Today with did a ton of walking around the city. So far I've seen McDonald's, Burger King, KFC, Subway, Pizza Hut, H&M, and The Gap. There was also a lot of British stuff. My favorite punny store names were 'Running Bath' (store with running gear), 'Blooming Marvelous' (maternity wear), and one more that eludes me at the moment.
I'm working on studying the accent so that I can obnoxiously repeat it when I get home. I'm worried that I'll start using it while I'm here and make an arse out of myself, but I'm trying hard to resist. So far my favorite expression is "have a [verb]," most common being "have a look." Any verbs work, ex. "have a read" or "have a sleep." It's a very passive way of making an order and I love it.
Tomorrow we have two "Diagnostic Writings" which is somewhat troubling as they've allotted two hours for each...looking forward to it.
