Only second year, it sucks that it's a six year course but being a student in London is brilliant so it's ok.
I live in Fulham which is West London, my university is next to the Royal Albert Hall and the main museums (natural history, science, Victoria and Albert) which is a pretty nice area so on my daily walk in I go through some of the most expensive streets in the world. Sightings of famous people are pretty common, I have seen Jeremy Irons walking his dogs a few times and friends have seen Kiera Knightley, Sienna Miller and Hugh grant pretty often.
