July 24th

This entry is for two days ago on the 24th.  Time flies when you're having fun!  Myself, Chole and Sarah Staron first went to the Docklands Museum.  That museum contained so much information and knowledge that I knew nothing about; it was a museum unlike any other I'd been to.  I am used to going to art, science, or history museums, but a Docklands museum was different in itself.

Afterwards Chole and I went to the Tower of London where we saw some torture tools, prison cells, the Tower Bridge, and of course The Crown Jewels.  They were breathtakingly beautiful and well worth the hour we waited to see them.  My body was covered in goosebumps by the time we saw them all; I was blown away.

I gave myself some downtime in the afternoon because that evening a few girls and I attended a musical called Once.  You maybe not be familiar with this production because it originally came out as a relatively small movie, and now it is a musical.  When we showed up we got automatically upgraded to better seats, and the musical itself was quite good.  During intermission they turned the stage into a bar which was fun.

Traversing New York and London by myself has given me more confidence than I already had regarding traveling and more importantly traveling alone.  I now feel more comfortable in taking risks in choosing my future setting for either schooling or the rest of my life.  I think I would be completely comfortable moving across the nation, or the world.  I love the idea of setting up shop somewhere new and discovering a new adventure everyday.
