Ash's European Adventures: Kick Start Your Engines!!!

Hey all,

just gonna post a quick one again today! Things are going well. I start work tomorrow at the hostel...only down side is i am relocating to the sister hostel down the road to work there. its a really nice hostel though and only about a 2 min walk from the one i am in now, but it's stressful packing up and relocating all the time. however i intend to be there for the duration of my London trip. and i guess the hostel is better that it has security lockers - this one doesn't. My food got stolen today (a regular thing in hostels) so at least if i have a locker i can keep my food in there, along with all my valuables. Oh, and i got a fine for not taking back DVD's even though they didn't bloody work, and its like 52 pounds cos it was a week late! 52 fucking pounds! that is ridiculous. not paying that - for a week!?!?! what the? not too sure what to do about that. hmm..

(me at...you get the point)

but anyways moving on. I am very excited about Adam coming to London! it has been basically the only thing on my mind lately! We have so much planned and so much to do! and guess what! I just booked our flights to Ireland and our accommodation! So i have kick started the travelling plans! i have also booked our trip to Bath and Stonehenge! and we are slowly getting through our itinerary - but we'll do all that when he gets here! Adam will be leaving Australia on the 16th July and arriving on the 18th July! its gonna be jam packed from day one, but i have a really nice relaxing day planned for his arrival - I'm not that cruel!

So, Jess and Nik are now in Amsterdam, and have also kick started their travels. I am so excited for them! so its just me now, haaanging out, in London. it has been nice actually. i have been getting familiar with the area and i have become pro at budget shopping. today i went to Tesco's and got 3 bananas, 2 sesame bread rolls, and a tub or rice pudding, and i squished it all into the roll and it was SOOO nice, and so filling! and all for 1 pound 55! Pro i tell you! Spaghetti Hoops and Sausages for dinner tonight. I think i can comfortably say i have found my feet.
