LSE does Clubbing





Clockwise from top left: Irene, Will, and Margaret. Margaret, Irene and Eli.
What a strange night it was last night. We decided to give our college Soiree a go, so we headed down to 'Crush', which is basically a club night that's organised in our student union. It was a bizarre mix St. Anthony's disco, the Footfest disco, and some crazy pill-popping knacker night club. But all in all, we had a cracking time and danced for about 4 hours straight! My poor feet are recovering from the ordeal of having been abused and maimed in my Mary Jane heels. (Note to self: just dont bother wearing heel, when you can just wear trainers..) So now im having a slight identity crisis because its the first Saturday of the first week of term, and im in the library... I cant quite pinpoint how that makes me feel because its so bizarre. But the thing is that its all GO GO GO around here, and i have a presentation (...shiver at the word..) first thing monday. I still have no clue wat im going to say. (Hence the desperate appeals to Helpdesk.dad.com) So there you go. Just found out thankfully from Eibh that theres footie on tonight. Im so bloody out of the loop over here, i didnt have a clue! So i contacted my only Irish friend John and im going to join him and his friends later to watch the match. Better get cracking on the role of blood sacrifice in unifying the nation.. Happy times!
Ps... I saw three very disturbing things this morning (i use the term loosely) as i came into college.
1) Two knackers/scumbags on the tube beside me actually smoking crack/heroin in a lightbulb.. Absolutely NO shame. Ive never seen someone with a weirder/glassier look in their eyes.
2) A girl who could NOT have been more than 8 or 9, wearing skin tight jeans and an ACTUAL belly top
3) A PROPER tramp/homeless person walking by with his life belongings in a bin liner, happily sipping away on a Starbucks Frappaccino

Its only the begining my friend!Weirdos are commonplace in a BIG CITY like London. Just here at my desk in bxl with mum enjoying your recent post.Arrived in at 9am after 3 hours sleep the night before - taxi came at 3.30am.Felt weird getting up at that time with everyone just on their way home from a night out on the piss. Already managed to raid the adventure shop next to IKEA yay!!! Mum is next to me here and says "pleeze get people to take photos of you!!!! - looking forward to the next installment of Sok In The City, sponsored by Baileys. Take care and good luck for presentation. They get easier don't worry xxx

Now, firstly, when uve got Starbucks, you've got it all. You know, its no biggy if uve shoved your whole life into a freakin out of shape plastic bag,as long as you've got a frappucino.First life lesson in London. Secondly, i feel theres a witty joke to be formed from:crack,lightbulb and glassy...ill leave you to it, but du see wat i WANT to do there? AND LISTEN! You, are very GOOD at presentations. If u remember correctly, you came out smiling after every presentation, cos u realised it was a chance to show wat you know.You're in full control,you're leading the class and you have the power to inform.Im sending you presentation confidence as we speak tho!!!xx
