I went to Westminster Abbey today for the sung eucharist. It was different from St. Paul's, but I liked it. The sermon was about environmental protection!!! Uber rad! (Okay, sorry about the overload on exclamation points, but I really am expressing my excitement) He talked about how with the general election coming up here, green issues get swept under the rug and how that's not right. He encouraged everyone to not just sit back and wait for the world to change, but to actually do something about it at an individual level (it really related to what we talked about yesterday Ames). It was the perfect last message to hear before leaving, facing graduation.

Afterwards, I met up with Ming at Camden (a street market - a bit more alternative than Portobello). It was fun watching and assisting Ming with her jewelry shopping. I bought a few scarves for gifts (and for myself) and I finally got this polka-dot shirt I've been wanting since the first time I went to Camden. There was a Korean man running one of the booths. It was nice to speak Korean.

I think it's sad that I spend my entire paycheck - an entire week's worth of work - in a weekend. About a quarter of it went to tea, yes tea. I'm crazy.

Well, I'm nearly all packed. It's a strange, surreal feeling to think I'll be coming home in a couple of days. Oh my goodness - a couple of days!!! I'm excited to see everyone and especially my mommy. I really missed her. We sent cards to each other throughout my time here, so that's been fun. She said she has a "London corner" where she has pictures, postcards, bookmarks, and cards I've sent her. That makes me smile.
