Nearing the End

Hey everyone. Thanks for reading Anarchy in the UK. I'm not sure when my internet will be destroyed, so I'm writing a pre-destroyed blog blog entry to prep for the future. Today and yesterday have been really nice. Yesterday was the first day in quite some time that I didn't go on a run and let my legs get some rest. Today I hit the track for a couple miles, but I'm hoping that I can pick up the usual Regents circuit again. Today I also took a visit to the Imperial War Museum. It definitely ranks as one of my favorite places in the city when it comes to content. There isn't much special about the building itself, but I found a lot of things that sparked my interest. One of the best parts was the Holocaust exhibit. I just wanted to mention how well the museum symbolizes the experience. You enter the exhibit on the Fourth floor, and it includes discussion about anti-semitism and basically the events leading up to the holocaust. Then, you descend down the stairs to the displays discussing the actual concentration camps. Whether they planned it or not (I really hope they planned it), the descent down the stairs kind of represented the descent out of the propagandized and glorified German perspective of anti-semitism before the war. The lighting even changes once you change floors and it adds to the experience as a whole. I had actually been to the museum earlier on this trip but it was cut short due to certain circumstances. Either way, I'm glad that I returned and saw the rest of the museum. As a short note, I just want to clarify that when I go to see a museum, I go to see the entire museum. My roommates are part of that group of people who go the museum to say they went. I am that person who goes to see every exhibit and attempts to read every display available.

Okay, so it's sad that this blog is ending, but it would be stupid to continue it in the US. I'm thankful that people have read it and I hope they enjoyed it. Of course, that is assuming that someone read it. Gracias! PS... I've got some other plans for blogs in the future, and I'm not going to automatically add people to the mailing list like I did this one. It will kind of be a sign up experience. If you want to be involved, you'll have to let me know. I actually wouldn't mind it involving more people than just myself. So, if you are interest, just leave a comment or request to be added to the mailing list. Take it easy.
