Its been a busy few weeks! right now im so looking forward to the holidays and actually have a day off and talk to people back home. I miss you guys! Talk to me more!
Its funny how your perceptions of things change after being in london. You realise that all the beurocracy and non sensical stuff that seems so pointless in the rest of the country actually makes sense in london.
Also my perception of ethnicity has changed too. My first walk down lewisham high street was like ":O im actually the only white person here", but now i see that its about half white half black, and it was just the shock of going from a totally white area to a more mixed one.
City living subtly changes your psychology - if you worried about litter here, you wouldnt be able to function and have time for your day. Pigeons undeground in tube stations becomes a normality. talking to strangers is no longer a problem. green space becomes prized, and you dont realise you are living without it until you find some of it and take a deep breath and actually stop. being busy becomes normality. London loses its mysticism. everyone knows what dupstep is. you stop thinking of london as a city and more like a county where the towns all merged together
that kinda thing~
