Week Two.

This week has been a much calmer, less frantic affair - even, God-forbid... with nights in! After the craziness that unfolded, I suppose it was about time that 'real' London life really shone through! That said, interesting stuff has still happened, such as seeing and meeting White Denim (who are now my new favourite band), got a degree, killed Michael Jackson, and ate Ethiopian food! 

And on the topic of Ethiopian food... it characteristically consists of spicy vegetable and meat dishes. usually in the form of a wat, a thick stew, served atop injera, a large sourdough flat bread, which is around 50 cm in diameter and is made out of fermented teff flour. Ethiopians eat with their right hands, using pieces of injera to pick up bites of entrees and side dishes. They don't eat pork, as many Ethiopians are either Orthodox Christians, Muslims or Jews. No utensils are used. Just so you know...
