Weekend with Hugh Grant.

Jason Karsh [you just got a google alert, didn't you?] How do you like the title of this blog post?

We were at the British Museum yesterday having breakfast/lunch with JK, and Tiff is convinced that some tourists took pictures of us thinking that Jason was Hugh Grant and we were his two prostitutes. We weren't sitting in front of anything particularly interesting and apparently they kept staring and took turns taking pictures of us...So if you see us in a tabloid, you'll know that Hugh Grant isn't a player. And that we are not prostitutes.

Couldn't find a Daniel Henney to bring back to Boston. Sorry girls!

Adventures in London: [High Holborn LSE flat. Greatest]

I killed a giant over the weekend. I told you, I'm a lot stronger than I look.

JK, you too can be a TOPMAN.

Tea at Claridge's. Scones are the best.

Tea at Harrods. Tea is also the best.

Hummingbird Bakery. Tiff bought one...I bought three.

Portobello.

Recessions are older than Jesus.

Thoughts:
I go back and forth on the Israeli/Palestinian conflict. Media, stop making me feel like I need to pick a side!

You know how those mushroom bullets are illegal by international law? We need to have a new law that says only words are allowed. It's what I told the 2 year old I used to babysit. "Sophia, use your words." She had very few, but she still managed. If a 2 year old with a limited vocabulary can do it, we can too!

I want to be like quicksand.

Memorable Quotes:
Tiff: Do you want a Chinese soldier? They're on sale.

Me: I don't plan on having kids. I don't have child bearing hips.
JK: Me neither, but I still plan on having kids.

Tiff: I don't think I live extravagantly. [as we were leaving high tea at Claridge's]

Tiff: The ATM machine ate Esther's debit card.
Tiff's mom: What? You didn't have enough money to eat lunch?
[Yeah...my ATM card got eaten. OF COURSE that would happen to me]

Also, there's no hot water in the apartment and the owner just dropped by to say we could shower at his place. b/c that's not awkward at all. I guess it was nice of him to offer.

Off to shower! Haha. Kidding.

Visit to J.K./ OMG EPIC FAIL.

To all the kids who think that we just sit around sipping tea and playing tennis: SUCK IT.

Although I do enjoy doing both of those things...

Going to visit J.K. (Jason Karsh, not J.K. Rowling) at LSE this weekend and I'm excited to have high tea. Don't judge me. I've never been to England before!

CHANDA. You didn't send me a list of things that you wanted, so I'm just going to pick out whatever I would want for myself since we're the same person, mk?!

Serena, please check your e-mail and respond. I sent letters packed with older sister wisdom.
Remember, if you accept drinks from boys you don't know, you could DIE. If you go to frat parties and drink really cheap beer, your liver will DIE. Anyway, just read my e-mails. They're more detailed.

Time to pack for London.
Back on Monday. Then back in NY on Thursday.

OMGAHHH. AWKWARD. EPIC FAIL. This is the dude I got into a 2 hour argument with outside my office over the summer and we kept thinking that we could convince the other that we were right. But obviously, I was right...b/c hello, I'm an Econ major at Wellesley and I was so well prepared. Duh.

me: hi myles. what does your status mean?
also, i had a missed call from you earlier, but i didn't get a chance to call you back before i left the country

Myles: hi esther, Myles isn't here. I am his wife, Malene- I can tell you what it means though
