I've got to say, I love love love busy days like the last few I've had. Saturday was, of course, the trip to Cambridge, and then yesterday was the most international day I've had in a while. Well first was play rehearsal for a few hours in the afternoon, which was mostly English. Then that evening my flatmate Adam took me to his Japanese friends' flat, where we all made and then ate some delicious sushi. It was, hands down, the best meal I've had since coming here. (Granted, I haven't yet tried bangers or faggots [wow to both of those...], so the best might actually be still to come! Or not.) After that we went to a salsa lesson hosted by the International Students Society, followed by the salsa dance party, where we tried -- and mostly failed awkwardly -- to put our new salsa skillz to the test. We were far from experts, but it was fun nonetheless.
Yup, and then today I did some reading for my film class during the day. After dinner I went to a film society meeting, and one of the members agreed to film our play next week. She even wants to do a kind of behind-the-scenes story about us, which they'll broadcast on the university station! It's a win-win situation really: we get the free publicity, and she gets clips to put on her video reel (she's studying film and television). Then was rehearsal, of course (we've got it every day now until the show goes up in less than two weeks), which was really fun as usual. And finally, it's JP's (one of the assistant directors) birthday today, so we hung out at the pub for a long while after rehearsal. And now I have to read a bit more and then rest up for class tomorrow! Ohhhhh uni, how I love thee. : )
