A Few Notes


Last couple days haven't been too active. We're beginning to get into actual classes and doing actual homework.
Two days ago, Jena and I went to Hyde Park to walk around and take a few shots for our photoblog and we saw the cutest puppies. They looked like toys.

Yesterday was another blah kind of day. It would rain and stop and rain and stop, so you couldn't exactly go to a park. And we were tired from all the walking we've been doing. We ended up hunting for a pub called the Golden Hind, didn't find it. Then again, we really didn't look that hard.

We did however feel like we were in the middle east for about 15 minutes. The whole neighborhood west of Marbel Arch was plastered in signs reading Arabic. It was a miracle to see anything in english.

I felt kind of sad going through that neighborhood because it really made me notice how the U.K. is really loosing its Britishness. In addition, it's now the new struggle of most E.U. countries that are trying to preserve who they are with these new migration schemes occurring.

And now I have a sore throat. And I leave for Paris on Thursday. Faaaaaaantastic.
