Some pics - day by day

It's 5:16pm of a Monday. The day was beautiful, sunny, a little cold but not windy. I came home after changing my mobile phone (I had a Nokia old-style and now I'm using a Sony Ericsson). I know, I know... I never liked this phone. In fact, I hated it - and I think I still do - but the other phone had been so used that it turns off by itself, you know? And, I must confess, it kind felt like I was coming home with something new... so sad...
Anyway, I arrived home and had something to eat while trying to find out how that thing worked.

You know, I have officially given up looking for work at stores and online. I must have sent 30 to 40 resumes, by email or regular mail (which meant spending money on stamps) and nothing! I'm a student here, I'm allowed to work part-time, there are (or were) a lot of part-time vacancies but nope!, not for me! I'm guessing not being part of the EU is the main reason. Now that eastern Europe is part of the community, man, they've gotten all the fucking jobs!
At least this weekend things were okay. Work wasn't that bad afterall, though I'd really like to have a day off. Having to wake up at 6:30am every single day is a bitch. It's hard to believe this but I've been going to sleep before 11pm!

Last Friday I decided to take some pics. It was Amelie's last day at the school, so I brought the camera and had our picure taken. From left to right: BB (Korea), Amelie (Germany), Esther (Germany), Donna (teacher), Eva (Spain), myself. Katherine didn't show up that day and Julie hasn't shown up for more than a week.



After the class I stayed at the school and studied for a while. I'm already studying for CPE (I brought my books from Brazil), but I don't have the answers of the coursebook, so it's been pretty much a shot in the dark, I'm never sure whether my answers are correct or not.
I took the bus to Piccadilly and wanted to take a pic of this thing that I pass by every morning and every morning it makes me want to laugh! I showed this to Adri and he saw no connection, if you see the connection, keep it to yourself!!!



Afterwards I went to Trafalgar Square, the only place in London where I wouldn't see any English people, only people like me: tourists!!! Because, honestly, I'm nothing but that here, so maybe I would feel more comfortable amongst a bunch of strangers who hardly spoke English carrying cameras and looking like dorks! I felt great!



I tried to take a cool pic, but the camera didn't help much. It's so tiny and simple that it's complicated!!!



I walked all the way to Parliament and Big Ben. Again, I wish I could take better pics, sorry about that...



Afterwards I tried to find Tower Bridge, but no luck. I found the Tower of London, though, and I know the Bridge must be right beside it, but I didn't see it! And then I walked for a little while and found the Bullet Building (I don't know what the real name is, so it's the Bullet Building for me).





I came home and Paula and Ethan were going to the theater to see Death of a Salesman. I bought a few beers and talked to Adri on MSN. Called Lula and talked to him for a little while and finally I got to talk to Ronaldo on MSN. He sent me a few pics from Paris, they were great!!!
