Winding down...

Hey all,

Well, finals are over, but life has far from calmed down here. This last week has been filled with trying to fit things in that I haven't had the chance to do yet. On Monday, some friends and I went to London (again!), this time to see Camden Town and a show at Shakespeare's Globe Theatre! Camden town was SO COOL!! It's basically a HUGE area with stands where people sell clothes, jewelry, and a whole bunch of other things. I bought a journal there, which is hand crafted from leather, and is beautiful. I'm so excited about it! We spent most of the day in the shops there, but in the afternoon we went to Abbey Road to see the famous Beatles crosswalk (we took a picture on it!), then headed over to the Globe to see Much Ado About Nothing. I officially have a new favourite Shakespeare play! It was phenomenal. The actress that was supposed to play Beatrice was out sick, so they had a woman who played Margaret (a smaller role) in the show go on as Beatrice, and a stage hand go on as Margaret. The whole cast, including the replacement Beatrice, were fantastic!!!
