More from mid-term

Now, I can't remember if I mentioned this, but Wednesday night Ryan, Megan, Tom, Katie, and myself went to London to see a theatrical production. We went to see "Blue Man Group". If you've never heard of them, they basically don't say anything, they just look at each other and do silly stuff. They were hilarious, and I highly recommend seeing them. We even got our picture taken with the guy afterward. If I ever get pictures up here, I will put them on.

Thursday we went to see Stomp. That was a fantastic show, although it was super super loud. We had great seats, but we also had the stage sound and the speaker sound all at once. And it didn't help that the lady in front of us had the biggest hair EVER, or that they guy beside me practically sat on me the whole time. But it was still a great show. I would love to see more theatre in London. You can get tickets pretty cheap (like, practically the same price as it would be to see a movie).

We didn't do much on Friday, it was a nice, well deserved, lazy day. Then Saturday Ryan suddenly got the urge to do lots and lots of shopping. We went back to Lakeside (the super huge mall that's far away from our house) on the bus, did tons of christmas shopping, then took the train home. We had to sit and listen to a whacko the whole way home fight with his girlfriend. Literally, ever three seconds his phone would ring, he would yell something, hang up and she would call right back. It was kind of funny, but totally not funny at the same time. Lucky for us, the train ride was a lot faster than the bus!! The train still confuses me though. When were were at Lakeside we bought tickets from Trafford Hundred to (what I stupidly assumed was) Romford. Turns out that our tickets were not to Romford, although there is no one to tell you otherwise, you just hop on the next train. By the time we got to Romford, the guy was all mad at us because we didn't buy another ticket (stupid me thought I did buy tickets to Romford) and when I said what happened, he said I would have to take it up with the girl I bought them from. So, what? He wants me to get back on the train and pay again to go and yell at the girl?? Seems like an easy cop out for him to tell me that I am screwed over and too bad for me. Although I suppose we got off easier than we could have. He didn't fine us the 20 pounds it could cost for not having a valid ticket, we just had to pay 1.80 each. Whatever.

We watched a pretty good movie on Saturday too. "Love Actually". Once we started I realized that I had seen at least part of it before. There were some points when Ryan had to cover his eyes, but I really enjoyed it. And I also finished two books this week. I have a new favourite author, Jodi Picoult (I think that's how you spell it). I am addicted to her books. They are sad and exciting and tear jerking.

I just looked outside and realized how dark it is. Not that this is a bad neighbourhood (read between the lines, it is a bad neighbourhood) I don't want to walk outside alone. So, I will continue this later. Love you all!!
