So it has been a crazy, crazy three days of my life. First my visa didn't arrive until I was about to leave (nearly gave me a heart attack), then I get to the airport and I'm told i can't leave cause i need a transit visa for Amsterdam (broke my heart), then Mr Yang comes to my rescue and books me on a direct flight for the next day (my hero), so i spend the night at the airport hotel. Finally get on a  flight the next day, over 13 hours of flying, an hour to get through customs, two and a half hour coach ride to Cambridge old town, a brief scary taxi ride and finally Clare college Cambridge. My feet, are still swollen, I've got serious jet lag, my entire body hurts, everywhere but .......I am Happy. I am so happy and so grateful for this opportunity that i don't even know how to express it. Yes it was a little rough getting here but i was raised to always find opportunity in adversity and that Everything Happens for A Reason. Even though i don't know the reason yet, i do know that this is an amazing opportunity and i intend to make the best of it and be an even better person than I was bfore coming here.
