London life

So Christmas is over and this year was AMAZING. Santa even came into our room and left a stocking for both Sam and I. We hardly slept and woke up at about 6am and then counted down until 7am, deciding it would be too early to realistically get up!
Sam was so excited all day, and the family came home at about 11am to begin the present unwrapping and jokes.

I moved to Sams about ten days before christmas because the move to Cornwall didn't work out due to my mother being a complete twat again. Calling the police on me and hurling abuse for irrational reasons and generally making me feel like shit. Also the job scene down there is unreal, and hanging out at the job centre which STINKS, having few friends remaining down there, one parent (dad who was great and highly enjoyed my cooking) and no way of getting around, or way to go surfing, was getting pretty dire. Also being away from Sam, who was living in London, was rubbish.

I got some keys to the house in my stocking and some bike thermals and some drawing stuff, chocolate money, three records on vinyl, a photo frame of me and Sam, a new phone, an electric toothbrush and me and Sam made each other the exact same joke tshirt! saying I <3 BOP except I did mine using a transfer and it came out in reverse, but it's ok.

I am missing my friends quite a lot and feeling a bit dependent, which I can't stand but haven't a lot of choice. However it is new years eve soon and we're hoping to go to Brighton and see some people then.

Have been applying for jobs and did a bit of work at Earls court for a deadmau5 concert but it was reaaaaaaly busy and the bar was under stocked with things such as bottle openers which was pretty annoying but overal it was a good experience. nightmare getting home though because of the 'adverse weather' so all the trains were pretty fucked.

Read a book called 'the book of tomorrow' which was alright and am on Harry Potter now after watching one of the films and wanting to complete the story, really need to know whose side Snape is on! wtf! Also reading a book called French women don't get fat which teaches the principle of eating quality of quantity (standard) and savouring every mouthful and using your head. It is great because it's not really a diet book, just a good philosophy in that you can have anything you want; nothing is forbidden, you just have to choose your moment and really enjoy it when you do.

Made some tasty dinner last night: mixed beans, mixed lentils and soya mince chilli with peppers and green beans. A colourful, spicy tomato rich bowl of health after all the xmas fat.

Also dont think I can take alcohol anymore!!! was sick the other night (although did down a pint of red wine in a drinking game) but am never sick! think the last time was in Spain hahaaa. I miss the summer. Saw Paul recently in Whitechapel which was nice and hope to see Liam soon. the TWIT.

It is Sams birthday next week so gotta start thinking up desert ideas for the king of cream. A birthday cake I think or maybe another massive pavolva. Made dad a strawberry and rasberry pavlova recently so have practised a bit more and know that the egg whites DO NOT LIKE ELECTRIC MIXERS. slow and steady wins the race (and breaks your arm)

Sams says I should write a cook book. I have written some songs and then recorded them really shitly on a camera and then made a video on movie maker and then uploaded it to facebook then got a load of good feedback then uploaded it onto musicalcomedy.co.uk who told me I would stand a good chance at the comedy awards, then got an email saying I am through to the live heats in Islington and now I have to sort out 8 minutes of live performance and dont really know how or where to start!!!!!! only have a laptop backing track sourced by you tube and that's hardly reliable or good quality. I am hoping someone can help me.

Today I want to exercise, I feel kinda trapped in London because you are surrounded by buildings, there is no sea or green areas in the distance which is SO WEIRD. I see the sea as an opening, almost an escape route or at least a great body of tranquillity to assist you when feeling too cluttered in the mind. I'm feeling quite cluttered. I just want to go to France I don't want to work in a telesales job. I have a possible start date in a telesales job (recruitment consultant) in Mayfair in early January, which I will probably take because I just need to start earning but i can see it being quite soul destroying too.

I think i am going to go into central London today and just wonder and explore and try to gain some more bearings as I feel pretty new to it all still up here. maybe go and sit in a park if the weather stays dry.
