No Labor Day, but there is a Labour Party...

So that means no barbecues for me this week. BUT I did do a whole bunch of British-y things on Labor Day like.....


Paddington Station....no bears

The stereotypical Big Ben photo

Westminster Abbey







So THEN I went to the premier of Rock n Rolla, a new Guy Richie movie. My camera decided to run out of batteries right around here, which resulted in hilarious photos....


Gerard Butler when asked to say "THIS IS SPARTAAA!!!!!"


The most scandalous dress I've ever seen





Yup, saw Madonna and Guy Richie on my second day in London. Typical.









London's pretty sweet (other than the fact that I can barely get an internet connection). They're very accommodating for us foreigners and their Coke tastes better than US style.

#1 reason I'm still alive.

I started one of my classes today. It's so weird to be back in school again, especially here. It's so hard to sit in class when you've been out all night when you're in London.

My semester is split into two parts: 5 weeks of 2 classes and 8 weeks of an internship while I take one class. I was placed in an agency called CDP London, a 30-person agency ranked in the top 20 British advertising agencies and one of the top 10 British advertising agencies in terms of creative. Today was my first day of British marketing class (wooooooo.) and tomorrow I have a British Political Science class. Clearly these classes are just interferences, but I'm dealing so far.
