Happy Birthday Mum! The big 5-0!!! Woot woot!
Only had Mythology today, so that was nice. Afterwards, Allyson and I went to the huge mall here. Surprisingly it is a Westfield mall. I should have brought my gift cards. It is a giant mall. It is filled with designer stores though, so not like I would buy anything there. We went there to get milkshakes from this store that we heard was like Moo Moo’s in Oxford. After searching forever, we finally found Sblended. I ordered a Ferraro Rocher shake. Loved it! Allyson wanted a Bueno Bar shake, but they were out, so she got a Kit Kat Senses shake. She didn’t like it as much.

We then went to Leicester Square and saw them setting up for the premiere of Alice in Wonderland. I am so sad that we are not going to be in London tomorrow for the premiere (we are going to Wales tomorrow). I am soooo sad!!!

We went to Primark before dinner. We bought lots of fun accessories to go with our outfits for the Mika concert on Monday. Let’s just say I will be wearing hot pink leg warmers. Pictures to come.

After dinner we went with the Centre group to Twelfth Night. Our seats were pretty crappy. Everyone’s ticket said restricted. I was lucky enough to see the stage, but a lot of the students couldn’t see a thing. They tried to make them feel better about it by saying that it is better to just listen to the lines being recited. Not true! Such a lame attempt to cover up their cheap purchase of tickets. The worst part was that all the professors and their families got clear view seats, leaving the students, who paid more money to be in the program, with the crappy seats. Half of the class slept through the performance, because they felt that it was a waste of their time and money. I did like the performance though. I couldn’t see a portion of the stage, but from what I did see, the stage activity really did add to the performance. The actors were good and there was a lot of humor in the play. I had previously seen Twelfth Night two or three other times, but this was my favorite performance. Good fun.
