Amazing Things and Not-So-Amazing Things

Here's what I did today:


Rode the London Underground. So much fun!


St. Paul's Cathedral. OMG Awesome architecture and details.


FREAKING BIG BEN! How cool is that??


Westminster Abbey. That's me and Cynthia, one of my flatmates, down there in the bottom leftish.


Trafalgar Square.


The London Eye and the River Thames. I wanted to ride in the London Eye, but no one else wanted to and I didn't want to go all by myself. Plus it was pretty darn expensive.


SAW FREAKING SIRIUS BLACK AND COMMISSIONER GORDON LIVE IN PERSON!!!! HOLY CRAP! WHY SO SIRIUS???? (that's Gary Oldman on the left, who portrays both of those characters, in case you didn't know.) He was at the premiere of his new movie "Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy."

All in all, no big deal. 

Haha! Honestly, who am I kidding? London is sooooooooooooooo awesome! I love it here! There are so many awesome things to do and see! I'm registering for classes on Thursday and start my internship next week and I can seriously barely wait. I feel like there are five billion crazy awesome cool amazing super great things to do here and I'm going to do them ALL!

However, there are a few things over here that I'm not so keen on.

1) Everyone drinks and smokes over here. And I'm not a drinker or barhopper. Like, at all. I feel like, after a long day of walking places, seeing things, learning stuff and doing activities, I just want to chill, relax, maybe read something or write something. And I don't think anyone in my flat will understand that. They're all like, "OMG Let's go out tonight! Even though we have to get up early tomorrow!" And I'm all like, "Um... I think I'm gonna pass." And then they're gonna be like, "OMG You're such a loser." And I'm gonna be like, "Aw... okay. :(" *le sigh* I dunno what to do.

2) The dijon mustard seriously tastes like nail polish. Like, it tastes so nasty, I'm pretty sure it's not safe for human consumption. D:< Blargh!
