Now that I feel better than Yesterday, I should probably discuss some of the things I enjoyed in the London trip.
With the rest of the Math class (some of which were mysteriously missing), I went up to the Royal Observatory in Greenwich. Yes, UP. And I mean that quite literally. The freakin' thing is on a freakishly steep hill and it drained stamina from me. (That's a little Diablo talk.) Because I was so tired, I didn't take much liking to the place. It was pretty unimpressive and dull. But I did enjoy the fresh air up there. After we looked around, Ryiko and I went down and while she was looking for something I lay on the grass and relaxed. I hope to do that more often.
But as much as I enjoyed being in the park, we couldn't find the right direction to the way out. The map was very confusing... or maybe it was because I have absolutely no sense of direction... (I tend to remember ways according to the buildings around me and there wasn't any building. ... Obviously. And there was no road signs. Thus, even though there was street names present on the map, it didn't help us much. But after some wandering, we finally found the way out and also, a tea house. I first thought a tea house was one of those really delicate, aristocratic places in which I should feel very out of place. But... man. It was just a cafeteria posing as a tea house. We had some snacks there and talked. I felt slightly better. I get very anxious when I feel like I'm not moving according to the schedule or very lost. Anyways...
It's a new day today and I think I'm going to do some basic necessity shopping and hopefully, getting some homework done. I have a lot of time so it shouldn't be a problem.
But I must admit that after yesterday I feel curiously down and subdued. I don't know why.
