Graduation.

FINALLY!!
I'm back!! So much has happened since I last posted. I literally had the title of my next blog "Graduation" with an introduction but never got around to finishing it. I have had the chance to do some really fun trips and would like to start keeping a record of things for myself, and I hope they are interesting enough for you to read too!

On Monday November 21, 2011.... my course finally had our graduation ceremony!! YAY. We actually recieved our results in October but it was still a nice feeling that is official. I am not really into formal ceremonies, the main reason being my last name starts with a "W" so it always takes forever for it to be my turn to stand up and walk across the stage.




The ceremony was in Royal Festival Hall which is located right near the Thames so it had an amazing view. It was nice for everyone to celebrate with our families.


Afterwards, a group of us went out to dinner to celebrate with a proper British meal, at a bistro pub called, Fire Station. I absolutely LOVE this place, everytime I have been I always seem to find something good to eat. Also they do the best "chips" (chunky french fries). They are a little bit crispy on the outside and fluffy & potatoe-y on the inside. Yum!!! I highly recommend this place for a midweek meal because it's so easy to get a table in the resturant but it's a really fun after work atmosphere.
