Something struck me today



No, it wasn't a bus. I just realized something and it was one of those things that make you go... woah. Here it goes: I am getting used to living in London. However anti-climatic that may seem, it hit me like a ton of bricks and made me realize what an amazing opportunity I have and how lucky I am to have it. It's just a strange realization for a kid who grew up in a township thats half corn fields. I took this picture today, its from the steps of the National Gallery overlooking Trafalgar Square with Big Ben in the background down White Hall. I walk by this at least twice a day and it never gets old. When the sun is setting its the best view I've seen in London. This weekend I'm going to Stonehenge and Bath so I'm sure I'll have an update after that. Cheers!

Half cornfields and half fast food restaurants.

When you come back to the colonies, it'll feel like a strange place! Do you catch yourself slipping into a British accent once in awhile?
