Yesterday I had the privilege of attending a lecture on human migration and trafficking at the British Museum. I LOVE this place. I LOVE this place as much as I LOVE butterflies, scallops, and sinigang. One of the discussants for the talk was my MPhil/PhD supervisor. There were other professors from Imperial College and Goldsmiths debating about the ill effects and benefits resulting from migration of sex workers into the UK.
After the lecture I stopped to see the Rosetta Stone. Every time I see it, I'm just amazed that it's in front of me, such a beautiful artifact that helped decipher ancient Egyptian hieroglyphics. These are moments I adore the most, the moments that make me adore being in London.

How many languages did you absorb from the Rosetta Stone?
ReplyDeleteNice pic!
You know the commercials make you think you'd absorb a lot right? Plus they're everywhere these days in those mall kiosks. :P
