A review of reading week

This week I was going to be SO FREE, I was going to have SO MUCH time, I was going to get SO MUCH done... Yeahhhhh no.

On the upside, I did do the bare minimum... The essay that is due on Monday. The other one that I wanted to get done this week is only about 1/4 done. Hmmmm...

Well, yesterday we also did our communication skills mini skit for the tutorial on Monday. That was a short and sweet 40 minute meeting. I had to go into the city for uni, so I figured I'd fit a few other things in as well.

Firstly, I went to hand in my theology essay. If it's even a second late at 4pm on Monday, it gets a zero, so I wanted to be safe and hand it in on Friday. The woman at the desk looked very surprised that I was handing it in early. After the meeting at Waterloo I walked to Strand to hand it in.

The view of London as we walked across the road was misty. The weather hasn't been rainy or too windy, it's just been glum and misty. This was taken at 12 noon.

Somerset House is on the way to the Strand Campus. The other day when I walked past, the Christmas tree in the courtyard caught my attention, so today I brought my camera and took a picture of it.

Behind the Christmas tree they are installing an ice skating rink.

I also needed to go to the post office, but Susan went for me because we were going to get lunch at Milkbar afterwards, and otherwise she was going to have to tag along with me to hand in my essay AND go to the post office.

While waiting for Susan on the corner of the Strand and Surrey St, I took a picture of the leaves which have been flattened by cars and pasted onto the road. It looks very artistic.

Then it was the 15 minute walk to Milkbar! And you guys know about that already. Except the part where we got asked by a tourist where Chinatown was :|

And the part where we got distracted by Covent Garden to look at the baubles during the day.

So the time it took us to get to Milkbar wasn't actually 15 minutes.
There was a string quartet playing Christmas songs. Heavenly sounds :)

The rest of reading week was quite underwhelming, except for the trip to Primrose Bakery.

The internet at halls has been TERRIBLE all week.
And I miss all the people who have gone home.
