Can it be home-time now?
The air-con at Disney is still broken. They use heat-emitting stage lights throughout the store. I am running a fever from some virus. Can my stomach lining survive the required amount of paracetemol?
Sleep now, little one!
I’m so exhausted. It’s all work, work, work lately. Yesterday was my day off and I slept until 3.30pm and then took a walk to Starbucks where I had a five-shot black americano. I think I’m becoming dependant on caffeine. Whoops?
And it feels so good!
Finally as I have a spare charger for my laptop (and a new phone) it seems like the world is righting itself. I have to go and pay for graduation now, the joy. I think a jolt of caffeinated euphoria is required to get me through a day of work after that.
The time traveler's... bit on the side?
How can time possibly go by so slowly immediately before an exam? I don’t think I’m going to last until 2.30 - I’m going to spontaneously combust from anticipation before then!
The girliest day ever.
Today I went shopping after work. Now I am drinking pomegrante wine spritzers and eating cupcakes with chocolate frosting that Rho made. They are delicious and so cute! Happiness is!
How not to walk barefoot.
Oops. Cut my foot for the second time this week (first standing on nail scissors, now with a razor) and trekked blood all over our bathroom. I am now forced to wear flats no matter how much I love to look leggy and tall! Sigh, it’s a hard life.

Silver bells in the city!
I have already bought my first Christmas present for 2008. Am I insanely organised or just insane?

Je ne comprend pas...
All I asked of the world was a Parisian for my French listening exam. So it had to be someone from the south east of France, right? I’m pretty sure I got their age right…
Skills and other qualifications.
We still have no working lights in the bathroom. It must be about three weeks now. Luckily, I learned to pee in the dark during that month the toilet at work had no light. Could this be something to add to the CV?
Dear Shoplifters
There is such a thing as being inconspicuous. Built like a bloke, face like a dog and a bright orange jacket to top it off is not one of these things.
I would set fire to their house if it weren't...
My downstairs neighbours have this theory that 6am is the best time to play incredibly bad techno/trance music. I’m not sure how this came about but it led to me being woken up two hours after I went to sleep. I was sure if they hadn’t started it by 3am then I was safe for the night. Apparently not. The music has stopped, for now, but if I go back to sleep then I’m definitely...
