EDIT: found the official site! now you can see all? of the pictures =)
i'm not into photography that much but the photos were truly awesome - some of them were amazing and some of them just made you super sad since there were lots of photos of news stories and contemporary issues - you weren't allowed to take photos so too bad for you guys
anyways this is a statue of the dude who first mapped out the coast of australia i believe - and that statue behind him was his cat named trim
after we went to the photo exhibit we walked around the city and checked out some cool stores and walked through The Strand (again for me)
cool stationery store that vanessa would prob like
and this other stationery store had cups with pantone colors on it! haha i thought it was cool
and you know the "keep calm and..." series of stuff that floats around on the net/tumblr? apparently my friend babette had a friend who worked on it to expand it from london or something? so yea, that's pretty cool - she was excited to see it haha
then i split up with the group since they wanted to go on the walking tour and wanted to eat somewhere close by whereas i wanted to eat some good food so i went to Chinatown and ate at The Coffee Place (ate a beef sandwich...which they called a burger lol - it was reaaally good - only $10.80 with student discount and it came with a small salad)
then i shopped around at Paddy's Market cause there's just so much shit to buy there lol and then got myself a hot hazelnut milk tea at Chatime - that was really good too =) although now that i drink more it's quite sweet and the caffeine is making me a little jumpy...not good lol
and yea, that was basically my day - i'm still full from lunch =\

7/25/11 random note: did i mention an atheist club here on campus yet? they were passing out flyers that said "HAS GOD FAILED?" and there were people on campus today wearing bright blue hoodies that had that on it too - they're so much more hardcore than the atheists at UT haha
