Wow...everyday London just keeps getting better. Today, I found my internship again (all by myself) and had my first meeting with my supervisor. I think I'm really going to love it there. After my meeting came the shopping! We found a great store called Primark. They have a ton of clothes, hand bags and shoes for super cheap. It would be so easy to spend an entire day inside so I'll have to try and control myself. After shopping I had my first pasty. A pasty is a pastry shell filled with pretty much anything you can think of. My first pasty was filled with potato, mushroom and chicken and it was delicious! After pasty's came Wicked! It was absolutely amazing! The show flew by and I kept wishing that it would never end. After seeing one show, I think I'm going to have to start hitting up a few more.
I also decided today that I am becoming a real Londoner. I'm becoming more and more confident on the tube and can pretty much get anywhere I need to go. I'm also getting much better at crossing the street and now I only get honked at on rare occasions. Adjusting to the traffic coming at you from the other directions is taking a lot of getting used to. I'm also getting better at fighting through the crowds. In America, I really cherished my personal space, but when I'm getting on a tube filled with people, I've had to learn to be a little uncomfortable. I think I have also found my weakness in London...Maltesers. They are a honey comb dipped in chocolate and they are so good! I'm definitely going to have to bring a stash of them home in a few months because I don't think I can part with them just yet. Cheers!
