so this morning we have class! just like a normal thursday. twas fabulous. i also had my last dish crew! PRAISE THE HEAVENS! after class we had some free time! so me and chelsea wanted to get cute dresses because we are hoping to go get tea at kensington palace before we leave. so we went shopping! i love this store called joy (look it up, amazing) so we went to find one! we wanted to get away from the west end because there are so many freaking people here! so we found one over on the south bank by the tate modern. it was perfect, because we were able to get lunch at borough market! it's not as well stocked as it usually is on saturday but it still had good stuff :) i got a sandwich, and i figured this was my last time going.. so i got this chocolate cake thing i have been eyeing. oh my goodness. it was legitimately the most amazing chocolate thing i have ever had in my life. it was like mousse and cake combined because it was so soft and so freaking good. my life is complete now. so after borough we went to joy and it was so great! got lots of goodies :) hehehe. mostly stuff i can wear to church! so that is nice because that is hard to find sometimes. we were planning on going to topshop to look at shoes but we spent too much time in joy and had to get back for the torch relay!!!
the torch came down the street right next to ours today! our cute little neighborhood bayswater :) it was great! me and chelsea got there just in time to get a good spot. we stood for about thirty minutes until stuff started coming. it was kind of like a parade! there were a few buses, two with bands on them... lots of runners/bikers, and lots of vans. it was interesting to look inside and see what they were carrying! one of them had a bunch of people who were waiting for their turn to carry the torch. apparently they switch every 300 meters, which is a lot! but i don't blame them cause it's so dang hot. another van had a TON of torches inside! that was really cool to see. so yeah the torch came, we saw it for like 5 seconds and people went ape shiz crazy and it was awesome. yay! it made me so excited for tomorrow to get all decked out and go watch the opening ceremonies at hyde park! heheh.
after that we had dinner at the centre, then we were off to phantom of the opera! finally i can go to shows again! oh my gosh. guys it was so good. this is the best production i have seen here yet. ahhh. it was soooo good! i love phantom! it has been here for like 25 years! crazy to think my mom saw it in the same theatre with the original cast! i still have the songs stuck in my head. it was amazing!
