Thursdays with Camilla

So, Camilla is his Swedish girl I know from Uni. She's from Stockholm Uni as well but we didn't know each other before we moved here. When we met in the beginning of the term we decided to speak English to each other since we're partly here to improve our language skills. It's been so good to have someone to talk to and to explore London with!

We decided early on to try out a new area of London every Thursday night and it's been really good! We have the same classes on Thursdays and it's always a really long and intense day so it's so nice to get out, walk around a new area and have dinner and drinks. So far we've been to: Hammersmith, Imperial Wharf, Brick lane, Victoria, Clapham and yesterday we went to Camden. So far Camden is definitely my favourite area! Clapham was also really good!

We we're just talking yesterday and realized that there aren't many Thursdays left as Camilla is going home in 2-3 weeks :( It's been such a good experience though and the best way  to get to know London!! I will miss our Thursdays! :'(

This day has not been the best...

This day has been poo. I've been at uni all day studying. When I finally decided to go home at 7pm my first train to Clapham was late. It actually said on the screen that it was late because someone got hit by a train...seems bizarre to put it up there. Anyway, I did manage to make my second train but then suddenly it was announced that the train would terminate in Shepherd's bush. I got off there and went up to ask about how to get home and the answer was: take the overground to Willesden jct, change to Watford jct and then take the train toward Milton Keynes. Sigh....did I mention I had my laptop and loads of books to carry as well?
I've actually been thinking about how the train system seems really good here and that there are rarely delays. I guess the thing is that when there is a problem it's really a problem. It's not easy to get from south London to Berko if the trains aren't working!

You would think this poo day ends there? Nope! A while ago I tried to turn my laptop on and a text appeared saying that a fan isn't working properly and that it shouldn't be turned on. Still managed to do it to save my essay on a USB.... I just really hope it works tomorrow so that I don't have to waste 3-4 hours traveling to uni and back!

I am not a happy camper right now...
