Yesterday I partook in a great deal of celebratory birthday activity.
Some of my friends are awesome.
Meg is amazing. She really is, I got a birthday (cup) cake and she’s lending me a reasonable amount of crockery so I can have stuff while I’m here.
Marie and Simon bought me earrings which are really cute. I love the little bow ones and button ones. So adorable. Hahah. I sound so girly.
Anyway, busy day ahead today. Going to see a play called Ghost Stories on the West End tonight.
Today I received a package from my mum. A nice wee something for my birthday I guess.
My hand is half asleep. Really the rest of me should be too.
I don’t know quite why I’m bothering with an update, outside of the fact I just finished watching the new episode of Outrageous Fortune. Gosh that series really is quite good.
I think I’m going to try and make a mix tape at some point. I’ve been building playlists in Spotify, I just now need to turn those into something.
London has been pretty hot. Today was another near 30 degree day. Its going to turn a bit for the end of the week though. Not so cool. I guess its good I organised drinks in a pub near Oxford Circus.
I am working on a plan for a couple of craft projects. I will post them here soon.
One thing I need to do is post my new dress making one, inspired by the dress a day blog.
Oh and I’ll put up a picture of the Dan Hiller I am now the owner of. God I love investing in art, even when I have no money for it!
So I finally have Internet sorted in my flat. My flat is amazing. its a warehouse in North London… This might mean I have to become an Arsenal or Tottenham fan. I live with 11 people. My room has a mezzanine floor!
I am having a great/awful time in London. Various reasons for all of this. The good is the people I’ve met, the place I’m currently staying, the cool galleries, and basically just walking around is awesome.
The bad is the expensive price of breathing in this city, the sweaty tube rides, the job, the horrible demise of my parents marriage from so far away but still getting to see the whole thing played out, the people I miss back home, not having people who will come and do all the things I want… oh and I think my health is going a bit downhill at the moment.
Lets brighten this up with some photos of the new place huh?
Ok so not that exciting, but it is my room. But not the Mezzanine. I can’t find the photo I took of that in the daylight.
