kid in a candy shop...

today was fabulous.

we started off talking to an MP from the House of Commons at parliament then we got a tour.

i loved it. i mean i got to stand inside the house of commons and house of lords. and we got to see the processional of the Speaker. and see all of this really old historical stuff... and see where the Queen sits and it was just amazing.

we had a quick tour through the house of commons because it was wendnesday and they do Question Time wednesday afternoons so they had to set up.

i guess i am just a dork and like government stuff. needless to say i thought it was very cool.

i am a political science double major--- give me some credit.

then we went to BBC and got a tour of BBC.

so i went from politics to tv news. seriously i was a kid in a candy shop.

the past few days ive been a little nervous- because i dont seem to be as excited about my internship as my roommates. but when i walked into BBC and saw the newsroom my heart beat just a little bit faster.

and it reassured me that i am in love with tv news.

i love the way the newsrooms are set up- and the buzz and the different TV screens and inews and reading AP wires.

although i must say--- i havent watched BBC much... but i am obsessed with Sky News over here. i think it is just so fabulous and i love the way they format their shows... dont judge me

after that i came back and took a nap before jen, megan and i went to De Mario's- an italian place known for its pizza-- (i had 4 cheese pizza with roasted sweet peppers) and Princess Diana used to take her boys there often. and it was sooo good.

now im just chilling and reading a book before bed.

my internship doesnt start tomorrow (haha thats because i still dont know what it is.... dont ask)

so i have the day free.

not sure what to do.... we shall see.

so recap of the day: love parliment- obsessed with tv news- and pizza= amazing.

i know i am a nerd. but i love it.
