Today was my first day of classes. It went pretty well for a first day. I did absolutely nothing all morning and then
to appease my grumbling tummy, I went outside for a free Freshers Week
luncheon. Freshers Week is like Welcome
Back Week at SLU. Except for the fact
that the point is for us to make friends and have free drinks. We can check off that making friends part! At the luncheon, we sat with a guy from
France and a guy from Belgium. So international.
Earlier tonight, I went on a Jack the Ripper Walk in London’s
East End. It was great! We rode the tube forever and a year, and when we got off;
there was the Tower of London! This seems
to be a common occurrence. I walk out of
the tube station and some amazing historical site pops up right in front of
me. I kinda like it.

Our tour guide for the walk was awesome. He was a great story teller. Very suspenseful! We saw most of the
locations of the murders and learned all about the suspects. He also told us a lot of useful information
about the East End. There was a really
cool market that we walked through that I definitely will have to return to at
some point. All in all, a great first
day of class!
