Week 5

This is week was BUSY! We had something going on every night! 

Monday we had our usual class time, and went to the Wallace collection to see some Gainsborough paintings. My group had FHE with George and Leslie Nelson, which was a good break. Especially because they gave us treats! We also had our movie night for our Humanities class. Jane Austen's Regrets. It was really good!

I  came up to my bed from the movie and saw a lovely display of heart balloons, candy and a card for me!

I was asked on a Valentine's date for Saturday night. I had to meet them at 4:30 for a surprise! There were a lot of people asked. It ended up being half the group asked the other half of the girls...and 3 guys. 

Tuesday we had class, went to the British Museum for a lesson of Greek Theatre! And then we went to  WICKED!! I was so excited all day long. We had pretty good seats to start out with, but since the theater wasn't sold out a group of us moved closer! I ended up having ground floor, center, 9th row seats! It was the best!

Kayla and I in our 9th row seats. :)

I don't want to leave OZ. :(

When we left we even got pictures with Fiyero! Thanks to chasing him down toward the Tube station...

Wednesday we did a day trip to Cambridge and saw King's College Church. We hung around the town for a few hours, Kayla and I saw "The Impossible", then we all went to Evensong in King's Church. It was a beautiful cathedral! It was definitely a different experience going to a Anglican worship service...It was cool none the less!

Thursday we had class again. And did homework as usual. But at night we were able to go to a lecture on Greek theater.

Friday we toured Westminster Cathedral. It is gorgeous! That must have been a long walk for Kate Middleton. :) At night we saw a student production of scenes from "A Winter's Tale." They were able to open the Globe Theater (which is usual closed at this time of year). 

Posin' at the Globe!

Saturday we had our London Walk and did some homework. Then I had my Valentine's Date! I knocked on that door behind us and there was McKenna! I had no idea she asked me. It was so fun because everyone was involved! Even the professors and their wives. :) The tables were decorated with Valentine decor, and we all had pizza together. Then we split off into groups (our group was still pretty big) and got some dessert!

Our group went to Scoop for dessert. They have the best crepes with Nutella and gelato! 

My bubble!

After we got dessert, our group went on the London Eye! It was absolutely gorgeous! We were able to have a tube just for our group. So what do we naturally do? Have a dance party!

The view from the London Eye!

Me and McKenna after the London Eye! She is seriously the best. I love her! I am so glad that she took me on this "Date!"

It was a very busy, but incredibly fun week! :)
