Big Macs and Jane Austen

I am sad to report that in the last 2 days I have been to McDonalds twice. Once just for a Mcflurry and the other time for lunch. After 4 hours of class yesterday, all Kaitlin and I wanted were Big Macs. That really hit the spot for both of us! Such a great idea! 

Then, it was off to the National Portrait Gallery! Such a fun experience to see the faces of men and women that we've been reading about in our history class! We also saw Charles Dixens, Tennyson, The Bronte sisters, Isaac Newton, Jane Austen and so many other important faces! It was awesome! Such a fun experience!

Sadly, the "Gay Icons" exhibit was 5 pounds. We were bummed. haha

After the museum, we had our own little "tube adventure." While we were in the Charring Cross station (that's the station where I fell down the stairs last week) one of the most attractive men I have ever seen walked over and stood next to us. At this point Kaitlin and I were kinda hyper and could not stop laughing. Looking back on the situation, we looked like stupid, loud american teenagers. Awesome. 

When our train finally arrived, we got on and were standing right next to this man. (He really was gorgeous! Kaitlin has been describing him as life changing! haha) We were talking about how we were going to get back to the center and I said that we should just stay on the train until the Oxford Circus stop and then switch to the central line. Well, turns out, that was with the train going to opposite direction. We should've gotten off at Embankment, the very next stop, which is where that beautiful man got off the train. We just stood there and watched him walk away. (I was mostly laughing and trying not to watch. Kaitlin had her eyes on him the entire time!) 

Then we realized we were going the wrong direction. We ended up running around and changing trains a lot more than we originally wanted to. It was quite the adventure to get home. Good times!

After dinner, our group headed to Regents Park to see the Importance of Being Ernest in the Open Air Theater! What a great show! It really is one of my favorite plays! We were all cracking up most of the show and during the intermission as well, thanks to Diana making me laugh super hard all the time! 

It was a fun day! Today, is homework and class day. Midterms are on thursday and we have a day trip on wednesday so things are kinda crazy and a little stressful. 

Love you all! Sorry there aren't any pictures. Our internet really struggles here. Luckily, we're getting an upgrade soon! That was the best news of my life! haha
