of art, shakespeare, and crossing the street

So crossing the street here is really hard, and I am not joking. I will turn my head to the opposite way I need to be looking and so I am met with honking horns and swerving cars. Hopefully I will get it down soon so that I make it back to the states alive...

We saw "Children's Hour" with all of these famous people in it (I don't feel like listing them). It was an awesome production. But it was kind of funny because their American accents were not very good, especially Keira Knightley's. She would slip in and out of it and it messed with her acting. But when you're Keira Knightley, I guess those things don't matter as much. Even though there were all these famous people in the cast, the best part of the show was the woman who played Mary. Supposedly she is 26, but she was totally convincing as little girl. We waited at the stage door to get autographs and stuff. Keira Knightley ended up writing half her autograph on my King Lear book, whoops...

We did some sight seeing, and I am not going to talk about that, because everyone has been a tourist and knows how those things go. I've been trying to cook, and it is hard living on your own and buying all your own food. So far I have cooked chicken, pasta, and frittatas. Things have gone well so far, I guess. Here are some pics!

veggie and cheese frittata!

this is a really terrible pic of Keira Knightley, but it's the best I've got!

We've just started classes this week. My art history class is great! We go to museums and sit down in front of paintings and discuss them, fabulous! Shakespeare is Shakespeare and so therefore it is awesome. My voice teacher is really cool and I think she really knows her stuff. That's all I feel like writing and I don't feel like making it fancy because I am tired and want to go to bed. So, goodnight!
