What Horrors Wait for me in This...The Phantom's Opera

BAHHHHH!!!! This post has to be short sweet and to the point as I am definitely facing the music of the night...only its not very pretty. Two weeks of school left and 4 essays to write. It's going to be crazy! I'm in the middle of one now so consider this my quick deflation before I hit the hay.

Desiree, Margaux and I (yep...there they are again) saw the Phantom of the Opera this past Thursday. It was amazing. I've been singing non-stop since. In honor of my favorite music...this is the story of my week:

Masquerade: Like all of the brilliant colors and dancing, so is the city of London during Christmas time. I love walking around the city and after a long day in Chelsea not only was I calmed by the beauty of the houses but also by the charm of the shops. It is a wonderful area where I found a great bookstore and beautiful Christmas cheer.

Prima Donna: I've been very successful shopping lately and feeling very demanding in what I am looking for. Sometimes it's nice to be able to find exactly what you're looking for...even if it is for someone else. Covent Garden is always a great place to feel like a 'star'.

Music of the Night: It's night...I can only hope that the words put into my essay are able to serenade my professors...pfff! I'll be lucky if they're coherent.

Wishing You Were Somehow Here Again: I can't believe it's only 3 weeks until I am home! It's gone by so quickly. I miss my family and friends from home, but I will miss my friends here so much. I can't even think about that right now...

Sorry this is quick! Have to get back to Georgia... Borough Market and all that other jazz! Have a good week!!! Paris this weekend...next post will make up for this short thing ;)

Cheers,
Taylor
