Tropic Thunder

Last night was the Tropic Thunder movie premier in London. Mark, my program director, had sent out an email with what was going on in London this week and at the very bottom was on small little note saying "oh yes, perhaps you might be interested in the Tropic Thunder premier in Leicester Square Tuesday".

After class on Tuesday Rochelle and I grabbed a bite to eat and then headed to Leicester Square. When we got there the square was already filled with other fans waiting to see the stars arrive. The two of us found a spot close to the entrance of the theatre and a little while later the stars began showing up. We got to see Ben Stiller, Jack Black, and Robert Downy Jr. They were so close we could touch them!There was a singer there named Sam Sparro, the people around me knew him pretty well but he was new to me. There were a lot of other people that would arrive and the cameras would flash, but I had no idea who they all were.




It is also fashion week in London right now. Once I got back to Vandon House, one of my friends who is a fashion student at the London College of Fashion invited me to an after fashion week party. We got all dressed up and headed out.
When we got there, people were dressed anywhere from jeans and a jacket to formal dresses. It looked like one woman there was wearing a wedding dress! My drink even came in a real pinapple! We did lots of people watching and were quite entertained. We also realized that British guys dance like big goofs!
