Day 27

Today was fantastic. I am in the middle of a game of spades, however, so I will have to write your eyes off about it later. One highlight that needs mentioning, and obsessing over, though, is the fact that Feather and I got to meet none other than: JENNIFER TILLY!

I can die now.

If only we could all look like her when we're 51...

So the rest of the day was pretty amazing too:

woke up early unfortunately, but we ended up lying around that we were almost late to our Backstage Tour & Workshop of the Globe!! yeah, I ended up running as fast as I could from the tube stop to the Globe because of course this was the one thing we COULDN”T be late too! I don’t think I’ve ever run so fast.. a little over a half mile in under 3 minutes through crowds of people, oh and dare I say (don’t look mom) barefoot… fun times. MADE IT! Kristyn was close behind. We got in! Even though they had already started. I had to sit down for a while. whew!

The tour was fine.. learned some history, but the real fun was when we went below to the rehersal rooms. We actually had an “acting” class. MUCH FUN! Did I mention I LOVE theatre! Kristyn and I both want to take the Intro to Acting class at tech in the fall :) we’ll see…

After that we decided to go to Camden which is a big market, but also shops all up and down the streets, punk rock stores next to posh stores next to antiques. It was good just for the experience.. I think that’s the true London that you don’t see all the time :) Got two dresses! And so did Kristyn! We’re set for our weddings when we get back!

Then we came back to chill in the flat and had Christy, Kristen, and Lauren over.. we were all going to work on our assigments/homework together, but after about 5 minutes we all played Spades a new card game! .. for the rest of the night… till we went back out to the theatre where Grasses of a Thousand Colours was playing so we could catch Jennifer Tilly and Wallace Shawn when the came out after the show :)

YAY.

Great Night!!

  1. Hmmm, genetics play a big role in how you will look at 51 – believe or not, both sets of your parents (Feather and Kristyn) have given you some good genes. Skin care, diet, and exercise EVERY DAY of your life also takes its toll. Tee.hee.

    I’m sorry that your London adventure is rapidly coming to an end (but I am looking forward to a big hug soon). You will just have to find a way to enjoy day-to-day living while you save money and plan your next excursion!
