I'm not sure if I'm doing this right!!

Hi there, hopefully this works....

So guys, the end of my program has become a COMPLETE disaster!!!! We have this huge group project that is worth our WHOLE mark, and we are having a ridiculous amount of issues. Girls crying, yelling, sending nasty email, not taking accountability for their actions, etc.. So my level of stress right now is wicked high!! UGH!!

I think that you're absolutely right, Lauren, that we should book our rooms by Tuesday, but not because we're worried that they're filling up... we're doing it because we are smart, organized, excited individuals! And we can't wait to book it!! Woot woot!!

I would love to hear Natalie's opinion on the plan one or two. I already said on "the book" that my vote is to meet you in London. I just want to share as many experiences with you guys as possible, and I think it would be a great opportunity for Natalie and I to see London!!! I don't have my heart set either way, but that's the plan I'm leaning toward.

I officially have my Eurail pass!! I won a pair of Ray-ban Wayfarer sunglasses on eBay (You know the one's... Bob Dylan, Roy Orbison, Elvis Costello... yes!) and they are hopefully on their way, so I'm good to go!!

So I don't have a problem booking the days for the hostel... Is there one in particular, or do I just have to do some research? How many people do I have to book for? and for how many days? and when will we get there if Natalie and I meet you in London?

OH MY GOODNESS!! I'm so excited, I can barely stand it!! Don't forget that I'm going to be pretty incognito after May 3rd, because I'll be in Florida!! But we'll probably have these details figured out way before then...

And I didn't know that you had to book hostels... is that just in popular areas? Because my friend in Belgium said that the cheapest hostels were the ones you find by asking around (the one's not typically listed in the traveler guides...) Anyway, that's just a thought.

Okay, I love you all and will talk to you soon!!

hmmm, i know that hostel beds DO fill up, so I think it's be good to have beds booked thru June. that buys us some time and maybe we'll figure out some tricks to save money while we're there.

I joined couchsurfing!! I am very excited for that, too!

I am highly in favor of ya'll meeting me/shrn/kels in london. we can all stay at the Y for a few days (may21st-23rd, say), then head over to Amsterdam. If we go there direct, PEARL wants to come! She is a wonderful and rad friend and she is gunna show us around her native LONDON! yaaay! So yes, lets book those two cities. I also wanna hear nat's vote first...I dont think shes checked out the blog. she might be outta town though. I think we need to shop for hostels, so everyone should do that, I guess. look around, see if there are price differences or REVIEWS!

I'm very excited!!
