Headphone Disco

Oh, I like games...

Before I launch into my schpeal (sp? i think so.) about the Headphone Disco, I decided to include another picture from Scarborough.

I didn't include this the first time, but I realize now that was a mistake. I was in awe of all of the "yellow flowers," aka daffodils, that were growing in and out of every nook and cranny of the castles and churches, despite the heinous weather. I just wanted you to know, so you could be apart of it.

So, Headphone Disco... so far, my favorite "rave" yet. I mean it, too. It was super neat. Just imagine a huge gymnasium-sized bar with loads of people, but zero noise whatsoever. Everyone was given a pair of headphones and you could tune them to 2 competing channels. Some folks would be rocking out to Zeppelin while others were listening to Spice Girls. And you literally just go crazy and dance by yourself. It's hilarious... right up my alley. It was celebratory, so I decided to partake in some early morning delight, aka double Malibu and Diet Coke. Umm, it ended up being 4.20 GBP, so I stuck with just the one. I really try to drink cheaply, but I suppose it slipped my mind last night. Oh well. Here's some pics of the evening. It was totally worth the 5 GBP ticket... I'm telling you. Best dance party ever!

Crazy Aussies (Taylar, Bearyn) & Lindsay... sorry that the picture is on its side, but it won't let me rotate.

Lindsay & Mon-Mon shake your Bon-Bon.

Hey Australia meet New Zealand.

Happy Place.

Today, I woke up five hours after I went to bed... thank you, LB. Then proceeded to head to my crazy awesome church again. I'm telling you, I love this place. It's just my spot. Anglicans and Baptists unite under one roof. Stellar principles. The sermon was about Christ's extravagant friendship, love, and boldness for us, and how we should strive to imitate that extravagance in our own relationships. The sermon was based off of the John 12: 1-11 where Mary poured perfume all over Jesus' feet and wiped his feet with her hair. This was considered risque, but Mary recognized that she had only had opportunity to show Jesus the extent of her love for Him, so she took the only opportunity she had. It didn't matter what everyone thought of Mary for doing what she did; she just wanted Jesus to know how much she loved Him... the point of the sermon was basically knowing how to show people how much you love them. We even launched into a discussion of a personal favorite of mine... LOVE LANGUAGES. Yeah, words of affirmation, babay. Anyway, it was radical.

After church, I went back to my room to pack up to head to Lindsay and Genna's for a day spent working on my Shakespeare essay. I'm almost done now- just have to write the conclusion tomorrow morning. Lindsay decided that she was going to prepare a picnic of fruit and bread and olive oil and cake. It was delicious and wonderful. Happy days. It was the first sunny day we've had in awhile, albeit still a bit nippy. Now, here I am back in my room, really late at night. I keep forgetting that it's 4 am, so I'm going to go to bed now.

How precious is that, Genna Bear?
