Tuesday and Wednesday

On Tuesday a bunch of us went to our Anglo-American meeting, the company that set up our internships. We got all kinds of info about London and such and then we all split to grab some food. We finally found some things to eat and then split up because a bunch of people needed phones, but me, Michelle, and Amanda split off and explored a while. We went to the Trocadero and played some arcade games and rode the bumper cars. That was sweet. Later, we met up with Amanda's boyfriend Mark and went to Pizza Express. Just walking around was awesome. I didn't have my camera with me and I can't even remember exactly what all we saw, but it was awesome.




On Wednesday, I didn't have to work yet, but everyone else went to their first day. I just took the train down to where my internship will be and found the office and the club the company owns. When I checked the schedule, I notice that a band I know from Berklee called the Young Republic was playing there the next night. They are so good. Check them out. The area I am working is super nice. It's on Oxford Street, right at the Tottenham Court Road Station. This is the view out the station:





I went down the street and walked through Soho Square, which is a little park that was PACKED with people having lunch. I found an amazing Chinese / Thai vegan buffet place and stuffed myself full for 5 pounds. Then I had to go to the BUNAC orientation that is apparently required by law so they can stamp my card and allow me to move in and out of the country. It was cool in that we found out about a trip to Bath and Stonehenge for 22 pounds total, which is awesome. A lot of us signed up for that and are going on the 14th. We headed back after that and had a lot of good times at home. This was on the way from BUNAC to the tube:





Thursday was a big day, but I can't locate the cable for my camera. Once I do, I'll upload the pictures and post a few here.
