Semester Break is almost here and thank goodness

It's only Tuesday and I've never looked forward to the end of the week more than right now.
On Friday morning at 3:30 am, Anavi and I will be leaving our apartment to catch our flight to England! We fly into London Stansted and will spend the day in Essex. The next day we will take a bus to Oxford and spend 3 days there. On the third day we will head to Bath and stay there for 2 days. We will head to Brighton on our second day in Bath. After 4 days in Brighton, we will end our trip with 3 days in London. I've been planning this trip since September and can't believe that I leave in 3 days.
This will be my second time in England but first time without family. My grandparents took me to England when I was 10. I am very excited to experience England now that I am almost 19 and traveling without family. I loved it before and assume I will come to love it even more.
The two things I'm most excited about may seem kind of trivial.
The first thing is that it will be a relief to be in an English speaking country. I love living in a Spanish speaking country and hearing the language everyday, though I do not understand all of it. But being able to ask for directions and understand the whole response will be a relief.
The second thing is that I will be going to Warner Brothers Studio in London for a tour of the Harry Potter Studio. I am so excited!!!! This is going to be the best part of my whole trip. Yes living in Spain is great but Harry Potter trumps everything. Always. I admit to being obsessed with Harry Potter and I am totally fine with it.
Today was such a good day. All of my classes were great. I have a debate on Thursday in Argumentation and I am not nervous. My team knows our points and we are ready. International Relations was fun and more interesting than usual today. After my classes I went shopping with Daniel and Brett. Each of us had a few things we wanted/needed to get and we all found them. We had a great time together.
On Thursday, Daniel and Brett are going to have dinner with Anavi, Sophia, and I. Krista and Jennifer would join us but they leave Thursday for their trip to England. Daniel and I are going to cook dinner for everyone. I'm going to teach Daniel some new skills in the kitchen. I haven't decided exactly what we will be cooking but we will be cooking some type of fish with a few side dishes.
