london town- getting there
the UK wasn't too excited abotu my roaming around the world.. especially without a flight home, proof of any funds, no school to go home to finish or job to go back to, no family in the UK, and the 5 € in my wallet. the guy made me out to be a complete loser. and i just smiled. he was gonna send me back to italy becauase..theyre strict? they didnt want a wandering poor illegal roaming around taking thier jobs away.. well it mustve been the luck of the rosary i inherited from the priest, because the guy said he has 5 good days a year..and it was one of those 5. i really didnt care if they sent me back. i really had no where to head anyway.. and i was already thinking i could just take the train over to france and work my way up europe that way and get to london later.. but he let me in! after 25 mins of investigation, reading my journal and asking a bazillion questions.. i learned that being a good liar is important.. although i didtn lie.. but it wouldve helped me out.. or saying im a rich spoiled brat that has unlimited money wouldve worked too.. not that i worked for a year to pay for my trip.. oops. so i learned a lot baout the boarder patrol.. and what to say now! and im here! in london.. i roamed london for a few hours to find my hostel.. many ofthem booked of course..and i took a bus for too long cuz the hostel lady told me too. o well. i found a place..and a new better one for today.. and i found the library! FREE INTERNET! yes. only for a hour at a time though.. but i felt so smart. and i have a london library card now.. off to see the london bridge and then go on a free walking tour this afternoon.. london is cool..i get what everyone means by the feeling of london.. cept ive spent most of the time here so far wandering around with my heavy house on my back.. im glad to be in an english country too.. except i think i hear less english here than everywhere else ive been.. aye yaye.. probably need to do some offical planning in the next day too.. that helps me get into countries by booking things! oo but thats against the idea of my trip now right?! im excited to meet up with christine in berline/prague before meredith comes in sept for oktoberfest and greece! and to have smiling happy faces with me! o yes. until then.. the lone solider keeps wandering.. :) im doing well!! yay!
