EDIT: I did go back to Primark and Selfridges Department stores this morning and when I got off the tube I snapped this picture of the Marble Arch. Beyond the Arch is Hyde Park which was once a royal hunting ground.
However I have had a bad headache all day and made my first visit to the chemist to get some relief after 4 ibuprofen didn't even touch it. I learned that paracetamol is acetaminophen (Tylenol) over here and that it is not sold over the counter, that you have to request it from the Pharmacy clerks...interesting.
Another interesting thing today was that I found out I won a contest back in Tallahassee for a vacation at the Sandestin Resort. I entered it about 2 months ago (it was a trivia thing put on by my local TV station) and they sent me a notification that I won on June 1st but I never noticed it! So today they tried to contact me again and luckily I got the message. I am excited because the vacation is good until 05/08! So now I have something fun and free to do for New Years! Best part...there was also a cash prize! Woo Hoo! ABC 27 is Great!
So, that's all I have for now. I might possibly go to Killearny Ireland this weekend, I found a cheap flight and a cheap hostel. I am going to try to hook it up with my flatmates and see if they are interested in the trip. If I go there will potentially be a delay in my next blog but don't fret I hope the pictures will be worth the suspense (hahahahaha).
Hope you all have a nice night!
