Today Meggan and I visited the V&A (Victoria and Albert museum). It was really cool, the museum is just a collection of random artifacts from all over. There is a special exhibit on architecture right now so there are seven different houses from all over the world in different places around the museum. After the V&A we got crepes for lunch (seriously I think we have a crepe addiction) and I met my class to go out to Freud's house. We toured the house where he spent the last year of his life after moving from Nazi occupied Vienna. In the house you can see Freud's artifacts from all over the world, his famous therapy couch, a large book collection and his daughter Anna's office and place where she conducted psychoanalysis. It was cool to see the house and it's located in a cute neighborhood. When I got back from Freud's house Meggan, Ashley and I went to Lillywhites which is a HUGE (6 floors!) sporting goods store. I bought a new pair of Nike tennis shoes for 30 pounds since my old ones are pretty trashed and keep getting holes in them. I also got a pair of Nike shorts for 12 pounds. That night we went to Texas Embassy for student night. They gave Baylor the entire top floor and really good deals on drinks and shots.
