Well London is a strange city, to sum it up. Im quite fascinated by the way things work in this weird city to be honest... During this past month that i spent in this place, i've encountered numerous things that suprised me and at the same time impressed me/ dissapointed me...
First of all... Buses; bus drivers are the rudest people u will ever meet! I've never ever been on a bus with a nice driver, and that comeS from someone that uses buses on a daily basis.
Soas is... Well weird. Last night i went to this ritual at soas which was one of the most peculiar things ive ever experienced in my life... It was on the grass at the Russel sq campus and it was something to do with indeginous tribal offerings or something like that. There was one guy that was carrying out the whole ceremony thing and was talking about all those weird 'beliefs' of this tribe like for example the one that struck me the most is that period is sacred and that we women should consider the blood that comes out as an offering to mother earth and that we should offer it to the earth... Something like that anyways. Interesting... But weird.
Also... People in uni are always so friendly... Like wtf why are u talking to me?! I dnt want to knw about all the weird details about ur year off in india or whatever. Like. Im not a friendly and inviting person. And im not used to that , so yeah i found the whole freshers exprience quite painful.
Another thing... All the laws and regulations, like theres a law about every single thing! The other day i found out tht there is a restriction on buying scissors. U cant buy them till ur 21. Like wtf, these people need to CHILL.
Other than the weird details, ive actually enjoyed getting to know the city, which is full of amazing places,markets,bars and parks...
I guess i have a love/hate relationship with Landan :)
Adios and kisses from sunny landan xx (i share with u a photo of a cute square in tottenham court road where i like to sit and have my lunch...)
