It has been an exhausting week and unless you want to hear about a bunch of school stuff, I won't bore you with details... It's almost Friday and next week is a new week (one with a little better schedule, too) - Yea!
Today, after work, I went to BlueWater (a mall that everyone has been talking about). I figured since everyone was making such a hype about it (and my schedule tomorrow is an easy one) I would go check it out. I rode the bus (that was a first for me - by myself) and when it made its last turn - I felt like I was heading into Mecca!! It really is something special! It is huge and all of the stores are like boutiques. I didn't really buy anything - there's nothing that I need right now, so I just wandered around and looked at all of the pretty things.
Sunday I am heading into London to meet others who are in England through the same company. We are meeting for lunch and drinks. Hopefully I'll meet some cool people who are interested in doing some UK traveling while they are here.
I just thought I'd leave you with some funny little differences I've notice in the last two weeks:
- There are no Door Knobs on front doors here.
- Bathroom lights dangle from the ceiling and you have to pull them like a ceiling fan (but only once) to turn them on.
- Everything is smaller! Even the bottles of soda, shampoo, etc.
- Coke does not taste as good (it tastes flat).
- Kids call erasers "rubbers."
- Paper is a completely different size!
- My keys at school look like old-timey keys!!
