I'm on holidays

Hello, my sweetheart(s)!

Since I have been to UK, exactly almost 2 weeks, it has been like holidays for me. From the beginning of this week a bit less holidays, because I started waking up at 8am every morning.... Because, otherwise, you simply don't get shit done. And by "shit" I mean updating your CV, applying for jobs, uni and OIC. 
I know, it is the time of the year, when it gets dark soon, but for some reason it seems different here. When it starts going dark outside, around 15h/16h, then it feels like night and I don't feel like working then. Aaaand, here you are, when waking up at midday, doing things slowly....morning coffee and a cigarette...having a shower...fixing your hair, you wont be ready to do things before 14h... and 2h after, it will be almost dark already....being an "Early bird" is essential to get shit done. 

Today's plan is to go sightseeing and tomorrow to galleries and museums... not sure yet where I'll be ending up, but it will be nice, that I know. 

What I have discovered so far... like I said, food is not too good around here. Even at the big food stores... when choosing a cheese.. there is not much to choose, mostly you need to have a discussion with yourself about weather you would prefer a yellow Gouda or orange Gouda. Tough luck, uh!  In France, there are many cheeses to choose from....and all are equally amazing.. It's hard to not pick a good one...of course, I'm probably a bit less picky compared to average Frenchman, but still... it feels like being back to Est where anything a bit different is considered to be a gourmet and due to that, on the shelves of a store, the price is wayyyyy higher... So, all French consider to be a everyday dish...fresh meat, pastry, cheese, ham... all this is gourmet here! Too bad. I sort of got used to good food. 

Same thing for wine....+ wine is, no matter how shit it is, very expensive! 

The Queen of Everything! 
But, on the bright side... the rest of the merchandising system here is nice! I mean...French is nice, but only if you earned plenty money... Louis Vuitton and the whole Vendome area are lovely, the avenue Montaigne... Love it! But, here in London, probably, because here is a bit more people living here and they can not all afford to live around where Hugh Grant lives...me included...the East is my hood!... therefore, there are very reasonable high street fashion stores with reasonable prices... and ...and ...and....I got this awesome cup for myself, absolutely love it! :) 

And...the Black Friday is coming up! If you all could keep your fingers crossed for me to either get an awesome well paid job and my first pay cheque by then....or just keep your fingers crossed for me to win the lottery... That would do the trick too, I think! 

What else... Since I'm staying with my Frenchies, I haven't really met too many English people... but, my plan is to look into the English Humour. Oh yes...we have all heard about it, but I really have no clue how it presents itself in everyday life... so here's what I'll find out. 

Another thing, what has been bothering me a lot is that disgusting sweat suit fashion that is going on here.... wtf is up with that!!! I will find out! 

That's it for now! 

Love! 
Bisous!
Musid!
