'If I'm asleep, don't let me wake. If this is real, don't let me dream.'



So I noticed Aylia playing Sudoku the other day and said "Urg, i can never figure that silly game out. Egads." And thus she and Geoff taught me how to play, well, mostly Aylia at first and then I started playing and Geoff helped me out. I've "won" three games myself and it's extremely satisfying.

So now, everyday as I'm heading home i snag my evening standard, read the news on the tube and then do the Sudoku. It's rather fun. Thanks London for making the Evening Standard free!! Although, reading the news everyday is getting rather depressing. So, sometimes I just skip right to the Arts section or the Sudoku.

Last night we went to go see a spectacular show called Life As a Dream! You man recognize Dominic West who has been in a few movies (like 300) and that show Wired. He was brilliant, and just so captivating. I loved the show, the production was so good and i really thought all the actors were clear and very believable. I totally got lost in the show. One of the young actors, Rupert Evans is coming to talk to us next week...which everyone is ecstatic about (not only was he a great actor...but he was rather attractive ;) ) So we're all excited.

It's crazy that tomorrow i will have exactly a month until i go home. Egads! It's going to fly by. Especially because next week is break! Off to Ireland for a few days, this time exploring the west coast. I'll be in Shannon for the first two days so if you have any ideas please please i'd love to know. Then off to Galway to see my friends DJ and Jenna.

Must go, Shakespeare calls!
Cheers, T

Ps. My title quote is of course from Life As a Dream which has a beautiful script. I believe it was originally written in Spanish and this recent translation is LOVELY. There are some beautiful speeches :D
