The most expensive blog

Ok, I wrote have of this on the 15th and half on 19th so it's all over the place!
So it's now Saturday the 15th October and I have yet again let my blogging get away from me. Not to worry. I'm sitting in bed at 10am preparing to fulfill a lifetime dream... see Chelsea play in the EPL.

Maybe I'll go back to last Friday. 4 of us housemates went out for Pedro's birthday. We had a couple of drinks at a pub in Chiswick and then headed into town, around the Piccadilly area. We met a few of his Italian friends and had a good night. It was good going out with my housemates coz at the end of the night we all went back to the same place. He was flying to Italy for the weekend on Saturday morning so we stayed up with him until he had to go. We got pizza at about 2 in the morning, it was awesome. I didnt envy him leaving as we all headed to bed.

For the rest of the weekend I was feeling a little mopey and homesick. I tried to get myself out of it but I wasn't trying hard enough. I walked up to Hammersmith and was going to go in and see a museum or something but I had picked up a package from Royal Mail and bought a few things up at the shops that I now had too many things to carry so I walked home. Although I did stop off at a little tea room for French toast and to read my book. Ally & Matt came over for pizza and we watched X Factor with Tina. On Sunday we went to Spitalfields markets which was ok. I think I preferred Portobello. I was pretty tired and had a lazy Sunday evening in.

On Monday night Ally and I went to our bums, tums and thighs class and it was brutal! I'm still feeling it in my abs. Later at home I was watching tv with Tina and Pedro and Embarrassing Bodies was on and this girl was on there describing her symptoms in her private area and then the guy was examining her and then they showed it. Pedro and I went berserk! Tina thought we were funny but I couldnt believe they'd show something like that on TV!

Oh right, so I figured out the cure for mopiness. Spend lots of money :/ I booked flights to visit Tine in Germany, booked a Stonehenge/Bath/Windsor tour and… bought tickets for me and Matt to see Chelsea vs Everton (as mentioned above). I was trying to book Chelsea vs Liverpool but that was always going to be impossible, but then all of a sudden the Everton tickets were showing seats.

Later that evening I also booked a girly spa weekend for me and Ally.

On the Tuesday “Call me Bubbles” tried again, this time near Liverpool street. We werent great but the quiz master assumed we gave up and stopped reading our score! Wednesday I was supposed to go fir gym induction but Nikki invited me to go out for London Cocktail week so I had a tough time (not) changing my plans. It was great but really badly organised. Between the 2 of us (both in marketing) and her friend (in event management) we thought of all these things they should have done… apps, a map, addresses, recipes… etc.

Thursday night was the Winter Wonderland at the Montague hotel which was cool. It going to be held in December. On Friday night I stayed in and relaxed after a busy week and before a busy weekend.
