A short post to mark the beginning of my 3rd week in London (not that I'm counting). Went to Covent Garden/Soho/Piccadilly Circus yesterday and it was very exciting, with all the different sights and sounds, and experiencing the bustle of the city. I met up with Anne's JC friend by the name of Phoebe, and we, together with a friend of hers, had dinner at this spanish place in Soho which was really good in my opinion. You know, value for money - loved the tortilla (which is potato and egg omeletty thing - not the Mexican type?) and paella. Ate so much food for 'only' 12 pounds!
Walked along the perimeter of what is Chinatown but all the shops were closed, and tried to take in as much information from Phoebe as I could (she was telling me about this Malaysian restaurant if I needed my chicken rice/nasi lemak/etc fix). Come to think about it I don't even know where it is now...it's in some little lane somewhere!
Walked through Leicester Square with all the cinemas, theatres showing musicals etc, jazz bars (Jane Monheit is slated to perform in June or something). I would definitely go back there and have a proper walk around again.
Ok this short post is turning into a long one, so I shall end here, because I've got to go back to my study. I've got an exam this Friday so please all those who are reading this - pray for me! Hahaha...thanks!
