I woke up early today to try and figure out how to get to school. And how to get a rail card, but that's a whole other story, that's really pointless. Anyways. I topped up my oyster card. (Meaning I put money on my card to ride the subway train) Hopped on a double decked bus to get to the tube stop. Just a side note, construction workers whistle at you here too. One house mate suggested I get off on a particular stop rather than changing lines for just one stop. Needless to say my sense of direction failed me, but my memory didn't. I ended up at Piccadilly since I've been there before. Definitely not near my school, but none the less familiar. I finally figured it out. I went in asked if there was a dress code, if I need anything and left, not too exciting. But I did snap a picture while pretending to text. I hardly wanted to seem like the lame tourist that I am.
I rode the tube back to Brixton and met up with my house mates. We went to a beer garden and watched the football game
. It was a beautiful day, I think I may have gotten a little tan on my non fully tattooed arm. Overall a really nice day. I'm really enjoying it here. And I can't wait for my actual course to start so I can get a real concept of life in London. Right now it's very holiday-esque. Not that I'm complaining, its just a new concept to me. I like the freedom, but I want to learn what I came here for.
