Meeting Jim Halpert

Hey guys! Some of you have facebooked me asking when I'd blog again.. honestly we have been SO busy with school lately! Not a whole lot of leaving the flat except to go to classes and museums.
HOWEVER.

Today- Kate, Lisa and I went to the Tate Modern after class. They had to practically drag me there. I didn't really want to do anything after a long week. We were looking at a performance exhibit in the main hall of the Tate Modern when I look to my right and see a man sharing a striking resemblance to John Krasinksi (Jim Halpert from the Office). I don't take this hunk of a man lightly- this summer I was asked which celebrity I would want to have lunch with and my answer was JOHN KRASINKSI. I walk and look closer and practically melt there on the spot when I get a look at his face. I ran over to tell Kate and Lisa and look back to see him walking down the stairs into the crowd. So of course I shot like a bandit to catch up with him. Luckily, he wasn't too far ahead. Kate and Lisa didn't believe it was him from behind- much taller and thinner in person. We followed him into the ticket line for the Munch special exhibit. Still, Kate and Lisa didn't believe it was him- I almost walked away when he turned to face us and we all realized that THIS WAS DEFINITELY JOHN KRASINKSI. So, we got in line and I snuck up to him (I might have come off a bit like a creeper) and said, "Hi, John-" He turned around and my heart practically stopped, "Sorry, but do you think we could get a picture with you?"
He smiled and said, "Yeah sure!" like it was no big deal. I had already brought my camera out (of course) and quickly handed it to Kate (who mentioned to him that we were 'big fans'). Lisa jumped in- the first picture was blurry and I thought maybe we'd already cut in too much to his "normal life", but he just shook and said, "Okay, lets take another one!"
He was SO NICE. He asked what we were doing in London and Lisa mentioned we were getting our graduate degrees. He asked what we were studying and I told him we were studying art history.
"Well, this is the place for it!" I think my heart, at this point, was not beating, and I know that I DEFINITELY wasn't breathing. Lisa asked him what he was doing in London and he told us that he was just visiting.
All in all, our encounter lasted us a few minutes- but afterwards we could not breathe, and Kate and I had shaky hands for about 20 minutes following. The exhibit was great, but the masterpiece of the Tate was definitely Mr. John Krasinski.

Take one was a little blurry- but he is showing his beautiful teeth so I couldn't NOT post it.

Take two- JIM SMILE!!! OMGGGGGG
