Well, there are only four more weeks to go! I have my suitcases, my winter coats are dry cleaned, I've acquired some more movement clothes, and I have The List of things to pack, buy, and do. I'm not all ready, but I am so excited. There's still a lot to do-- I have to "familiarise" myself with Sonnet 96 (my goal is to memorise it before I get there) and read a library's worth of plays.
I'm not concerned, I have time, but it's still something I must do.
Every time London comes up in conversation with someone new (and this happens a lot), they tell me how lucky I am to be studying theatre in London. "Oh yes," I always say. "Trust me, I know!" And I do. I get to live-- subsidised-- in a city I could never otherwise afford to live in. I get to study stage combat, historical dance, British theatre, and so on. I will be required to go see plays! That's like being required to pet a kitten or eat chocolate... and LDA will pay for my admission.
Trust me, I know how lucky I am.
