brilliant, bollocks, knackered, chav, bog, quid.

I love the fact that I'm fluent in English (American i guess) and I've learned so many new words here. Ok, so most of them are slang, but still, its hilarious having a conversation with someone who's English and not understanding half of what their saying.  I always ask people to repeat stuff, but at time some people have had to ask ME to repeat stuff as well, so you know, i say tomato you say tomato. Loving the new words thrown at me, disliking the difference's in the spelling. Behavour, theatre, favourite, yoghurt= better set my spell check to English (United Kingdom).

in case you had no idea where that saying comes from :P 


I'm in love with London's architecture. Its a huge city, but it doesn't feel as intimidating as new york ( and although its mostly always gray, you can see the sky here!) Here you can see any style of building you want. Theres a few things from before the great fire, buildings from the late 17 century, or 18th or 19th or the new sky liners. It's awesome and I'm as in love with this city as I was when i first visited it when I was 17 (maybe so even more now). I wish I had more time to explore, I know after i finish this year, I'll travel and really take it all in. 

Here is a picture of how i spent my week:



This weekend was a nice relaxing one- spent most of it reading- but i did get to go to a vintage thrift shop, which was selling everything for  ₤1! Sara and I, took a bus at around 10am, to east London where this place was at. Upon arriving we were greeted by 500 people, like actually, 500 people. Long story short, when they started letting people in, it was like a stampede of animals. It was a very interesting experience. The racks were full of all these crazy cool boho vintage clothes. I bought purple leather pants! and a goofy shirt! so cheap, so fun.

the end.
