Day #52: Friday, March 1, 2013

 Started my day with a little coffee and some time by myself at a local coffee shop!!!  
I have always thrived when I am WITH OTHERS.  I don't like spending time by myself...I would rather be talking and laughing and goofing off with family and friends.  But the Lord has finally taught me the beauty of spending time by myself.  He has revealed to me how PRECIOUS His friendship is...and how comforting it is to know that I am never alone. Though I may not have another familiar face around me, He is holding my hand every step of the way.  Don't get me wrong...my extroverted self still thirsts for fellowship with others, but I am grateful He has finally grabbed hold of my heart and taught me the value in taking some time to be alone.
 Stood in line for FIVE MINUTES TO GET A TICKET FOR WICKED!!!! My trip to LONDON would have been complete after this fun surprise!!!
Saw the incredible new portrait of Kate Middleton!
 This is for you, Parker!!!
 Piccadilly Circus!
Met Ann Dunn at the Winston House (headquarters for the London study abroad students) and we got lunch to go from an adorable tea shop!
TE AND TATTLE!!!
 Had a little picnic on the stairs in the Winston House!
My hostel for Friday night...
There were three triple bunk beds (9 girls total) in our room...and each of the beds had privacy curtains.  It wasn't a terrible experience, but let's just say I only ended up staying on Friday night, rather than the original plan of Friday and Saturday night!
 I successfully navigated the London Tube...except for this one time when I got off at Charing Cross and accidentally followed the signs to the TRAIN...
 I got to the theater right at 7 so I had a full 30 minutes to just sit and relax before the one and only WICKED!!!
I WAS IN HOG HEAVEN!!!!!!!!!!
Do I resemble Elphie????!
