On Wednesday we didn’t have to go on our weekly field trip so I worked on a paper for most of the day and went grocery shopping. Later that night I went with some of the people from my program to the England vs Netherland game at Wembley. We didn’t purchase tickets beforehand so we had to get them at the stadium. They weren’t the best seats, but it was still really cool! I bought an England scarf to wear during the game before. The game was pretty exciting, especially towards the end of it. Early in the game the Netherlands scored two goals right after each other. With about 10 minutes to go in the game about half of the people I went with decided to leave early to beat the crowd. Right after they left England came back to score two more goals! Unfortunately, the Netherlands scored one more goal to win it. The stadium seats about 93,000 people! It was a really cool experience!
On Thursday I met up with Curtis and we went to Garfunkel’s for lunch. I had a chicken barbeque pizza and he had an omelet. Our waiter was really friendly and he was talking to us about wanting to move to the US. When he asked what the weather was like in Indiana he was really excited because he loves snow! We also went to Dorothy Perkins to shop after lunch. From there I went straight to British Life and Culture. The rest of the night I spend relaxing and went to bed early.
On Friday I had British Life and Culture and we watched the movie Bend it Like Beckham. It is so weird being about to pick up on all the little things that happen in British movies now. I love it! I went back to my flat to eat lunch and then from there I went to Curtis’ flat. He helped me edit one of my papers for art history and I trimmed his hair for the first time with clippers! We went to get half priced tickets for Thriller Live. Before the show we ate at Giraffe! It was very good! We are planning on going back on Tuesday! Thriller was different from what I expected it to be, but still very good! Here is a preview:
