Don't ask me how I did it, but I managed to get my hands on a ticket to the Spice Girls playing at 02 Arena, London on December 15th! I am so over the moon that last night I literally jumped over the moon and can now confirm that tiny aliens made out of cheese (most likely cheddar but possibly camembert) live on the surface of the moon in small huts. Some might consider the amount of money I paid for it a small fortune but YOU ONLY LIVE ONCE. I think the fact that I am going should prove to people that I actually do like the Spice Girls and I'm not just attention seeking.
At the end of the month my mum and my grandmother are coming to London and we're gonna hang out and see some sights before heading to Paris and then Somerset to see some rellies. While I'm in Somerset I'm gonna check out the area and if I like it I'm gonna consider moving there for the first 6 months of next year. I wanna shake things up a bit.
Yesterday I had a brialliant idea and pushed the two single beds together in my room and made myself a comfy double bed. Now I have a decent place to shag all my boyfriends and shoot myself up. HAHAHA.
Next week I'm going to Silverchair and then I'm going to Within Temptation in November and then Spice Girls in December. I need something to go to in October as that month is looking a little lonely. So far I've been to Melanie C and Type O in June and Metallica in July. So I've had something good every month.
I'm doing pretty good in London at the moment. I'm making some decent money and able to save a fair amount each week, though it is true what they say 'THE MORE YOU EARN THE MORE YOU SPEND!!!' as a couple of times now I've had some weekend benders where I've spent more than some people earn in a week on alcohol. I'm not even gonna add up the cost of all the concert tickets I've bought/will buy in the future as I'm seeing some fuckin good music lately.
MY job is so cruisy. Yesterday I answered the phone once, answered the door once, created my double bed, watched some TV and played some Nintendo DS. And I got PAID good money to do that. Never had a job so slack yet so well paying in my entire life. Fuck answering a call every minute and trying to sell shit to people and earning PEANUTS. Everyone should manage a hotel when u can just lie in bed all day or sit outside in the sunshine waiting for something to happen.
The only thing in life that I have to stress about at the moment is all the organising I'm going to be doing over the next few months...sorting out visas for the US and Canada, getting police checks, references, flights etc. I know I'm not going until next May/June but it's not like I can do these things the night before!!!
I feel a bit home sick at times but it's often just in passing, like I will think of certain things about back home that I didn't appreciate enough...like being able to walk down a street without getting run over by people or having people block your way or stop in front of you randomly or walk REALLY REALLY SLOWLY UGH. I'm pretty sure my walking speed had doubled or probably tripled since I've been in London. IT'S THE ONLY WAY YOU CAN GET ANYWHERE!!!
