WORK and RAIN...What a Combination...
Hey everyone...sorry for not writing in a long time...The last three weeks have kind of been a whirlwind...so I will do my best to catch everyone up...
School finished with a flurry that grabbed me and would not let go. Finals were just annoying...they were all jam packed together which was frustrating...and this year we got this AWFUL take home Economics final which just took forever to finish...On top of that I had a language exam as well...UGH...Lets just say that I am very happy to be done with school...I hope the pictures and champagne show how I really felt!
Now...who needs a break right? One day after finals, works starts...So I am spending the summer at Morgan Stanley, on the Sales and Trading side. So far...AWESOME...I am very happy with the people, the program and everything I am learning. Now I know...it has only been two weeks...but I have already begun to hear some horror stories from other people...and thankfully I do not have any myself...so, so far, so good...
Also...something that really brightens up my day...the FOOD at work...awesome...I feel like I am working at GOOGLE...everything you can imagine...10 cooking stations...nuts...my goal is not to put on 10 pounds due to over eating this summer...
Life in all aspects is good otherwise...I am really excited at being elected to join the Student Association of London...I get to help out clubs with sponsorship and PR...so that should be fun...
The rest of the summer should be a lot of fun...some nice concerts here and there...I will also venture out into the English country...Oxford...Bath...it's time to properly see the little island...that is if it ever stops raining...I have tried not to bitch about the weather...but it has just been BRUTAL lately...I am keeping my fingers crossed for an awesome July...
OK...Lastly...here is my BEST of LONDON as promised:
1. BEST PEOPLE WATCHING - Covent Garden - Just great...and DON'T FALL FOR THE BIKE TRICK...NO ONE EVERY GETS ACROSS!
2. BEST COOKIES - BEN COOKIES - Covent Garden / South Kensington
3. BEST KEBABS - BOSPHORUS KEBABS - South Kensington
4. BEST PUB - THE WESTBOURNE / COW - Notting Hill
5. BEST FOOD - WHOLE FOODS - High Street Kensington
6. BEST MARKET - BOROUGH MARKET
7. BEST THAI / BEST BELGIAN - BUSABA / BELGO
Stick with these things...and I promise hours of fun and quality weight gain :-)
Ok...I think thats it from me...back to work...(man...that sounds weird to write)...enjoy the picture from Hyde Park...
