Some pictures...

OK so from top right to bottom left...Me at the Vogue House...Liberty, the oldest department store, amazing inside, the architecture is to die for...Carnaby St...Soho...Me at Harrods (notice the really cute shoes...they have strawberries on the toes)...Harrods chocolate, to die for, and their samples are whole pieces...Deepti and Me trying on lipstick in Harrods...MY 1st GOURMET DINNER!!! I made it my self, stuffed peppers and tomatoes...and then Church, Hillsong style (I finally got in)...

Ok sorry I haven't been keeping up...we have big Internet problems and on top of that my computer kept freezing b/c of all the photos I've been downloading, but I'm here! So I can't remember what I did Saturday or else I'd tell you, so I'll start with Sunday. My roommate Emelie, classmate Deepti, and I went to Harrods! It was even more amazing than I thought. Absolutely stunning...they literally sell everything. From Chanel to Diamonds to salmon to vegetables...it was kind of strange, they had a grocery store in it...I guess rich people get their apple's from Harrods? We walked around and looked at 9,000 GBP ostrich Prada bags and Jimmy Choos. I bought some chocolate and we had lunch there. It was amazing...and very reasonably priced. Afterwards the went to Harry Nichols and I rode the tube for the first time by myself...I came out alive and with all my belongings. I rode the tube to church. I went an hour and 20 mins early...so as not to have a repeat of last week. I met some really sweet people. They are sooooooooo friendly there and just walk right up to you and introduce you to people they think have the same interests as you etc. it was amazing...very homey feeling for a church of 10,000+. I sat next to a guy from Wales; he and his girlfriend had just moved back to Wales form Brazil. He works in a Christian Circus and now is going to seminary. They were very sweet and nice, and very interesting to talk to. The service was incredible. It was like being at a rock concert. They had neon lights flashing everywhere with smoke and an incredible worship team and band. They had a guest speaker form Ireland I think. He was really good and inspiring. It was funny listening to him speak b/c UK humor is so different and I had a delayed reaction a couple times b/c I couldn't figure out what he meant. :) or he would use phrases such as "sending out a negative report" (taking about the spys and moses) and that might sound normal, but how he was using it...it wasn't a phrase you'd never hear in the US. So it was a service full of cultural growth. :) But awesome...and a great message.

Classes Started Monday. They are awesome. After I finish Friday I'll give an overview of all of them and tell you all what I think. They are each only once a week, but a lot of intensive out of class work. The "essential reading list" for each class has over 10 library books! I'll be learning a lot...we have the largest fashion library in Europe. :)

Tomorrow I'm off to see Big Ben for my European Independent Project class and then on Friday we are going to the Victor and Rolf exhibition at the Barbican Museum. So it will be a very interesting end to my first week...

I need my beauty sleep so I'll tell you about the $6,000 dress I tried on today later. Hope everyone is doing well! love u all
