Yesterday I had my second interactive media class, which was really fun and interesting. I finally picked my project (more on that tomorrow). After class, it was absolutely gorgeous, so Laura and Kate and I decided to hang out and grab lunch. We walked down to a cafe that none of us had been to previously, The Treehouse, which was absolutely wonderful. So cute inside, and absolutely delicious. They had a really good menu, a student discount, and all day breakfast (which is basically the best thing ever - also, I had literally just been talking about how awesome breakfast is and how there should really be so many more places serving all day breakfast, so that was pretty funny).
I got a really great panini that was olive, tomato, and cheese (I was really torn because they had so many awesome veggie sandwiches, including a goats cheese, pine nut, and spinach sandwich). They came with two side salads, one pasta, one mixed green (or you could get a soup, which is what Laura did). Seriously tasty.
After lunch we went up to the Cameo cinema to sign up for the slackers club, which is a free student film every couple of months. I also decided to get the student membership, which also gives you two free movies a year and a discount every time.
Following that, we stopped into a couple of charity shops. There are a lot more charity shops in the UK, so you can pick and chose which charities to support, which was nice since the couple of thrift shops back home were run by organizations with some very problematic elements.
Had an awesome (and cheap) shopping spree, grabbing a couple of shirts, a muffin tin (which I was planning to buy new this week so that was perfect! And it was only a pound!), and what is probably the best thing I've ever found in a thrift shop, a Wonder Woman mug and socks.
Really awesome day with the girls :)
