Workin' for a Livin'

.... well not really. Cause they don't pay me.

 BUT I started work at the RAC club! I got all set up with my work email and phone and desk and computer. The whole deal. I feel like a real person! haha.
The building (as I know I have said but I feel the need to reiterate) is GORGEOUS. Even though I didn't get a chance to look at this weeks car in the lobby =( . The only problem is that it is, as my supervisor calls it, a labyrinth. AKA a maze and as any of you who know me at all I am not exactly directionally savvy. So she's already expecting to find me wandering around aimlessly trying to find my way back to the office.
I don't have a lot of work things to tell you about cause it was mostly setting me up and getting used to everything, but my first full week starts monday! And they are taking me for a welcome lunch then! So updates about work to come soon!

In other news, we have been having an amazing time here. We love to go out and wander and discover new things. Yesterday we discovered china town, had some chinese food and saw all the gorgeous decorations they put up for chinese new year which is very soon (we will be going back). Afterward I made my first visit to one of the favorite bars around here called O'Neill's (shout out to my fav O'Neill, Katie haha). LOTS of fun it is three floors of live bands and dancing and very fun people. Will be making more visits there it has my favorite component; dancing!

Random news; made a friend with the last name Scott. My grandmothers maiden name is scott and is from the area that he is from. So i quizzed him on his family (for fun) turns out his grandfathers name is John (my grandmother had a brother named John... I think... right mom?) and has the same amount of siblings as my grandmother. SO BASICALLY I found a long lost relative haha. AND yes to all of you judging my excitement on this, I realize how common a name John is but we decided to believe what we want. So, cousins it is. AND YES he was just as excited as me.

My friend Devon and I witnessed a boy doing this game on the tube on the way home from the pub. every time the tube came to a stop he would start SPRINTING out of the doors touching the wall and back into the tube to touch the center pole as many times as he could before the doors closed on him. VERY entertaining. especially since there are tube monitor people who tell you to get inside the train before the door closes and she was FREAKING out yelling at him to get in.

more random- some guy introduced himself to me as"Hi Im english, not a gypsy" then walked away. thought it was funny

Okay I be out to do more londony things.

Seeee yaaa!
