We woke up on a better note, thank God. Enough rest and today we were supposed to go down HSBC to open our bank accounts. Since we woke up at 6am, we chatted with friends & family back home on MSN, had breakfast and then decided to take a walk around our area, and saw Tower of London and Tower Bridge. The last time I was here was 10 years ago so it's a good time to revisit again :)

Alex at HSBC was a friendly girl and I can't believe it, we emerged as HSBC Premier Banking customers even tho' obviously we didn't qualify. We decided to take a walk down London Wall to look for our office location coz we don't wanna be late on Monday. Guess what the numbering of buildings are not in order! We walked up and down London Wall 4 times looking for #125 but somehow the street ended at #75, Deutsche Bank. We finally found it 1.5h later (!!), located perpendicular to the street we were walking up and down on! Anyways.. ok glad to find it. Can't imagine spending 1.5h looking for it on Monday. What an impression that'd make on our managers.

We were so hungry by the time we were done. Took train down to Oxford Circus to shop. Had lunch at Mac coz not sure where else plus we were so hungry so we chose whatever's familiar to us. We shopped at Zara, Mango, H&M, Topshop mainly and were super tired at the end of the day.
