The Light Show - left it stupidly late, and was in such a panic when i realised i had 2 days left to see the show and both days were sold out. i'd like to think that Anya offering me her members card was some good karma coming back around, but really it's just down to her being such a nice n helpful girl! i got in for free without queuing.

for me the show was definitely on a par with the Mariko Mori 'Rebirth' exhibition i went to see a little while ago, which is saying a lot. i sat in the first room, staring at the first piece, listening to Gold Panda for maybe half an hour. i loved watching the little kids come in the entrance and see the big glittering structure right away. one little girl ran around it in circles until her mum had to drag her away.

the coloured rooms totally didn't disappoint. someone pointed out to me that they use red lights in strip clubs because red is the most flattering tone for human skin. i tested it out, and you actually can't even see the freckle on my hand. blue was my fave

such a perfect experience after a shitty low feeling night. light is magic
