The Globe Theatre

On Thursday I was lucky enough to go to the Globe Theatre with my English class.
It was a long day (eight hours of driving and 3 hours of standing), but it was worth it!


the beautiful set

I love that the theatre is so authentic.

Hannah and Leah - two American beauties

I ate lunch outside the Tate modern with some friends (from the left):

Buddy Dorm Meal

Due to the new dorm styles this year (all first years or all second years instead of mixed) and so we started a buddy dorm system.
Basically a second year dorm is paired up with a first year dorm with the intention that the second years will look out for the first years.
I have a pretty awesome buddy dorm!

And last week, we had a meal together. We all went to our houseparent's house and cooked and ate and laughed together. It was wonderful.

I can't seem to upload any photos of the food, but it was delicious.

However, here is our beautiful cake:

Here is one of my buddy-dormies. Hannah (Italy/Austria)

The site. So beautiful!

One night we had a bonfire and everyone sang their national anthem.
These are the Germans.


Playing an amazing game called 'ninja'. I wasn't very good, but had so much fun playing and watching.

The three guys on the right are in my house: Hans (the Netherlands), Sam (Britain) and Ollie (Wales)
