birthday update

It has been getting much colder here in the past few days. The other night is was about 3 degrees celcius (mid 30s in farenheit). It wouldn't be so bad if London wasn't such a windy city! It's so different here. I mean this is like the middle of winter for Texas and it is only the beginning of October! My roommates and I are still waiting for Vandon House to turn on the heat. Becuase if it is on, then they must have forgotten about our room. The three of us all wear sweatshirts and sweatpants in our room and stay in our beds as long as possible in the mornings so we dont freeze! I think it is just one of the cultural differences. I have been told that England is known for cold classrooms and cold buildings in the winter. So I guess I will just have to suck it up and get used to it while I am here!
Since I didn't bring my camera with me on my birthday, here are a few of the photos from the night that I have gotten via facebook.

Sweet Melissa (aka Peaches) buying my first drink! The queue(line) at the Mexican restaurant was really long so we went to the pub All Bar One (really popular bar in England) across the street while waiting for our table.
Only a few of us at Wahaca for dinner. They were able to put all 10 of us at one table but I'm not sure if we ever got a picture of everyone. Still waiting for that one!
Lauren, Melissa and I dancing the night away at the club Tiger Tiger
Me and the girls that went out after dinner (minus Audrey the picture taker)
My mom has put in a request for more pictures, so I will try to post more from now on!
