I finally feel like I am living IN London. We went on the best bus tour ever today. We learned so many cool history facts and saw a large majority of the important things in London. Now I want to go back and go IN all of these places. My heart was beating so hard when we passed the Globe and the Rose Theatre. AHHHHHH!!!! I CANNOT WAIT to go back in them. There is SO much to do!!! I suggest if you want to know more about what I saw on the tour to look through my photo album on facebook.

But highlights included Buckingham Palace, Westminster Abbey, Parliament, St. Paul's Cathedral (sight of Mary Poppins Feed the Birds), a sight from Harry Potter, the eye, London Bridge, Tower of London, and tons of museums.
Afterwards we went to BADA and had lunch and then orientation. I am SO excited for classes to start. It's gonna be freakin intense theatre work and a lot of memorizing and Shakespeare (which I am least familiar with). I know I am going to learn a lot, which is awesome. I just hope I have time to travel too!!!
Five of us tried to find our way back to the flats from BADA...and we got LOST! It took us like an hour and 20 minutes. I mean normally it is suppose to take 45 minutes, so I guess it wasn't too bad. I have to leave super early tomorrow though because class starts at 9am every day and get out at 6:15! I have Shakespeare first!
Once we made it back we ate dinner and then read our first play for theatre history....drum roll please.... HEDDA GABLER!!! Shoot me now! (No pun intended). I only spent the last 2 months of my life on that show! lol. We all read it out loud though, so it was kinda fun... I read Tesman. GOODIES :P
I'm EXHAUSTED so I'm off to bed! But I am loving living in London!! SOOOOOO GORGEOUS!!!! AND I got to listen to so many British people speak today.......ahhhh heaven.
