just a little update

Hi!
It's 2:45 and i'm about to start getting ready for work! only a week left and I'm done!! can't wait! i think my immune system will love me too! its been fun and i have met so many amazing people from it, just hard, i dont know how shift workers do it! Although i have the weekend off!! which im looking forward to so so much! and its suppose to be sunny on saturday, so i think we are going to get as many people as we can and enjoy a day in the park in  notting hill or at hyde park!
everytime i speak to dad he keeps telling me my accent is starting to change :S and i didn't believe him until a pohmmy i was talking to the other day said he wouldn't have guessed i was australian!! how bad is that haha. i need to get away from these english people!
not a lot more has happened. Rich arrives next week! am so excited! have to start making an itinery for our trip! i also have a job in greece if i want it, beach, sun (pretty much everything i need as you can tell from my pictures haha)
i will pop the itinery up when i finish it so you know where abouts we are :)
other than that, there is a heat wave in London (watch out haha) its tops of 24 today and 27 tomorrow! currently 21! haha talk about summer. i'm still wearing a jumper haha. i think i'm going to get a shock when i go to europe i wont know how to cope with the warmth!

weekend in the country side

walk through the park

Rupert getting into the chocolate buttons!!

The massive tree branch that had been split, not so good for the fence but great for a bridge haha


The scenery

Alex's well impressed face as we were going back to London, I'm not sure whether it was because of the fact that he had to start work at 8am or the fact that (as you can tell in the next picture, he was sitting next to a weirdo!)

Some weirdo! (hour long train rides do me no good!)

weekend in the countryside

Howdy!
Well, where do i start. these last few weeks have been so busy! it is less than 2 weeks before Richie gets here and less than a month before we start to travel! I have decided to spend a bit of time in Greece, i cant remember if i mentioned that last time or if its something I've decided since my last post, but i need the sun and i think it will be amazing :)
I spent the weekend at Alex's Mum's house in Amersham, was so nice to just get away from all the hustle and bustle of London, you don't realise how much there is until you get out. was such a lovely weekend, we spent most of it just relaxing, took the dog for a walk which was so funny, he is so full of energy!! also went to lunch for his dad's birthday at a beautiful country club (all you can eat buffet!!) and then spent the day yesterday walking around his dad's property, the house and garden is so beautiful (the garden reminded me of secret garden ha ha) i worked Saturday night and didn't get out of work until 8am!! was such a long shift, so i hadn't slept, so i don't exactly remember the trip there, except supposedly on the bus ride to his mum's after being on the tube for an hour, the bus stopped suddenly and i smacked the back of my head on a pole ( i am oblivious to all of this, which is probably a good thing!) was very nice though, we stayed until Tuesday and headed back to London last night. first thing i hear as we got into the tube station in London is a crazy man, on some rant ha ha, welcome to London!
Right now though I'm sitting in bed Listening to Nora Jones (always reminds me of mum :), i also spent the morning looking at aunt Kerrie's photo's of Alaska and Canada, so beautiful!) I am now about to get up and ready to FINALLY!!! get my bank account sorted! one of my bosses brothers works in a bank here, but Jay has been away for 6 weeks so he is finally bank and finally getting my bank sorted! very happy!
xxx speak soon

I finally saw Big Ben!

Picadilly circus, standing next to cupid (Harry where are you? haha)



Trafalgar Square

also Trafalgar Square

I tried to get in front of the lion but it was wet and slippery and i had mum's voice in my head telling me it was a bad decision haha (thank you mum)




Big Ben inside the London Eye (not going to lie, i've been sitting here for 10 mins trying to remember the name of the london eye, was about to just write big white turning circle haha, oh dear)

Houses of Parliment

Long time no talk!

Hi!!!
I know it's been such a long time! I think I've had the most hectic few weeks, known to man!
i found a place which is nice but i've had absolutely no Internet there except for my phone which is very difficult to do this blog on, Internet actually finally gets there today! which will be great! means i will be able to blog more.
My phone has actually also completely died! its been playing up for the last week, i had it restored so i lost everything and it was still playing up and then yesterday it just turned it self off and had some funny words come up haha, so mum dad i am safe and if you need to ring me Alex (nice boy i met- no not i'm not getting married haha) lent me a old phone and the number is 07528837586. i will try to take my phone into the apple store today or tomorrow. its funny to because when i was telling Josh (em's boyfriend- just got back to London from travel)about my phone, apartment etc (a lot has happened the past week) he said you've had so much bad luck. I haven't even noticed it haha :S
but in more exciting news!
I have met some absolutely amazing people, i cant really remember what i told you in my last blog, but Dani a girl from work is lovely, we do quite a lot together also Paula from work (Estonian) is great, we are planning a trip to Denmark in the next month! she has a friend there who came and visited a few weeks ago, which will be so fun i'd love to see Denmark! (hopefully it will get a bit warmer between now and then)
Rich will be here at the end of the month! so i will just be working my bum off so when he comes over we can do some travelling! One of my friends from Aus is also here at the moment. everything is happening, never a dull moment.
I met a sweet English boy and i got a marriage proposal the other day as well haha of a 32 year old haha i told him where he could find my ring and that its 12,000 haha(just realised there is no pound button on my computer!)they love the Australians.
besides all that I am sick... AGAIN! the weather makes it hard i think, and inside is all warm then you walk out and your frozen!
I'm also realising how used to English i'm getting, I don't notice the accent at all and the other day em sent me a msg with $20 in it and i automatically read it as pounds, dear dear haha.
It's bank holiday this weekend, we were thinking of going to Brighton but the weather is looking miserable!! so maybe just do some fun activies around London!!
I will put up pictures soon i promise!
xoxo love lots and miss you all and will speak soon!
p.s i'm not sure if it will work but if you get on this you may be able to look at my pictures i've up loaded hopefully! xxx
