Wednesday 8/8/12
Still feeling the rush of productivity, I darted from class and headed down to Abbey Road, the location of the recording studio made famous by The Beatles.
I think it might be my near-indifference to the Beatles, but I didn't feel the sense of "Pilgrimage" that so many people feel going there.
It was cool to walk around and it was a decently nice day, so I didn't mind.
After Abbey Road, I came back to the flats and worked on some school stuff and began to think about all of the packing I had to do...
Our professor scheduled a going-away lunch for all of us in Hyde Park right on the Serpentine. It was good food-- I had a flatbread pizza! (and it was subsidized by the Study Abroad program! yay!) It was nice sitting outside in the fresh air and just bonding with everyone from our trip during our last few days/hours together.
After lunch a few of us decided to go to the Tate Museum of Modern Art.
I'm still not truly sure I understand the point of Modern Art so the entire time I was a little bit lost, not to mention that it was closing soon, so a lot of the exhibits were closing and we didn't have a lot of time to look around. I did see some Picasso and some Jackson Pollack though which was cool, I was just exhausted from the entire weeks worth of activities I had jam packed into 3 days...
I came back from the museum and nearly collapsed into my bed and went to bed early, I was desperate for a good night of sleep!!
