It would be an exaggeration to say that it has been a dream of mine to see Avenue Q performed. But I've been really keen to see it ever since Marena recommended it and Esther gave me the music. This show was absolutely amazing totally awesome genius fun stuff.
Andy, Sea Bass, and I went to the Friday matinee at the Noels Coward Theater in London's West End Theatre District. We had front row seats--so close you could see the spit fly from the actor's mouths. So close you could see the stitches on the puppets' faces. So close you had to move your head from side to side to follow the action across the stage.
This show was so much fun. I couldn't stop smiling or singing along (which was probably a bit distracting for the person next to me).

Ultimate Update
Traveling around after finals means that I have so much to share, but limited computer access. Has it been only a week and a half since I sat my last exam? In the coming hours/days/sometime, I'll be updating with my lastest adventures. Enjoy.
Happy Christmas Eve!!

Finals Schminals
Why am I doing all this fun stuff in addition to (instead of?) studying for my exams which are worth between 50%-100% of my grade? I'll tell you why...
I am a bad student.
But an awesome tourist.

Talbot Rice Gallery
You Are Here!
Today was the last day of You Are Here!, a course for international students who would like to get to know the Talbot Rice Gallery. Good times.
A group shot of us exploring the space with our bodies, or something like that.
Yoshiko lying down in the Monika Sosnowska exhibit.
Every Wednesday afternoon we would meet in the gallery and learn and talk and dance and run. I learned that the gallery was formerly a natural history museum and was frequented by Charles Darwin. There was also a pet puma that roamed around before it became a specimen. We wrote storied to go with one of Monika Sosnowka's miniature architectural installations, and made maps of 'our' Edinburgh.

Comma-phile
While proofreading my final paper for Natural Hazards ('Was the Parkfield earthquake experiment a failure?'), it was brought to my attention that I am a comma-phile. I love that little booger.
