My First Plant

So I have made a big step in my life, I have gotten a plant. Its a purple orchid from IKEA and it sits in my window sill. It has stayed alive for a week so far.



Besides the plant, my first week has been pretty busy- I spent the first half getting food and my apartment together. I also got to catch up with my cousin, Nate, who lives in London. My roommates' college had a lot of freshman week events, so I was able to partake in their events and hang out with their classmates! It is actually quite funny, because most of their classmates are either British or American. On the other hand, I am one of three American's in my class. My class is 60% chinese and the rest are mostly French and Greek. This week has been orientation at Imperial. It is nice to ease into school... mostly because my school is next Knightsbridge and Harrods so I can use my time off accordingly :)
