I can't wait for my trip to the U.K. This will be my second time over there, and I totally fell in love with the country the first time I was there. My relatives took me all over, and I spent three days in London by myself. It was one of the best experiences of my life. London was an amazing city, although I liked Manchester the best because a lot of my favorite bands are from there and I recognized a lot of the street names from song lyrics. Speaking of which, I have to figure out how to get event tickets before I go over there because there are a few bands I really want to check out while I'm there. Last time I went, I got to see England, Scotland and Wales but we didn't have enough time to go to Ireland so I'm definitely planning part of my trip to be there this time. My boyfriend is coming with me this time, and his family comes from Ireland so he's really excited. Hopefully we'll be able to go to Belfast, I've heard that the violence down there has really cooled down in the last couple of years. I've heard that it's a beautiful city and it would be a shame to miss it.
