| ok so i dont have too much time to update before class but i'll try real fast....highlights of the past week:
1) SEEING GUYS AND DOLLS LAST NIGHT. it was incredible.
front row. i was like 5 feet from Ewan McGregor. Seriously
the show was fabuloussssss and last night was a lot of fun yay :)
2) this weekend Meghan Ferrick visited and I didnt really know her at
all before but we ended up hanging out cause she was staying with Natty
and Kate and we sightseed a lot and went out at night and it was a
tonnn of fun and shes really super awesome and it was great :)
3) saturday night kate convinced us all to go out even though we were
being super lazy and we went to this place Bar Rumba and it was
probably the funnest night ive had here so fast...we danced for a
longggg time and lots of guys sketched on us and the music was AMAZING
(throwback to the 90s rap, for alot of the time)....and it was
great...and on the way home we talked to two lesbians for like 30
minutes who were super nice and stuff and then we ran into these two
black british dudes who were also very nice but kind of sketchy and
made some pretty sketchy comments that i really shouldnt write on
here...good times/
4) i went to the Diwali celebration (diwali is the biggest hindu
holiday of the year) and there must have been liek 10,000 indians in
trafalgar square....it was really awesome and there was dancing and
music and all kinds of stuff. and then we went and had dinner at
The Woodlands which is a South Indian chain restaurant from india and
it was sooooooooooooooo YUM.
5) hmmm other than that, the biggest highlights of my week have been
the 'stros games :) though they lost last night which was sad,
but whatever, world series HERE WE COME.

| sooo...the weekend is over...its monday morning and i was supposed to
meet jess at the library but im clearly still sitting here doing
nothing and now i'm debating if i want to go at all! haha wow i
SUCK. anyways...recap of the weekend:
Friday we had a tour of christopher wren churches which was pretty cool
but we didnt actually go inside and tour st. pauls which i definitely
want to do at some point. the next time i have a warm free day i
plan to climb to the top of the dome. friday night we went out to
this restaurant called chowki...it was this fancy indian place and the
atmosphere and stuff was reallly nice and the food was ok, but i wasnt
THAT impressed with the food. i reallllly need to eat out more
and find myself a really good indian place. then we went to the
sports cafe to watch the bosox sadly lose to the white sox :( needless
to say, noone was too thrilled after that. then kelly and i went
to this bar called Zoo with some friends of hers from back when she
went to high school in london....we didnt stay too long but i chatted
with one friend eric, who goes to bowdoin and knows halp's bf alden! oh
and at sports cafe we met this dude named andy from tufts who is on the
same program as halp's bff from home molly! so yeah...its a small world
out here :)
then saturday we booked our tickets to edinburgh...nov 16-19
(wed-sat)...i also discovered that the harry potter premier in
leicester square is on nov 6 WHEN I WILL BE IN SPAIN. im sooo sad
about that. saturday night the girls decided to take it easy and
have a chill movie/wine night. we started off with two bottles of
wine and playing some asshole and spoons...that turned into two more
bottles of wine which we downed extremely quickly...and then ahmed told
us the govy kids were coming over so we went back to the store and got
another bottle of white wine and a box of red wine. yes. i
bought boxed wine in london, ugh. then our random tufts friends
came over and i hung out with molly and i vaguely remember talking to
halp on the phone?! yeah...that was a rough night. i wont
be drinking wine for awhile....enough said.
so now for the biggest dissapointment/excitement of the weekend:
LAST NIGHT'S 18 INNING ASTROS GAME!!!!!! heres how my night
progressed: i check the score in the 2nd inning and its
0-0. then in the 5th its 0-5 braves. then i started
watching dirty dancing and get a frantic phone call from my brother
saying that ausmus just hit the GAME TYING homer in the bottom of the
ninth!??! then i call my bro back and its top of the 12th. then i
wait and wait and wait for his phone call to tell me the game's
over. ahmed comes upstairs and tells me that its the 18TH
INNING. SHIT. and then my bro calls to say the game is over
with chris burke's solo walk-off homer. UGHHHHH!!! im sooo happy
they won in such dramatic fashion but i cant BELIEVE that i didnt see
any of it! im considering buying the tape. hahaha. anyways, that
being said:
GO ASTROS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

| UGH. we just had a two hour class with our dartmouth
prof...now we have time for lunch and then at 2 p.m. we have a lecture
from some woman about the Christopher Wren churches and stuff....AND i
forgot to do the reading for the lecture. hahaha i SUCK.
in other news...sophie spencer was here yesterday! she got in yesterday
evening and all the girls had a fantastic dinner cooked by kel and jess
and then we all hung out and went to the corner store for munchies and
watched scrubs and just hung out....good times. p.s. scrubs is
the greatest show ever.
oh and the astros won. that is all. :)
