"If you're brave enough to say goodbye, life will reward you with a new hello."

 Hiya,

It’s the final week of London- I can’t believe that it’s gone by so fast! I’ve really enjoyed my time here at UCL. Studying abroad is definitely one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. Academically, the lectures have been pretty great overall and I find that they have really made me enjoy learning all over again. This probably sounds weird, especially to some of you seniors who are suffering senioritis and working on college apps… :P Congrats btw, to all of you who got into Caltech early action! :D I hope you’ll come to prefrosh weekend next year to see what Caltech has to offer and perhaps I’ll get to meet you in person! Feel free to ask me any questions : ) It’s been amazing being able to explore London and places inside as well as outside of the UK…by the end of my time here, I’ll have explored cities in ten different countries! As I’m writing this, I’ll be heading off to my last destination tomorrow before flying back to the States- Madrid! Si,  I’ll be heading to Spain with Kalpana, Cici, and Kyle. Although I’m excited to see another city, I’m definitely going to miss London, especially all the people and friends I’ve met here. Today has been a little hectic, packing and trying to meet up with friends to say goodbyes. Pan hosted a Thai food night-it was delicious! It was fun cooking with people one last time. I'm grateful that many of them came by to hang out, despite still having finals to study for and essays to finish. It’s been an amazing journey these past three months and I’m glad I’ve been able to share it with you. Thanks for reading my blog and who knows, I might be back next term to tell you about second term as a third year-I mean junior- at Caltech : )

Good luck on finals and/or college applications!

Happy Holidays : )
