What to see?

What to see, oh what to see? Now that London is just around the corner (about 5 days away), I'm having to seriously think about what shows I want to see on West End while I'm there. It's hard just thinking about it, because there are so many shows currently running. I already know that one show is a guarantee, and that show is Playhouse Disney Live on Tour. I'm going to see Blake in the show, and I am beyond excited. I honestly can't wait.

As far as West End shows go, I have seriously been considering 4 shows, and those 4 shows are Hairspray, Billy Elliot, Grease, and Dirty Dancing the Musical, the latter of which I am most excited about, and is most likely going to become a deffinite! I just hope that they don't mess up my image of the movie because, I mean, it is a classic! But the show does have one check for it so far in my book. I got a brochure for the show, and I saw that the 2 actors who play Johhny and Babyreally lo0ok like Patrick Swayze and Jennifer Grey from the movie. Billy Elliot seems like a good show. It's a dancing show (the musical is based off of the movie), so how bad can it be exactly? Hahaha. Well, we'll see. And if I end up seeing Grease and Hairspray, I just hope that they don't mess up on those 2 either.

I'm just really excited that I'm going to be in England overall. London is probably one of my most favorite places in the world, and I am just so excited to go back there again. There's just something about it. I just can't put my finger on it.

Instead of typing out this blog as I think of it, I'm actually writing it out first on paper. How's that for a change, huh? I bet you're wondering what I'm doing as I'm writing this blog. Ok. I bet you're not. Well, too bad. I'm going to tell you anyway. I'm actually watching a movie. Father of the Bride. I really love that movie. It's a good one. At least, I think so. Maybe tomorrow I'll watch Father of the Bride, Part II since I don't have class tomorrow. What do you think? haha.

But what do you think of my choices of shows to see on West End while I'm in London? There are other choices if you guys don't think too highly of those.

Until next time...

Next Week

I am so excited and cannot wait until next week.

Next week, when I am in London, my very good friend Blake will be there too performing with Playhouse Disney Live, and I am going to see it. I am so excited, because I cannot remember the last time I saw Blake.

And on top of that... I was talking to him earlier today on IM, and he said that I will actually be the first person that has visited him while he was on tour with the show. How cool is that? I don't know about you, but I think that that is a huge honor!


More to come later. I just had to express my joy!

I finally made it!!!

I finally made it. After a long 8 hour flight, I am now here in England. I don't know why, but I actually couldn't sleep that much. I guess I have never really been one to sleep on airplanes.

After we got off the airplane and went through customs, we were in for a long almost 3 and a half hour bus ride, which was not so nice.

But now we are here at the beautiful and gorgeous Harlaxton Manor in Grantham, England. I have only been at this place for about 2 hours, and I already know that I love it. Our rooms are ok, but the place is absolutely beautiful!

I will be here for a month, so, for the next month, my blogs will be coming to you from a whole different country! Just imagine that as you read them. I just think that's so freakin' sweet.

Anyway. I know that this blog seems absolutely pointless. It's just that I wanted to let people know that I got here safe!

Until next time!
