Spring (not love) is in the Air

Hey everyone,

As you may have noticed my blogs have become fewer and far between - and for that I am sorry but things have been a little crazy around here. Ashlie's visit was a success, she had a great time and despite the weather really enjoyed London. Poor girl got this years worst weather and as soon as she left it was so sunny and warm. Sorry Ash!

Now we had a Wild West theme party just for the sake of a party (gotta love those kinds of parties!). My crazy flatmates while out drinking one night decided to hire the Cuban band playing there that night for our party. Now we live in a apartment complex with 7 other people but Ang talked to our neighbours and they were cool with it. Who she did not talk to was the people directly below us and at about 12 midnight the lady was NOT HAPPY. I was upstairs so I did not see her but I heard her. Apparently she was not even wearing socks or shoes (not smart on a cement floor in a building) and then threatened to get her teenage boys to beat us up , then said she was calling the cops. Crazy. Well she did not end up calling the police but the party kinda of diffused from that and it ended up just a few of us dancing to some cds I had made. So it was fun for me! haha.

Yeah some people were asking me about Dave (the boy I said I was dating) who I wrote about in my last blog. Well go figure he broke up with me in a text message. I was upset but I had to laugh cause I kept thinking about Sex and the City when Burger broke up with Carrie in a Post-it. Stupid boys.

My big decision now is whether I move to Spain for the summer. This may seem out of the blue because it is. I just came across this idea yesterday, well I should say my flatmate came across it. She has been looking for a change and went online and found this job in a restuarant on this Spainish Island and she is packing up and going! In like a week! Anyways I cannot go that quickly because I need to give my job notice and Andrea and Alyse are visiting in May but June/July would be perfect and I missed the ocean and sandy beaches last summer.

That is what is going on in my life this week and stay tuned for my decision! Haha Later!

March Madness

Well it seems that I have been too busy to write and I am too nervous my boss will find my blog so I cannot write at work. I have notice that being here eight months there are still things that I find amusing. Like they call crossing guards Lollipop man/lady and they call bumps in the road humps so you see signs that say “Humps for 30 Metres” he he gets me every time. I feel like I’m in grade 7 but I cannot help it. I am happy to say that my friends from the band Buck Brothers have beaten the record for the most gigs played in one day. The record was held by a German Band with 26 gigs and they did 28..just to make sure haha. I had to work that day so I tried to catch up with them but they were ahead of schedule so I was chasing them around the city centre but finally manage to get to the winning gig…number 27!!! It was all very exciting for them with being covered by the news and papers. They are heading to Canada for music week so if you are free you should check them out!

My flatmates and I are having another party. This time it is Wild West Theme (I know always with the theme over here). It will be the last night Ashlie is here too so it will be a good send off! I think I know what I am going to wear but I may change my mind a few more times. Ashlie will be here soon so I better prepare some suggestions for her while I am at work. So much pressure to do everything in one week!

Well I am still painting at the store. I swear it never ends with this painting. This Sunday I am working an extra day so I can do the floors. Yes people my life is that exciting haha. I hear my little cousin (yes she is only a month younger but whatever) is expecting baby number two so congrats Vanessa. I am expecting some pics of Olivia … it will be good to have some mail that isn’t from the bank. Also a big congrats to Brianne and her baby Hayden (sp??) I am so happy you are happy and healthy. I hope someone will send me pics of that baby soon too!

My original plan was to stay here till June go to Armenia then maybe go back to school in Canada but now I just do not know. Everything is more confusing since coming back and I really do not see myself leaving anytime in the near future but who knows what my life will be in the next few months. I will keep you updated!!
