Downtown!

Classes technically started today, but I don't have any Monday classes, which is all kinds of fantastic. So instead, I walked to the City Centre (which is the equivalent of a downtown area, I think) and did a little shopping. I hardly recognized any stores. They had an H&M and a Zara, but that was about it that I recognized. I went into the Agent Provocateur shop on Ingram street. Gulp. I was infatuated. Unfortunately (or maybe it was fortunate...), the cheapest bra and knicker set came to a total of 155 pounds. Ouch. Drool-worthy things, though. Then I went to TopShop, which is kind of the equivalent of Forever 21 in the States. Although I have to say, TopShop is far classier. Didn't get much of anything. I just had a lot of fun walking around and checking out all the shopping options. And of course, people watching. It was about a 5 mile walk total, so my paws are crying now. On my way home, I stumbled across this wonderful little pub. I'll be going there before too long.

  2. Which is exactly why I didn't buy them! I am still a poor college student. :)
