Jerry Springer in London
I'm sitting here on this fine late summer's day in my London flat, watching Jerry Springer on the telly visiting a 900 lb woman. My Irish Lit class just ended 2 hours ago, and since then I have taken a shower, sent some e-mails, and waited for the laundry machine to get free. I have been meaning to do my laundry for the past few days, but it is always occupied! So I have made sure that I will not do anything until I get a load of laundry done.
The flat went to this Australian club called Walkabout last night, where admission was free to all students. We all being students eagerly took advantage of this rare opportunity to go somewhere for free after 11 pm, and had a blast; lots of dancing to American music, and plenty of London and Australian cheer to go around for all.
Before we headed out for the evening, Rocky, Gak, Leo and I walked to Hyde Park to play some frisbee. It was a lotta fun, but I grew bored of throwing around a frisbee after around an hour and decided to go for a little walk on my own. Hyde Park is truly a sight to see -- in the middle of one of the biggest and busiest cities in the world, people find a time and place to lay out a blanket under a tree and just relax. Those scenes of people relaxing on a big grass field kinda reminded me of boy's campus at camp on a Shabbas afternoon. This Shabbas, I plan on bringing a blanket and a book out to the park with me to rekindle those memories. I also have lots of reading to do for class, so spending the day reading should do me good.
I unfortunately cannot go to Brussels tonight, for I have the Parliament tour scheduled for tomorrow at 3, so I wouldn't get in until the very late hours of tomorrow night and wouldn't be able to spend much time there. I'll go later on.
Time to check if the laundry machine's open. Cheers!
