So this past week has been quite hectic ..but fun.
Last week I went to the Sir John Soanes Museum with my art class. It was really neat and unlike any other museum i have seen. It is in his old house, which is an amazing house because he was an architect. Every space on the walls is covered with a piece of is art...and the walls open up to more walls behind them with more art. The halls were so narrow and windy we weren't even allowed to carry our purses around with us. In graphics we spent the class watching 4 weddings and a funeral...interesting. It now gets pitch black here around 330 pm. cool. not.
Then the weekend came..the girls came..and the frat party began. 11 girls 1 apartment. Thursday night we took them to our pub down the street for fish and chips and cider..they loved it. Then we went to our favorite bar, O'Neils and had a fab night. Friday we woke up, went for a traditional english bfast then out to see the sites in the rain. Showed them big ben and that area then hit up Harrods. It was awesome to see Harrods all lit up and decorated for xmas. I loved it. You can seriously get lost in that place.
Saturday we woke up and went to Kings Cross Station to see platform 9 3/4 (Harry Potter) ... it really wasn't that cool...not even a plaque there saying blahblahblah. Owell. We then navigated our way by bus because the tube is under construction, to Abbey Road. Took the crosswalk picture of course. Then headed to oxford street for a day of shoppin with the girls...spent hours in topshop...but now worries i didnt buy a single thing!!! That night I had my first Indian food experience... lets just say it will probably be my last as well. After we went to an amazing club Koko and had the best night ever.
The girls left at the crack of dawn this morn :( but it was a great (crowded and hectic) weekend. Today I went to school to study for the day... for the amount of money i pay to go here you would assume i would have no problem getting internet service there..yaaa. Gotta send that e-mail complaint. Oh and the construction outside our building right now cut out our hot water. fun. So for now i'm gonna go catch up on some shows cause im so far behind (greys has been amazing)....gotta stay up late tonight because the sorority is re-slating positions so we have to wait up to see if we get called for one..and the time difference makes that interesting. bleh o well .
we are thinkin of maybe doing a family game night... bananagrams?!?! yes pleaseee
