-Frank Lloyd Wright. That quote was on a page of my journal that I wrote on for today, I enjoyed it :D
Well, I was going to go to bed early tonight, but then I didn't get dinner till 9p so that's why I'm typing this out at 12.30 in the morning O.o Oh well, I can sleep this weekend.
Today I needed to print some things, so I stayed at the Centre for a bit after theatre class. I printed some reviews for Betty Blue Eyes, the musical we're going to see with class tomorrow night, and my coach ticket for Dover. I'm super excited for Dover! I don't even know what I'm going to do, being a poor uni student won't help matters, but I can't wait to see the White Cliffs. I leave at 2.30 on Thursday!
My plan when I got back to my room was to switch back and forth between writing a story and doing my Living and Dying reading - when I got bored with one I'd switch and then once I was bored with that one I'd switch back.
Well, I started with the Living and Dying reading, got about halfway through and switched, then didn't switch back. Juliet, my character, just took over and I couldn't write fast enough to get everything down. My characters seem to do that to me at the most inopportune times, I think they plan it.
Then it was time for my CORE group Indian dinner. On the way there, I have never seen a Piccadilly line train so bloody crowded, and I travel on one at least twice a day for classes. It was crazy, good thing I'm not claustrophobic.
When we got to the restaurant, no one knew what they wanted so it took a while to order. I asked what they would recommend for a vegetarian that doesn't like spicy and got that - I can't remember what it was called - it was sweet and cinnamon-y and yummy. I don't think they were ready for quite so many of us - there were 2 groups combined to make a total of 23 people - they were still setting things up as we ordered (plates, napkins, tables, silverware, chairs, you know, things like that). It was fun to be there though - I don't eat Indian food very much at home and it's a huge deal here. Though we didn't get our food until 9 (we got there at 7.30) and they forgot mine at first, it was really good. While waiting for mine, I wanted something to eat so I took a bite of naan (I think that's how you spell it...). I was wondering what was inside it when Elyse told me 'Oh, I think there's meat in that.' I literally froze, I've been a vegetarian long enough that my body wouldn't be able to handle it if I ate meat and I'd get sick, but I decided that one bit wasn't going to kill me. Unfortunately, the bite had turned to glue - I forced myself to swallow it rather than spit it back out. I took one of the meatless ones and ate that, explaining why I'm a vegetarian and why I can't eat meat to some of the guys sitting near me. The naan was yummy, and it was good to dip in the sauce of my food.
After they cleared the dishes, our end of the table noticed that the others were getting shot glasses handed to them. Wondering if they ordered them or something, we saw a waiter coming towards us with a trayful - they were shots of Bailey's. We all drank them like a shot - mine hit the back of my throat kinda hard but it was good. I can see why people like to put it in their coffee or hot chocolate.
Tomorrow we're finally going to see a musical for theatre class - yay! I love musicals :D
Till then,
-Ayra
