Arcadia England

The last few weeks have probably vanished in a flash. Think back on all the anxieties you managed to overcame, the challenges you met, the precious knowledge you’ve gained by living/working/studying in London.

Now's a good time to start thinking what your London summer meta-narrative is going to be: not just what you’ll tell your parents and your friends, but what are you able to tell yourself about the insights and impact of your eight weeks here? Look back over your blogs, your Instagrams, your Facebook posts; add what you’ve read, discussed in class, written and researched through assignments, the sights (and smells!) you’ve observed, the times when you surprised yourself, got lost, explored a park or a street or a museum on your own. How can you weave it together to create a coherent story?

Don’t let your London summer memories fade away!"

You’ve probably lived more intensively during these last few weeks than for some time. The personal growth will have been correspondingly accelerated, so you owe it to yourself to think about this for a while in order to capture the highlights in knowledge, understanding and self-awareness.

Blog of blogs, meta-story, prequel to sequel: go on – give it a few minutes’ thought and see how you can pull it all together!

If you come up with something you’re pleased with, share it with us – we’d be delighted to showcase what summer ’15 in London meant to you.
