On Monday night I decided that although I had been to a few plays here in London, I needed to go see a musical. A found a couple people in the flat who were were going to see Avenue Q. I tagged along with them and it was one of the best decisions I ever made. I LOVED it. 2 hours of sitting there, laughing my ass of to the point of near tears. The musical is actually a bunch of puppets, mixed in with a couple other actual people, singing about the hardships of life. It was definitely a satire on the American dream and the American way of life. Some of the songs that these puppets sang included "The Internet is for Porn", "Everyone's A Little Bit Racist", "If You Were Gay", and "I Wish I Could Go Back to College". Definitely not your standard musical, but nonetheless it was brilliant.
Tuesday I went on a tour of Bavaria, it was basically a pub crawl with a tour guide. I went to a couple pubs off the beaten path and it was a lot of fun. I really liked that I went on this pub crawl with a group of people that I hadn't gotten a chance to get to know that well yet. As you'd expect, they were great. After the pub crawl I met back up with the rest of the crew to celebrate Molly and Emily's birthdays. We had a great time celebrating with them. Almost too good of a time, I had to sit through a 3 hour discussion on the role of the Monarchy with a pounding headache and constantly feeling like I was gonna puke.
I'm heading out right now to go see Twelfth Night. I'm really excited to see it. I suck at Shakespeare so I'll prolly be really confused, but I'm hoping that I can figure it out, and really enjoy the play. I'll let you know how it goes. I'm leaving for Switzerland tomorrow so if I don't get a chance to post again, have a good weekend.
