Occupy London

Looks like occupying places is all the rage. St. Paul's Cathedral is currently closed indefinitely due to protesters. Good thing we already went! I would have been super mad. I did really want to go to evensong there, so hopefully it will open up soon. My friend Kendal and I were on the way to the Tate Modern Museum and we decided to walk by St. Paul's to see the protesters. Turns out protesters everywhere are hippies.


All the business/ Wall Street guys used to eat their lunch on these steps! Now what?!



These guys wanted to interview me and Kendal. I warned them that we were not super informed and educated on the situation. They just wanted us to say that the situation is bullcrap (change of word). I just told them that it affects me because I'm a University student, and that doesn't mean I'll have a job when I graduate. Then he said, "what about the future. THE FUTURE!" And I said that normally the economy has somewhat of a cycle, and that hopefully we'll pull out of it. I don't think we gave them what they wanted. I should have said, "well last time the economy was really bad during the depression, WWII really helped. So let's bump up this war!" They would've loved that.






P.S. I don't want the war bumped up
