juggled 3 torches while riding around on a 10 ft. unicycle...

everyday's a holiday

daaammmmnnn ya'll. sup? i'm in wales. so after a week of running around trying to get my means of communication set up i finally have the internet...not only do they drive on the wrong side of the road...these crazy british people do everything backwards which made my first couple days a little hectic. i'm already loving it though. the worst part of the trip [lugging 150+ pounds of luggage from train to train] is over and i'm settling in quite nicely. the public transportation here is pretty amazing so it's easy to get to the city centre everyday for shopping for sweet clothes and sexy euro-trash boys.
last saturday we went to the gower peninsula and wormshead. it was breath-takingly lovely. i got to chase some sheep [surprisingly agile creatures they are] and hike down to one of the most beautiful beaches i've seen. the night life here is insane...i went to the pub called no-sign bar which dylan thomas worked just a few doors down from and refers to in some of his narratives. every city here is seriously a lit. majors heaven. tomorrow i'm going to cardiff [the capital of wales] to visit the cardiff castle and check out the city. stonehenge and bathe are coming up the following weekends.

just wanted to give a quick update...there is so much to do here and i'm having so much fun. but that doesn't mean that i don't miss you all immensely.

for anyone that wishes to make my day write me [or send some cigarettes because they're expensive as shit and i've had to start rolling my own...bummer]...

love ya and miss you all!









one of the first nights...there's gonna be a lot of nights like this...but hopefully with less americans :]
















this is straight up a damn potato stand in the middle of city centre...they sell jacket potatoes like they're damn hotdogs.













castle ruins in city centre...skyscraper in the background...hmm, paradox?
















sweet fountain with a dylan thomas quote wrapped around the bottom...









city centre...this street is basically just pub after never-ending pub. probably a bad place for a boozer like me. ha.
























this is the sign at no-sign bar



















on the way to the gower.















sometimes the sun comes out.















































i think i should live there.
















these are the sheep before i terrorized them...













that's wormshead...unfortunately we didn't get to walk out there because of high tide but on the brighter side it's only 30 minutes away.













frollicking...














and then i had to fuck with them...bahaha






























cheers!
