Last nights consequences

 
Dear lord, my head hurts! 
 
I went out with Simon yesterday. Had a few drinks at the Cow in Stratford. I told him that we go in to central it's very important we do not end up at the same place as the guys! The boys from work had one of their "Lads on tour"
 
(Apparently, yesterday was LOT3TBR.)
 
where girls are highly forbidden oto crash/show up. 
 
So you can imagine my oh-god-they-are-going-to-kill-me face when I came out from the bathroom at Punk 
 
(Nightclub.)
 
and they were all standing in the middle of the dancefloor. 
 
Because I had a friend with a penis with my I was allowed to stay. Later on we went to Roxy
 
(According to my smudged stamp on my wrist.)
 
(Just kidding. I totally knew.)
 
and stumbled home around 4AM. And now. DEAR LORD, my head hurts. So I'm on my fourth glass of milk. Nothing better than gallons of milk in the morning.

Brace yourself, I'm going to Italy

One of my absolute best friends live in Florence, Italy. This morning I booked my tickets to go see her! I'm leaving in ten days and to let her know...
 
I posted this on her wall:

Waiting for the sun

I'm sitting in my bed, ready to jump out the window and onto the sunny roof. Except that it's sunny for three minutes and then dark for five. And this has been going out all morning. 
 
I am not going to sit out there, T-shirt folded down, like an idiot without the sun?!
 
So I'm staying in. Reading their direction. Watcing the clouds like a hawk.

Walk On The Wild Side

I've been watching this clip three times now and basically crying from laughter! It's a bunch of clips put together from BBC's Walk On The Wild Side.
 
Basically... they make animals talk.
 
The MOST HILARIOUS moment is at the 3.25 mark where the seal wakes up from a bad dream!

Notting Hill Carnival tomorrow!

I've been coding for so long that my head is spinning.
 
(It sounds cooler than it is.)
 
It's time for me to call it a night. The night? Not sure. But I'm calling it! 
 
Working until five tomorrow and then it's off to Notting Hill Carnival!
 
(I wanted to go today but all my born-and-raised-in-London friends told me off. Explaining that today is nothing but the family day.)

The beautiful London

I just got back from a long walk and went a little bit crazy on Instagram,
 
(I apologize to all my Instagram for the Thelloimlouise mayhem that happened.)
 
because of all the beautiful scenarios around here. Just look at it! This is the London you should discover when you're here. Not just central with Big Ben and all. No, you're supposed to walk the quiet streets where you run into stranger's cats and the greenery embracing the buildings. 
 
This is the London I love.

iMessage with friends

I love iMessage! I'm texting back and forth with Jennifer who's in Italy, my family and other friends in Sweden, my awesome penpal Kevin in the states and can easy keep in contact with Paola in Venezuela!
 
And when it, basically, doesn't cost anything you can go a bit... overboard.
 
Whenever me and Jennifer text we don't really have anything to say. We're nothing but entertainers.

It's going to be a good day

Today feels like a good day! I don't have a perticular reason so I think I've tricked myself into this today-is-going-to-be-legen-wait-for-it-dary! I read somewhere that you can actually do that! Trick yourself, that is. 
 
If you keep smiling something sends something to the brain which makes the brain think it's pleased with itself. 
 
I don't know how legit this is but I'm sticking to it!

Quick birthday gathering

I finished work at 11PM and then popped into
 
(And with "popped" I mean taking the tube in to central and the walk, like, 500 miles.)
 
Tom and Zara's birthday gathering! Ended up in a dark bar basement with heavy music and blue lights. Called it a night two hours later and am now on the bus home. What work would be without these people, I don't know!

Blogging during lunch break

It's 7PM and I'm on my dinner break. Although the dish I had more looked like a lunch with all its cold tuna and lettuce.

And have you seen this Coke Zero

(I know, mum. I'm sorry. I shall not drink that kind of bad diet beverage ever again.)

bottle? IT'S SO TINY! I've been staring at it for ever. Lifting it up, weighing it in my hand.

 

IT'S SO TINY!

 

And the fact that this is amusing me so much is a sign of my energy failing.

Woke up way too early

This will do for now. At least it's simple and easy to follow.
 
I woke up at 6AM this morning. Work start at 2PM.
 
(Yeah. I know. I was annoyed too.)
 
Instead of going back to sleep I felt this urge to play Mario World - and that is what I did. I played for two hours. Turned. Went through the newsfeed on Instagram. Turned. Went through the newsfeed on Twitter. Turned. Went through the newsfeed on Facebook. Turned. 
 
It is now 10:21 and I my butt hurts because I've been sitting up in my bed for too long. So I will get ready and maybe do some shopping. It is payday, after all.

Updating... slowly

WOW, this is ridiculous. The server keeps crashing making it impossible to update this website quick enough for my liking. Also... they've changed the rules of coding so written codes from before won't work. 
 
I apologize on the behalf of my platform. Sort of. Until then you can just enjoy my new header.

What I'm thinking about these days

I realise I am not giving this blog enough love at the moment. Sorry, blog. It's just that I am in one of those WHAT-THE-HELL-AM-I-GOING-TO-DO-WITH-MY-LIFE phase right now. You know, when you're experiencing mini heart attacks every now and then during the day. 
 
(The only reason to why I'm writing this post is because I've grown my nails pretty and long - and I love the tick-tick sound it makes when I press down the buttons of this keyboard.)
 
(I feel like a belong in a magazine's office.)
 
There is a lot of things I want to do. I want to write. Act. Create art. Design. Stories. AH, I don't know. I live in London and there is SO much you can do over here but at this very moment I feel like I'm not taking advantage of it. At all. 
 
So... today I have basically researched what you can do. What sort of roles there are to take on in life. I want to do something that combines EVYERTHING I love to do. That might sound silly to you people but shouldn't this be something everyone should aim for? Something that really is your passion. 
 
Everyone preach it but not many actually do it - I want to be one of those who do. I want to be fully happy with my everyday life. I'm not asking for it to always be on my terms but I want it to be the consequences from a desicion I was proud to take. Something that I am happy to own up to.
 
That's what I want to do.

You can do whatever

 
It's frustrating yet empowering to think of how keen I am to get my 'adult life' together. How bad I want a career that I'm really passionate about. How excited I get when I think about all the things I can do. And then how impatient I get when I realise how much experience and knowledge you need to have before actually getting there. 
 
I know shortcuts are something you should try to avoid when life desitions are made. You are supposed to take your time. But I'd like to think that has changed. Today, you can afford to take the shortcuts. As long as you which ones to pick. 
 
This generation getting into the grown-up world now also bring in a new way of getting around. Education isn't everything
 
(Unless you want to be a doctor. Always study to become a doctor.)
 
anymore. It's about people. Connections. Being at the right place at the right time with the right person and the right, original view. And that is what I like. You can now afford to be your-quirky-self in an interview or cover letter. You can afford to stand out. You're supposed to! 
 
It also means that you are now supposed to go that extra mile. Every time. Just to be seen. And at this point, you probably need to go three extra miles to get ahead of the rest who also has realised the new way of beeing seen. 
 
And I like it. This means that anyone can go to any extremes to get somewhere. Yeah, we've read the interviews with people who got everything and just started out 'as you and me'. We sigh while pushing on the point that they just say so that we think they can relate to them. 
 
And even though that might be true... their words are as well. Anyone can get anywhere. You can do whatever you want. Someone has to get job that you so badly want - and why can it not be you?
