not home yet

hiyas.
thought id just update zee old blog...

im still in london and have enjoyed many a day strolling through hyde park, battling the summer holidayers in the coolest toyshop hamleys on oxford street, gone to topshop and gone bananas, eaten my way through parts and well... its been fun!

i am obsessed with playing e-Monopoly on simon's computer. its like playing in london in real life! these places really exist... like... Kings X station, Marylebone, Park Lane (personal favourite)... etc etc etc!

this has been a bit of a testing ground to see if id like to live here.

i know its always different when youre travelling.

but yes. i think i could definately do it.

gone dutch. now english.


its been an eventful few weeks!!
i have made it alive in London and have sneaked into exclusive clubs in soredich or whatchamecallit... gone 'orange dutch' for my sister michelle's wedding in holland... got eaten alive by mosquitoes in beautiful venice... hugged the porcelin bowl in berlin from catching a 'german flu'... CZECHed out Prague... and even ate my way through croissants in Paris!
so....
whats this all mean?
im falling in love with London. the last time i was here was 8 years ago... during the 2000 Sydney Olympics.... and yeah yeah yeah... it was the 'best olympics ever' and i missed it... and well well well... i''m missing my homeland china's beijing games as well!
the irony for a sport loving, event manager is that... well, when all is said and done.... the olympics, in all its full blown ridiculous advertising political spinning and 'patriotic' enhancing advancements... it reminds me of work.
pure and simple.
im so cynical. but hey. at least i dont have hives.
