london baybee
sooo heres a bit of an overview as to how my two months have gone. It was two months yesterday that ive been here in london, and im loving it more and more everyy day. its so beasutiful here, im falling in love with everything.
anyways, heres a short summery of my favortie days here:
November 17-18: spent my last night in Calgary at Dylans house (well his parents house) watching Indiana Jones and just goofin around, having a good time. Left calgary airport at 8:00 pm on the 17th and had a god awful flight. No iPod, no book, no TV. Landed at the Gatwick airport at 4:00am, 11;00 am London time. Met Lee, Ella, and Leo. Finally went to bed after being up for nearly 60 hours.
Novemeber 27th: Went to Bristol and had my runion with Jordan. Was like a romantic novel, finally in the arms of the only guy i have ever loved. Spent the whole time in the hotel room, drinking our way through a LOT of alcohol. fell asleep in his arms, but woke up feeling wretched. stupid hangovers. Felt like a little man was booting me continuously upside the head
December 5th: Went to the famous “Big Ben” with Lee and the kids. Rode on the London Eye, the biggest farris wheel in the world. Took pitures at Abbey Road, the street the was made famous by the Beetles.
December 19th: rented my own hotel room! went all the way to Cardiff to see Jordan. spent most of the night pissed off at him, because well, boys are infuriating. amazing next morning tho…
December 23rd: went out for beers at the Chamberlain with Lee, first time I’d been out since gtting to London. Went to some club where Lee knew the owner. Met him (Chris), and his hawwwwt younger brother, Jake. Free drinks all night, had way more than my fair share of alcohol! you know you had a successful night when you wake up the next morning, fully clothed, a washcloth hanging out your back pocket, and empty chocolate wrappers and raw spaghetti all over the floor.
December 25th: Christmas with the cousins!! Rachel (13), Ashling (8), Jessie (5). they were so so cute, and followed me everywhere! was up way to early because i was thrown outta bed in the morning by five hyper childen! It was alot of fun though. opened stockings in the morning , than had christmas lunch, where everyone stuffed themselves to the point of bursting with turkey and potatoes. Went rollerbladding in the afternoon with Lee, Leo, Ella, Rachel, Jessie, Susie and Mike (Lees sister and sisters husband). Opened the rest of the pressies in the afternoon. Got a nice shock when i realized id gotten quite a few presents when i was expecting none. 17 Again DVD (Ella), slippers (Leo), Holister t-shirt (Lee), raw spaghetti (Mike and Susie ha-ha), and £25 gift certificate to H&M (grandpa).
December 26th: went to Grandpa’s house for the day. Had a lovely walk with Lee, Mike, Susie, and the kids in the Heath. beautiful, beautiful place. went to the top of parliment hill, the highest point in London, where you can see all over the town. was freeing though, Susie kept dressing me in more layers, giving me her scarf and hat and finally her own coat. went back to grandpa’s and watched really adorable move with kids.
December 28th: went to Soho for the first time with Lee, Mike, and Susie. Met at some irish bar for a pint, than went to some random bar called Vodka Revolution which closed at 11. Finally ended up at the “O-Bar” where we all drank a bit too much. Met a sexay Italian named Deny, and we exchanged numbers. made plans with jordan for new years eve.
December 30th: went to Deny’s flat. got so lost walking there and rained on. once i got there, i couldn’t understand him at all, and kept zoning out on what he was saying. Can you say awkward? and i doubt he would be to pleased to know that it wasnt his sexy face i was thinking about, i had another sexy face on my mind. he was a really sweet guy though, and he walked me all the way home in the pouring rain. i think this was the first date ive ever been on where the guy didnt try anything. I got a kiss on the cheek goodbye, but even that was just a peck. Don’t plan on seeing him again, not when i cant focus on just him.
December 31st: went sha-sha-SHOPPING!! bought a new leather jacket!! WOO! spent alott of money that i probably shouldnt have haha. Spent New Years in Central Londo, watching fireworks with Stephanie, Lisa (her sister), and Tatiana (little blondie). Drank wayy to much and spent the night in the university residence, Hayem, with the girls. was pissed beyond belife that not only was i stood up by jordan, i never even got a call or text as to why he wasnt gonna make it.
Janurary 1st 2010!!- hungover like never before, went to Tower Brige with Lee, Susie, Mike, and the kids. was actually in a good ass mood, so it was alot of fun with the kids. An amazing experiance though, its a beautiful old bridge.
Janurary 2nd: went to the Imperial War Museum with Mike and Ben and all the kids. I was exhausted but it was actually a really interesting day. i never thought id be interested in stuff like that, but i wandered off from the group and was reading all the little signs and was really intrigued. obviously the kids didnt make it past the first display so eventually we had to leave, which was disappointing but all in all a good day. fell aslee while reading harry potter later on at home.
Janurary 8th: went to Soho again, this time with Sara, the German girl who lives a couple houses away from me. Pre-drank a couple beers and a bottle of wine at my place. We went to a gay bar first, which was a good laugh. got some really good pictures with all the gay men. we eventually migrated to the O-Bar again, which ended up being a shit show. i made it my goal to get as many pictures with random guys as i could. Sara met a guy she really liked, and i was forced to sit at a table with them and this really nasty guy that kept trying to hit on me. we did waaayy too many shots of tequilla, and it was around the point of the night where i jsut wantd to dance!! so sara and i went downstairs to the dance floor, and i got talking to one of the workers. he was beyond gorgeous and we chatted for a bit. then we all went out for a smoke and we exchanged numbers. than sara really really wanted to go back to her guys flat, so instead of going back with my hottie, i took one for team and went with her. watched the hangover. got serenaded a bit. then went to hayem to sleep.
Janurary 11-15th: looked after the kids all week, and started hanging out with sara more and more. had a couple wine nights, which was fun. got to know her quite well. i am very fond of her, im glad we met
Janurary 16th: predrank at sara’s place. went to meet her 3 friends (Sabrina, Christina, and Melanie). I really like Sabrina and Melanie, but am not a fan of christina. they all speak german AND english and shes the only one who doesnt make an effort to talk in english to me. i mean, i get that they all have an easier time talking german, and im okay with that. but she makes absolutely no effort to include me, so im not gonna make an effort for her. so anyways, we all split 3 bottles of wine, a 2-6 of malibu, nd another bottle of wine at the club. as well as at least 3 or 4 tequilla shots each. we waited in line for the club for an hour and a half in the pouring rain, which was defiantly NOT a good time, but the club turned out to be quite nice. we danced ourselves silly, and i re-met Will, who was really cute. we exchanged numbers. however, he is 23 which is a problem. so im guessing thats gonna be left as that.
aaaaannnndddd that brings us to today. not much has really happened since that night. i have just been looking after the kids and having a blast. i was forced into a tutu nd tights by ella last night, which is always a good time. can you say spandex wedgie?
anyways..plans for this weekend are g-g-great!! im going to oxford to party hardy with Melissa. We have every intention of gettin wrecked to the point of bein on the floor!!
more soon
