Hey everyone! well here i am sitting in my room in the flat getting ready for bed and feeling pretty at home. who would believe that so much has happened in one week! hard to imagine that i have found a job (well two actually... more details below), a great flat, and fallen more in love with the city!?
This week has been pretty gloomy as far as the weather is concerned. we got a months worth of rain today, and the paper has been calling it a "summer monsoon" haha. there's a paper called thelondonpaper that guys hand out all over the city for free, daily. everyone reads it on the tube or bus on the way home. there are little blurbs about major news stories, pop culture bits, tv listings, lovelinks, and listings for what's going on around town, etc. amanda and i have been picking them up and reading them while we eat dinner at home. we love reading thelondonlove section where people can write in and try to recover a missed connection. here is an example of one from today's:
"To the gorgeous man in tan on the Hammersmith to Richmond tube on Monday at 10:30pm. We smiled. I should have given you my numbr! I was the girl in black with a pink bg. Drink?" ANON
you can then get in touch with the paper if the person is you and they will link you up with whoever wrote it. hilarious right? love it.
in other news... i had an assesment/interview with harrods yesterday to be a full time employee in their christmas world department which opns in August. I was asked to stay for me second interview straight away and talked with one of the floor managers. they called me today and said i got the part! so i will start there on july 21 as long as everything works out correctly. i do need to specify with them what the pay is, just to be sure, but other than that i think everything is good to go!
alright, that's all for now. cheers!

Lucy! I miss you and I am sort of living vicariously through you and your so-fun London lifestyle. Life has been totally crazy in my department but I am going home this Friday to talk with my parents and whats next and that includes a trip to London! I will keep you updated, of course. LOVE YOU!
Luce - You have definitely done a lot in just a week's time!
I looked up your flat on google earth (or maybe it was yahoo maps) and it looks like you're just close enough to the city but not too close. Cool!
