Another Week in London

Its been a little while since I have last updated my blog and it has been a pretty crazy week.  I made it through week 2 of my internship and I'm still really enjoying it.  I've been helping with travel plans so I think that is really going to help me when we start planning trips here.  On Tuesday night, the whole program went out for an Pakastani meal.  It was so good!  It was a little spicy but everything was just so delicious.  We had this giant plate full of grilled BBQ meats from lamb, lamb chops, chicken and fish, then tortilla type shells with all sorts of yummy dipping sauces and deep fat fried veggies and onions.  Then the main course came.  There was chicken, lentil, beef, lamb and vegetable curries, rice and this delicious bread.  I've never eaten this type of food before but I was really impressed.
On Wednesday night, our theatre class went to see The Invisible Man.  It was surprisingly hilarious.  The special effects were awesome too because there would be times that there was no one on stage, but props would be moving all over the place.  We got to sit in the second row and I couldn't believe that I couldn't figure out the special effects.
Thursday night was a good one too.  It is cheap mojito night and a bar in London, so about 15 people from the program ventured out for mojitos.  After we were there for a while we found another international house type place and went there.  There were people from everywhere and karaoke too.  Jason and a few of us girls sang Bad Romance.  Once we were ready to leave we realized the tube was closed and we couldn't find the right bus, so we walked home.  When we finally found Buckingham Palace, everyone was pretty excited to see the Queen's flag flying, meaning that she was in the Palace when we walked by.
