London Calling


The Underground sign, Hackney carriages, the Big Ben, the big wheel they like to call the London Eye, the Tower of London, which is not much of a tower, come to think of it, fish&chips, The Queen along with the crown jewels, and Buckingham Palace, imperturbable guards, and especially a red telephone booth... All are more than common London cliches that tourists love to cross out of their to-do list, and locals are far from fed up with.

But like it or not, our lives are already overflowing with stereotypes, and cliches. So why not allow yourself one day a month, at least, to be silly and act out any sort of cliche you want. After all, we seem to be living in a world where anyone can whoever they want to be, regardless of facts or reality. But I digress, hence, since we're talking London, as the immensely hilarious, and extremely informed Bill Bryson said:

"The fact is that this is still the best place in the world for most things - to post a letter, go for a walk, watch television, buy a book, venture out for a drink, go to a museum, use the bank, get lost, seek help, or stand on a hillside and take in a view."

Thus, whether you're in London or not, take an hour off and go be extremely productive at something utterly unimportant, I'm sure you deserve it. Happy Monday!

Oh, aren't you just perfection! ^^
I tried these shoes on, but found them very uncomfortable. Still beautiful, though.
