1 week..

So it's been a week since I got here, I'll make this quick as I'm eating dinner...food, food, food, is all that's on my mind..I've spent the last week eating various foods in shops and from grocery stores, so many new things to try, and obviously some classic favourites...I've already finished a giant bag of Cadbury buttons...I'm enjoying all the great things Marks and Spencer's has to offer, all you health nuts will be proud to know I'm drinking all sorts of organic juices..and yes, they taste amazing! I guess all I wanted to say here is that variety is front and center in London, I haven't even tried all the different pop drinks they have! I should make a totally different blog that just deals with food and drink....Yes yes, pictures will be soon, maybe next week since I'm getting a routine down.

Spent today in Tooting (Can you say Scarborough) and Kingston (Richmond Hill)hahaha....Kingston is a nice place to shop, I didn't get to fully explore but I'll probably spend a day down there next week, shopping and what not. Feel free to send me $$$....Ram I'm looking in your direction.

Over my head.

So I've been settling in nicely...but before I get into that...Happy Birthday to Jay and Mathini....both of you cursed with birthdays on such a tragic day..Jay, I'd go into your birthday at York but we'll keep that between the York folk lol..

Like I was saying, I've settled in quite nicely. I've wandered around the area and gotten a good grasp of my surroundings, I'm now faced with teh task of running around downtown without getting lost. I STILL don't have a cell phone but I should be able to change that sooner than later. I have an interview on Friday with an agency which should be good, get my feet wet and see how the whole process works on this side of the pond. Still, I think not taking any sort of break between Toronto and here is a bit crazy, I mean I just got here and I'm pushing this hard lol. You ever get the feeling your in a bit over your head. I know I have!!!

I WILL get pictures up as soon as I can start uploading on the iMac, for now I'm working on the PC and I don't wanna mess this computer up. Hope your all keeping well, some more than others...kidding!

Cheers!

In London..

Pretty self explanatory..I just wanted to leave a message to all those who came together for the picture frame gift, it really was a fantastic idea. I need to buy a converter for it as the one I have is for my iMac..but I can assure you that I'll have it up and running soon enough. I'm going to try not to wake up to that picture of Vulture you guys put in, but we'll see how it all goes. I'm probably going to wander around some more tomorrow, for now I'm going to sleep as I'm dead tired. I've been paranoid the whole time till I got here, and plugged in my computer lol. You'll be hearing from me soon enough, I'll shoot some pictures of my living space, it's quite big!

And that's it..

Well the night is over, and now I have to brace myself for the coming change. I want to email all the people that matter but it's 3am, and I was only able to shoot out one email. I guess I'll have to do the rest when I'm in London. All in all, a very good night. I hope Berton had a good time! I'm also hoping that all of you come visit me at some point down the road. My $ is on Monica to be the first, which means I'll have to set up some baller pad for her lol. Until we meet again, keep checking your emails over the coming days as I intend to write something for each of you if possible.

The last Friday

So I leave tomorrow, tonight is Berton's b'day celebration which should be good. Not sure if any of this has sunk in yet, but it's becoming more real as I see people for the last time (well for the time being). I'm sitting in my room looking at all the crap I've collected over the years, plus 2 suitcases full of my life (which isn't really a lot, I don't own that many things to be honest) Wonder what that says about a person, when they can in theory fit most of their life in a single suitcase. I'll pack the computer last since I'm still using it, I'm nuking as many albums as I can since I do own a lot of CD's. I wish Krishna left me the damn "A fine frenzy" album! Luckily I converted it before he went back to University

I have to say though, I love the fact that people are certain that I'll be able to make it work in London, I'm not saying I doubt myself but I have no idea how this will all pan out. All I hope is that it's what I'm looking for...(Don't ask what "it" is) =)

Happy B'day Berton!!! Hopefully we all make tonight count!!!

Cheers
