something to get us going...

so...illegally sitting in the senate house library of university...something of...london or something...i don't even really know where i am...sorry - plugged into the new broken social scene (you can take the girl outta canada but you can't take the canada out of the girl...eh?) - i am updating all y'all my lovlies on my recent escapades of the first week. i have been job and house hunting like mad - although i regretted to be..umm..what's that word...realistic - yeah! realistic when it comes to finding a REAL job. some cheese shop wants to hire me and that's a start at least but dudes i need a REAL job now that i'm twentyfuckingfour and approaching adulthood at a rapid breakneck pace (i by no means whatsoever believe i have reached it yet tho - don't worry). anywayz - some highlights of the week so far consist of the following:
a) a UC reunion of sorts - living with nids, next door to holly, a short journey to isaac, down the tube from lexi - is awesome.
b) ducking the front hall porter has been hilarious and suspenseful but....would i have life any other way?
c) nidhee has been a godsent angel of mercy when it comes to everything...she deserves some serious medal of honour for being the best person alive
d) wanders thru the natural history museum, hyde park, kensington gardens, british library, spitalfields market, brick lane, shoreditch vintage shops have made me feel like i have at least seen some sights so far
e) absolute vintage...a near religious experience - primark...a few steps even closer to my god

other than that...people here do indeed dress pretty well as i have heard told - they also really like their high heels which freaks the f*** outta me...flats for life.
also...there is a poseur-esqueness about the local, seasonal, fresh, awareness of producer scene here...a lot of places seem to pay a lot of lip and sign service to this but i'm getting the feeling that they're not so much with the follow through...hmm...
