London seems to always be busy no matter what day it is. On weekdays, there are business people with briefcases running by you to get their train and students who are late for class. On weekends, the tourists come and you see a lot of families and the riverbanks are insanely crowded and there are street performers all over the place. I feel like an outsider during the week but on the weekend I feel like a local. Especially when I am showing my friends around.

Yesterday we walked over to westminster to see big ben and all that, then over to trafalgar square. They are having this awesome exhibit of lomography photos there, where it's just a maze of walls covered in thousands of pictures. I could have stood there all day if Charlene had let me. I was like a kid in a candy shop, all, "look at this one! and this one! ooooh look! that one's cool. did you see this one?" Once we left there we stopped by Topshop and got really really sad that we couldn't afford ANYTHING. Then we had fish and chips and hung out in my apartment for a while.

Today we went over to covent garden which seems to be the place to go on Sundays. There were knife jugglers and limboers and musicians everywhere, and lots of shopping and people. We also went and looked around in St. Paul's church, which is where the opening scene from pygmalion (my fair lady) takes place! cool.

Charlene and Andy just left to make their way to stanstead airport and I think I am going to take a nap.
