salmon and tobacco

Last week was fantasic!! we went to Platform 9 3/4 (big fun) Also, we visited Abbey Road!!! It was wonderful. we all dressed up and took about 100 shots till it was perfect.



We also stopped by the American sports bar to catch the sad Bosox game.

This week we saw two plays; An Inspector Calls and Miss Julie. Strangely both plays are about suicide....oh the depressing brits. However the plays were really different than US plays so it was interesting.

Along with my dislike for how unorganized the UK is....the tube caught on fire Thursday in the most popular platform, King's Cross. Well of course this meant that the world was over and the platform was pure chaos so I opted to just take the bus...

Also Thursday and Friday our school went on strike! yay unions! well, we were told there was going to be crazy picketing and to not show up to school because if we did we would get stuff thrown at us (classy)....clearly i was gonna head to school to get in on the action. well when i got to school...no riots, no pickets, no fun......the brits can't even do a strike right!!!! Well anyways I went to class but my teacher didn't show up woohoo!

This weekend we discovered the most amazing store called Primark. Forever 21 on crack. It was the most amazing this ever. Discounts, cute clothes, sequins!! Lisa and i seriously spent 3+ hours in there.

Oh yea also this weekend we were a little 'too" loud and there were many noise complaints about our room. So as a punishment administration locked up our windows. Even better, my room smells like tobacco and salmon. Now I'm trapt in a salmony tabacco filled sweatshop staring out of a window that once was opened and once allowed a nice soft breeze that came off of the Dirrrrrrrrty Thames river. I swear i'll never be loud again, pause not.

Cheers!
