my life, lately

Okay. Time for a big entry to get myself caught up. I don't even remember the last time I legitimately wrote in this thing.

Alrighty. So.

Last monday: No second Improv Show. That's fine. We went to a wonderful Vegetarian place for food. Best nachos I've ever had. Saw Spring Awakening. ONSTAGE! Lovely. I sat next to Georg and Anna and Ilse And maybe a couple other people. But afterwards we were walking back to the Tube and saw where the stage door was. THere were already people standing there so It was like, well, what the heck. So we waited afterwards and met Charlotte Wakefield (Wendla) and Jamie Blakely (Hanschen) Thea, Aneuirin (I don't know how you spell his name) Bernard (MELCHIOR). He was so nice! actually talked to us and it was cool. During the performance we there were some technical problems. Some light thing started buzzing loudly during I believe and During MIrror Blue night (I think) The lights started flickering wierd. oh well. ANYWAY after we met them we were walking towards the tube station and clare was like "Maybe I should ask them out for a drink" I was like.... what???? And then she goes "Screw it, I'm only in London till tomorrow". So we left and went abck and she wasked them out for a drink, they couldnt becausee of the show or something, but they were really nice about it. Wonderful. We ended up staying at a hostel in London right by Kings Cross, Sleeping in our Clothes, and getting 4 hours of sleep. But It all worked out.

Last Tuesday: Took the Eurostar over to FRANCE!!! When I met up with my family, katie nearly attacked me. We went to the Shakespeare and CO. bookstore. Did a few museums, notre Dame. Orsay. I didn't want to do 4 museums in a day, but I didn't realize we had 2 day museum passes. Oh well. Okay. so then That night we went to L'Illusion Comique: The Illusion at the COmedie Frances. It was wierd. And I didn't understand hardly wny of it, but oh well.

Last Wed: Clare left early in the morning. Sad day. But then We weent to the Lourve, Woo Mona Lisa and a michaelangelo sculpture. Got there early, which was nice. Did the Monet Water Lillies musem thing. I accidentally left the flash on my camera so that was no good. I got yelled at. Musee D'Orsay was next. then we went to VersailleS! It was BEAUTIFUL!!! was goofy with sisters and everyone there. fun stuff. Um....... I dont remember what we did for dinner. OH We went to The eiffel tower just to tkae picutres and then to the Arc D' Triumph.

Last Thursday: Spent the day basically lounding around. And it rained a bit. Went to Moulin Rouge, got somee yummy bread at a patissere. Vionesse. Went back to around Notra Dame. I thought It would be really funny if I jumped up on Katie and dad. So I ran over to them, Yelled "Wooooooooooo!" and slipped and fell on my butt instead. It was hilarious. And It actually didn't hurt. But then We weent to the Lafeyette GAlleries. WThen we went up the Eiffell Tower!!1! Oh katie and I saw some pigeons doing it. It was awkwardly hilarious. Yeah UP the Eiffell Tower. Beautiful Then mom and dad took us out to this really nice restuaraunt and there were some other people there from washington. CRAZYYYYY.

Friday: Up early and ready to catch the plane Icky. flight was good. Got into London, got oyster cards and got to the Hotel. Um. i went home to grab stuff, laura and mom came with me. The Twilight DVD didn't wrk in my computer. Le sad. what did we do that day? I dont even remember. found a pub, wasn't that good. I basically spent the next four days at the hotel with my family.

Satuday: I stayed in to Work on stuff, and family went to buckingham palace and big ben and such. Met up to meet Julia and her husband and went to Covent Garden. There as this wonderful String band playing. very cool and energetic and fun to watch. That night... weeee........ um..... I dont rememebr again. Pizza Express maybe? I dont remember.

Sunday: Took Laura to the Comedy Club, so that was the night we went to Pizza Express. Daddy agreed with me about how wonderful the Lasagna is. I introduced my family to Minstrels. They Liked them. FAmily did St. Pauls in the Morning, and we met up at Westminster for Evensong. Hung out around Picadilly CIrcus and then ate and then comedy Club.

Monday: SChool. Gross. We saw grease that night. OH.maybe we did O'neills that night??

Tuesday: Sainsburys for food. my school for lunch. I had class, and then we went to my house for dinner. Fun stuff.

Wed. WE SAW THE LION KING!!!!!! My parents tried to april fools me that we had got the wrong tickets, and it worked. We didn't have time for dinner, and it took em a while to pretend like I knew exactly where I was going, because I didn't. Anyway, it was really cool, and really wonderful to experience with my family. I had to say goodbye to them on the tube, which sucked. but, oh well. Then I had to go write a paper. OHHHHHHh we argued with our Prof on wed. about the due date for our paper. He clearly said "we'll see where you're at on wed." and then denied saying that so...... Leah fought it. and we got our journals back. no good. I got a b. Icky. OH i also brough my parents 10000 books to take back for me. fun stuff.

Thusday: Early Morning Shakepeare. Paper writing. and Museum Visisting.

Friday: Kew Gardens. Cool. As Im walking around with people, I was listening to my pod. I said to Sarah "You know who I love? Jason Mraz". And she goes "really, he's playing here tomorrow night.

WHAT??????? I want to go!!!!!!

So we called the theatre, there were still tickets. We went to O'Neills with Bethany and Sarah called and ordered 3 tickets. One for me, one for sarah, and onr for sara. It's confusing, I know. BUT!!!!! JASON MRAZ!!!!

Saruday: WINDSOR CASTLE. Sara and I left a little after 8, got some food at the train station, and got out to windsor about 10:30. We didn't go in, but we saw it. It was pretty. we went up "The long Walk" and had lunch there.



Walked back, went over to eton College, got back to the train station, back to waterloo, Jubilee line to Green Park, Walked green Park to Hyde Park Corner, hopped on the Picadilly and then over to Hammersmith. EEEEEKKKKK.

We waited wth this guy and girl who were pretty chill. Pretty funny. They'd seen Jason Mraz Before. So.... whatver.We had standing room in the back. Whatever. It's Jason Mraz. I knew about 2/3 of the songs. He only played for about an hour and a half, so I was bummed about that. But. Like I said, It's Jason Mraz. I think My favorite part was when the band went into the audience



Um yeah. The people in th chairs in fron of us stood up, so we couldn't see. I got a cute bag. It's got a butterfly and a guitar on it. I spent a lot of money yesterday. It's okay though. Windsor was good and Jason Mraz is cool. I got sunburned though.

SO today, I think Nicole and I are going into town to look at getting our haircut. Scary.
