Well, like usual, I’ve been failing at this… So, I’ll run through it daily… This is going to be another novel. I’m 99% sure that no one takes the time to read these… especially since they’re way too long… Oh well.
Monday-This was the first day back from Paris… I was exhausted and so was everyone. The majority of us were decently crabby, or at least, Hannah and I were. Well, anyways, the day started off with international marketing… yay… That class needs to die. We went to Asda and the mall thing by the Olympic Park. I’ve never wanted to kill someone more in my life. Our teacher seriously gave us a tour of Asda, which is basically a Walmart. I felt so dumb, and pretty much everyone else felt the same way. So, that was thrilling. It probably doesn’t help that I was super crabby… but yea. Um, after class, a bunch of us sat in the food court and got lunch together… yay fun. Then, Hannah and I did some shopping at the Olympic store there. We then decided that we couldn’t waste the day and needed to go down by the South Bank and find something down there to do… We, for some dumb reason, decided that going to the Tate Modern would be a good idea. We both wanted to go at some point, and I guess we figured it would be ideal to go while we’re tired and crabby… The second we got in, we both remembered how much we hate modern art. There was literally a white octagon painted on the wall. Oh, and two chairs stacked on top of each other with balls hanging down from there. This is serious. After that, we went to Abbey Road! Then, we realized how tired and cranky we were and headed home… another exciting night. Seriously, I’ll be surprised if anyone even read the entire thing on just Monday…
Tuesday-Nothing too exciting for Tuesday. Worked at SALT-made a flier/poster thing, found out we got a new client!, research on competition in the area, Tweeted at a couple local companies, passed out fliers with her little kiddies. Another exciting day as a marketing intern. Aw, okay. This was precious. So, my boss has 5-year-old twins-a boy and a girl. I was handing out with fliers with the boy at first, but then the girl asked if she could be with me instead! It was precious..BUT then the boy goes “oh, well she is quite nice!” in his adorable little British accent. It was the cutest thing in the whole world. They are frieken precious. Ugh, I’m going to miss my internship a lot actually! Um, but after that, I just worked on a powerpoint for my internship class…WOO.
Wednesday-International marketing in the morning, kill me. Then, Sara, Hannah, and I went to tour the Globe Theater… It was 11 pounds… and it was seriously 15 minutes… definitely not worth the 11 pounds, but I am glad that I got to go! Uh, then Sara and I decided to lie down in Kensington Park thang for a little bit. Fell asleep for a bit… It was so nice and warm out! Who knew there was a possibility of warmth and sunlight here? not me. Um, then back to CAPA for the internship class… I had my speech. That was thrilling. Apparently, my internship is really…unique… and I suppose it’s a little funny to people? Oh, well. Oh, then I went to Nando’s? with Nyasha and Alissa… Not that exciting… I actually didn’t really like it, but at least I tried it? Oh, later in the night, Sara, Katelyn, Ashley and I basically talked about our first impressions of each other, how we thought the others would be, and the fact that we were scared of Sara since she originally had her own room. It was an adorable bonding experience. Okay, that’s about it…
Thursday-SALT to start the day, of course. I handed out fliers before going into work. We got a phone call for another new client! Yay! It’s just nice to finally see some sort of payoff for the work I’ve been doing. :) Then, Jackie (my supervisor) took me to the Long Walk (the road that leads up to Windsor Castle), and we go to see the Queen drive past! That was so exciting. She was literally five feet from me…she was in a car, but she was still five feet from me! I chatted with Jackie’s husband about how people feel about the Queen, and that was interesting. He said a lot of people don’t like her because she doesn’t do anything, doesn’t pay taxes, and blablabla. However, he thinks it’s worth it to still have the royal family because they bring so much revenue into the country from tourism that even over compensates for the fact that they don’t contribute anything. I’d never heard that opinion before.. So, that was interesting. Then, a bunch of us went to North Star for a little bit… We eventually headed to Wetherspoon’s? Everything was pretty cheap….and it was nice to sit and hang out with a bunch of people from Newman. I met some British guy who said he loved watching Kenan and Kel and Sabrina the Teenage Witch growing up… that was interesting… Um, then that’s about it for the night.
Oh, Friday-This was an experience. Well, I went to Camden for a bit to do some shopping…eventually. Then, I met Hannah at King’s Cross station so we could do the whole platform 9 and 3/4 thang. Super exciting. Eventually got ready to go to Whitechina? Chinawhite? I don’t know. All I do know is that we were too big of a group and couldn’t get in. Then, we went to Movida? or whatever it was called. Four of the girls couldn’t get in because we weren’t wearing heels. -_- I was clearly in that group. We all know I don’t do heels. So, everyone who could get in, went in, and the other four of us (plus Emily) went somewhere else. Well, Movida was a 20 pound cover charge and drinks were over 10 pounds each (and not that fun from what I hear)… And the other place we went to was free to get into and drinks were about 5 pounds. So, in the end, I think I was a lot better off at the other place than that dumb exclusive club. The night was sort of irritating, but it happens. So, I don’t really care. It didn’t end up being completely horrible. Oh, then I went home and skyped my mom. She decided to tell me that Wiggles isn’t eating like at all… and he’s being weird… So, then I just cried forever. So, uh, that was a fun Friday night. D: Um, that’s about it I think… Sort of a bad note to end on… Maybe I’ll do the beginning of today…
Saturday-I did a tour of the House of Parliament with Hannah! That was so fun! I’m really glad that we went and did it. We were shocked that no one else wanted to. It was only 10 pounds and was super sweet! Now, I’m on Tumblr, clearly, and I’m doing laundry… And I need a nap… Yay Saturday?
