Today's Gifts From God

*warning: this is one of those days where something not good happened and then it was sorted but following that several small things happened which normally would be okay but under the circumstances makes you upset.so these good things will include...lows*

1. i was upset this morning so like the girl i am turning into, i went to get my hair done because it makes me feel better. it did...kinda. but it was still nice. love my hair straight! it didnt make me feel as good as it normally would though, but it helped a bit.
2. to cheer myself up i went to my fav pub in london for lunch. it's like a mini tradition during my time here...go to the Dickens Tavern for lunch. havent done it in a few days though. it did cheer me up a little but...i was reading one of the shopaholic books, and it was an emotional kinda part of the book, with the husband getting mad at her, her sister not wanting anything to do with her...and she cried in it and...yeah, i didnt start crying crying, but tears did come out. however, it was nice sit there and read my book and eat my sausage and mash...it's a nice pub!
3. went to see the King Henry VIII exibition at the british library. seems weird to me to celebrate the 500th anniversary of the accesion to the throne of a guy who killed 2(?) of his...6 wives, but hey, he was their king lol JK. it was pretty cool. it turns out that anne boleyn was not overly beautiful or anything...just "standard." how cool is that? she got a king chasing after her, wanting to marry her and breaking off from rome, from the catholic religion just to get an annulment/divorce from his first wive to marry her...all on her personality and wit. u have to admire that. you also have to say...at least King Henry VIII was not shallow you know?
4. went to see "Wicked" for the 2nd time since I've been here. so so so good!wow...i bought the soundtrack from the original cast, and it wont be as great as the girl singing tonight...i am in love with her voice(it was the understudy again. she is amazing!). i was a little teary by the end though. granted, i've been teary this whole day, but it is such an amazing play! it...ties for first place with the Lion King.
5. had dinner at Garfunkels: chicken tikka masala. spicy but good...had to hold back the tears again though...almost had a crying fit, but i held it together.
