fail

horrible time getting to kings cross/st pancras to get my eurostar tickets again.

I left at 8:10. All well and good. Morden Via Bank, I think is what I did.

1.)As I got Camden Town I hear the announcement that Kings Cross is closed due to overcrowding

**SO, at Euston, I transfer to just go to Kennington VIa Charing Cross. Whatever. It's nowhere near kings cross, but i figureed it would be better than nothing.

2.) Get up and over to the Platform, and I hear the announcement that Kings CRoss is now Open

** so i turn around and go back down the escalator.

3) First train was crowded, so I wait.

4.) I get off at kings cross and look for the sings to St. Pancras. I headed into one of the little hallways that connects the Northbound and Southbound platforms. And then the alarm goes off, the double doors on both sides of me shut. I start freaking out a bit because im like "Am I stuck in the tube?" and an announcer goes "This station is now closed due to an emergency, please exit immediately". So I exited.

5.) It looked like St. Pancras was closed. Everyone else would have been on the tube at that point so i couldn't even call to warn anyone.

6.) I had no idea how to get to school from kings cross. No map.

**I found the map which i did have when I got back to school.

But then I saw St. Pancras and just went there and got our tickets. yay!


Oh. saw king lear tonight. Intense and lots of blood. almost 4 hours long. Paper due tomorrow and I have a test. Oh joy.

and my ipod fell into the toilet today. and I think i ruined it.
