"..and how are you today?"

i am obsessed with Lego at the moment. love it! :)
last week i went to London with my friends..aka my 'fanboys' friends. we went to Simon pegg's book signing at forbidden planet...we queued in the freezing cold for hours. my feet were super cold. while we waited, Mr pegg went past the queue in his car, with his head out the window shouting hello to everyone, which was kinda nice. in the queue you had super nerds--a few of which were very clever indeed with ideas such as bringing a cricket bat for Mr pegg to sign...(awesome idea...why didn't i think of that!!). he was super nice, lots of random conversation was had, he asked if i wanted a jaffa cake, and that i had to eat it in front of him, he came up with a pub quiz name for our team---and other random things..some of which i cannot really talk about!--haha, awesome stuff. afterwards we went to a pub in London for a few drinks...awesome day indeed.
back to work now, new role at work...its more of a challenge, but that's always a really good thing. loving work at the moment, even though its a little stressful with some bits and pieces, i still love my job, which is good. on Monday i am helping put up the Xmas decorations!--a little bit early, but that's retail. i guess i will need to start with Christmas shopping...oh dear...i have no idea what to get people...my head isn't in Xmas mood yet! :)

"It doesn't often snow at Christmas, The way it's meant to do, But I'll still have a glow at christmas, Because I'll be with you."- the Pet Shop Boys

mad times have been had. its so nice to come home from a long day at work, and just chill out. we have had super amounts of snow recently, which has been rather super!----however getting to work wise, its not been that great!..or falling over on the ice, which i haven't done yet! but now its raining and the snow is being washed away...i really wanted snow on Christmas day. i went to see the pet shop boys with J on Monday night in London--as he had a spare ticket. it was amazing, i have always loved the pet shop boys, and to go see them live was FAB. their show was so visual--cube walls, dancers with cubes for heads, and of course their outfits. it was amazing.apart from that i have been wrapping presents, watching Nick and Norah, taking photos, reading old comics, reading mail from my pen pal Jane, listening to my merry making Xmas cd, going out to dinner with my best friends, going for cups of tea in town, workingworkingworkingworking...in a busy shop at Christmas time, getting my rock paper scissors necklace in the post, and growing my very own Christmas tree.aah also, me and the wonderful lina, have started our very own blog together, its all for fun, a mini project. please check it out!---i hope you enjoy, we have only just started, but hope to get updating as much as we can! here--and--there. peace to you all.

...are no longer filled with good times

(my very messy room...which I really need to sort out)
Life feels a little fragmented at the moment, i seem to be running around in different places at the moment. nothing seems set. i got the most coolest package in the post, its from my lovely friend Kay. she has sent me my Xmas present, but i am waiting for Xmas before i open it. but she sent me the coolest card in the planet..hehe..she picked it just for me, an atc, Jon Burgerman stickers and a really old letter...my favorite part of the letter is the following words;
"I will miss living in the city, I always look up at the windows to your flat whenever I am in town, it fills me with sadness that the rooms inside are no longer filled with good times and laughter."i had the most fun day ever with one of my really good friends, we exchanged Xmas presents...i couldn't wait, and said that we should open them now. S got me a new moon mug, and a moleskine...i have always wanted one, i have always had cheaper versions of them, and now i have a proper one! i cannot wait to fill it up!

where is my american boy?

(my view out of my old uni flat window)
just got in from work, and i feel super creative..and i have no idea why! i guess spending all day looking at clothes and deciding what looks good with what, and then putting them on mannequins has made me rather creative today. i have a couple of out of day Polaroid films, which i need to use, (i do wanna save some for Christmas) so i think some Polaroid photos need to be taken.
i hope life is treating you all well. i am counting down the days until Xmas! aha fun times with the family are needed. it will be nice to watch Xmas movies and play board games.

*update; i am so upset Ali and Brian have been knocked out of strictly come dancing, they were the true winners, and should have made the final..i love you too so much!!! i really need to get my tour tickets as soon as i can.
