Bring me to the test, and I the matter will re-word

Okay, so this is about Sunday and Monday.  Second to last London post.  Terribly sad.

Alright, so Sunday I totally slept in, which was absolutely amazing and came in incredibly handy later.  When I finally did get up and get ready for church, I also prepared my lesson.  I was teaching sharing time for senior primary, but as Catherine got called home early Saturday morning, there was nobody to teach junior primary's sharing time, which took place at the same time.  So when I finally reached primary come third hour, I was told that I'd be teaching junior AND senior primary at the same time.  Well, you can imagine how well that went over.

You know how you have those days when you walk into a roomful of kids and know that there is no way that they are going to easily sit still and listen.  What they need is to run around the outside of the building four times, take a nap, eat dinner, and then come back.  Not sit in Primary and listen to a lesson.  Well, thankfully, about five minutes into the lesson the primary president, along with all of the kids, told me that I could just switch into English.  However, this caught me a bit off guard, and so the format of the lesson went rather differently.  Anyway, yeah, enough of that I suppose.  I'll save my griping for another time.

Monday was, of course, finals.  So Sunday night/Monday morning I was up really really rather late writing papers and the like.  Of course, it totally paid off because Monday morning I was totally relaxed and ready.  Remember all the sleep I stocked up on Sunday morning?  Yeah, it really came in handy.

Finals went alright.  In history we actually got one last lecture in before our super short multiple choice final.  You know the sort.  You fill out all the answers really quickly and although you acknowledge that some of them are wrong, there's really nothing that you're going to change no matter how long you sit there because you've already written down your best guesses.

Really cool piece that we analyzed at the Saatchi Gallery.

Yeah, so then we headed over to the Saatchi Gallery for our Fine Arts final.  We had a written portion that we turned in earlier that was sort of a reflection on the class, and then we went to the museum where we went around and analyzed different pieces.  We'd picked them out previously so that we could research them and say something intelligent.

Anyway, after that we were really tired so we headed back to the Center.  We've spent a lot of time just talking to each other lately it feels like.  Lots of Monday was sitting around and talking and laughing.  But then we had dinner in the park.  Sack lunches basically just over in the park.

Sarah and I in the park.  This is an awful picture, but I feel compelled to put one up.

Anyway, after our delightful lunch in the park (I finally had a pudding in England, so that was exciting) a group of us went to Harrods.  It's like THE department store in London.  We saw puppies that cost 2000 pounds, a stuffed giraffe that cost 995 pounds, which was admittedly huge, but still.  It was crazy.  It was basically like a mall except that it was all one store.  No big huge open spaces in the middle dividing everything.  It was pretty neat.

Yeah, um, so this is the Globe.  With teddy bears that are moving, putting on a play.  Coolest thing ever.

Yeah, so Harrods was pretty neat.  Big old store.  Or new.  Or whatever.  Can you tell that I'm tired?  Anyway, so then we just came back to the Center and laughed and giggled and reminisced.
