Actually, I felt that Cambridge is actually better for shopping because the shops are more organised and less crowded. Ok, the shops are smaller and you don't have as many choices, but in London, the shops are gigantic and one is so spoilt with choices and becoming so stressed being inside a messy huge store !!I ended up having no idea where to start looking!

I am panicking! End of December is here! I have not yet written a single essay! How come time flies even quicker during holiday?
My December was filled with GRE, Depression, Xmas shopping, SEX AND THE CITY (I am now an addict of the show, started watching from Season 1...now onto Season 4) and little bit of work!
