I've been in London for two days now and I'm finding my way around pretty well. Of course making some minor and enourmously embarassing mistakes, such as totally butting in line - to the very front - to get a tube ticket as I didn't see there was a mass amount of people lined up politely behind me. Then using the Emergency Exit at the BUNAC office, which was clearly and blatantly signed so, because I was so nervous and decided not to read the signs but just go through the first door I saw... bad plan. Loud alarms. OH and cameras to boot, so they caught the whole thing on tape, yeah! But I expected to be making stupid mistakes like that, though I still feel like an idiot.
Anyways, I went to orientation yesterday and that was great, met with other people on the program, went to lunch with this one guy, Richard, then got a cell phone and went back to BUNAC to job hunt. After that I met up with Richard and his friend Ryan and we had dinner, then took in a play by the Reduced Shakespeare Company, "A Brief History of America". It was great! Then came back to the hostel and went to bed before anyone else.. I feel like a little old lady. But my excuse is that I'm still adjusting to the time.. so there. Well better go do more job hunting.
