Today was a good day.

I woke up this morning refreshed (though still wanting to sleep longer) and ready to take on the city.  After attending a couple of classes, the group got together to take a tour of London.  We got a bite to eat at a Lebanese hole-in-the-wall -- it turned out to be delicious -- and then took a two-hour bus journey around the city, seeing more sights than I can convey with words.  Luckily, I took a TON of pictures.  A lot of them need a little cropping and minor editing to be nice and pretty, so I won't post them today.  However, I will have them up as soon as possible.

After the tour, two other guys and I headed to New Oxford street; one of London's major shopping centers.  By some miracle I was able to avoid spending money on anything save for groceries.  We got back home, where I made pasta for dinner, and then started sorting through my photos.  Since I feel so bad for not being able to put them up yet, I'll leave you all with some pictures of my flat and the pub we went to last night!

 The bedroom.  

 Our living room -- or at least a corner of it.  It's hard to get an idea of the size, but it's roughly as big as my living room on Coy.  
 Our adorable European kitchen.  The fridge is actually hidden in one of the cabinets!

 The front door of 1 Byng Place (where I live). 
The College Arms  pub, where I enjoyed whiskey and comedy.  

 A row of phonebooths in front of our flats.
