I cannot believe that I have already been here for an entire month. This weekend was my first weekend not traveling and I had a blast and took it easy. It is also the first weekend where I have had a lot of work to do in terms of papers and coursework. I have econ coursework due Tuesday, a paper due Wednesday, and an internet project(easy as pie) due Friday.
This week I went to see avenue Q in the theatre district and got some authentic chinese food in Chinatown after. Avenue Q was hilarious and I loved it! The next night was my friend Sam's 21st o we went to a cute Italian place near us that had the best garlic bread and bruschetta. Afterwards, we went out for the typical celebrations.
Thursday night we went to The Comedy Store for a night of stand up comedy. It is where Robin Williams started his career. It was really funny and pretty inexpensive. I had a great time!
On Friday, I did homework at Starbucks and then went shopping in Oxford Circus, which was CRAZY! It was so crowded and there are a lot of stores there but I only ended up buying a few headbands at HM.
Saturday was a really big day for Rugby matches and brits flooded the streets dressed up as all sorts of crazy things. Some people were dressed up as Kiwis (For NZ) others as smurfs (face paint and all) and bumble bees, nerds, doctors, sheep, basically everything.
Today, I am finishing up my paper and coursework. I am already half way done with the paper and 2/5 through the coursework. Unlike my older brothers, I do not like to have to work on assignments the night before they are due. We will see how that works out here. Luckily I am done with class at 1 tomorrow so I will have plenty of time to finish it.
Love and miss you all!
