i decided this guy has one of the worst jobs ever.

we're up to tuesday now. let's see if we can catch this up at all. nothing is quite as exciting the day after.

i had my "interview" in the morning. I somehow managed to find the place and just in time too. it wasn't really an interview. more like and explanation of the company and my role. all over my head. we'll see what i really do come tuesday (monday's a national holiday). it looks like i'll be working with the product development team. and when i told her my major was international marketing she said she might be able to put me over with the international marketing lady for some stuff. everyone in there is a female! i never saw or heard of one male within that company... :)

all afternoon we did some more touring around london a bit. went all over liecester square. and i'll give you a cookie if you can pronounce that right. went through chinatown. there's nothing much to say about these places other than we walked all through them. we walked a lot!

in the evening we ate out. side note: everyone here seems to eat all their meals out. i seem to be the only guy who's thought of buying food at the grocery store and cooking it at home. even breakfast. they either don't eat or pick up something on the road. after dinner we went to a pub near piccadilly circus. it was a really nice place. there was a tiny lift upstairs that you can order and receive drinks from. you put your money and order in the lift, pull the rope to send it down, and the bartender puts the drinks in and sends it back up. it was worth going just for the lift. and luckily i was with another person who doesn't drink so i didn't feel like a killjoy. interesing thing though, the majority of the people in there were american - and not from our program.
