In less than 12 hours I will be heading down the motorway towards Maidstone! Really excited about CAA. So what do I do the day before I start a new chapter in my life? I spent it in one of my favourite places in London.
Camden Town.
One of the great things I love about London is that everything is within walking distance. When I walk through Camden there's always hordes of tourists, people selling their CDs, punks with banners. It's such an eclectic mix of people and I love feeling anonymous.
Whenever I go by the Lock I'm always greeted by this front of Chinese people trying to sell their £4 noodles. They're literally shoving their chicken samples into your mouth!
I've noticed how the place is a lot less dirty and grundgy as it used to be. They used to sell more varied things. Now, it's all the same China-imported vintage fashions. I like the stalls still, don't get me wrong, but it's lost a bit of it's, dare I say it, edgy-ness. I suppose you can't keep a place the same. London is constantly evolving, with or without me.
Here are a few photos that speak more than words can say.
It's buy one get one free at the Bubble Tea place by the Lock. Hurry! I got a green tea with tapioca and a taro with lychee bop.
I love how the seats are made from old motorbikes! Imagine if the engineer forgot to take away the engine and you drive straight into the river.
So now it's goodbye Laaaandan Taan and hellooo Maidstone! We'll be heading down to Cornwall for 2 weeks for orientation so I won't be blogging. Unfortunately, due to the nature of the course I probably won't be able to do as much art as I'd like but hey, that's just the way it is, things will never be the saaaaaaaame.
Yes I'm quoting 2pac, and what?
再見!
