In which I am in London

I’m sorry I have delayed again in writing another blog post. I was having a pretty bad week and I felt sure that whatever I did write would end up being tainted by misery and one sad blog post is enough for a while.
I will mention that during the week my computer crashed and was out of internet for five whole days. It was very stressful. Mostly because I thought it would never be fixed, but here I am! On the internet. I also have an interview… I know I said I had had nothing and here I am. In London with an interview in a few days.
So I thought I would ignore the bad things in the last week and do a little mention of some of the highlights.
My sister came to visit (which is in itself great) and brought a whole load of books. I mentioned previously that I have a lot, but I would say that she has nearly double mine. So I read some wonderfully predictable teen stories about a spy with excellent puns for titles.
And then a less predictable interesting teen fantasy about a poison taster. I recommend them both for some fun reading.
I painted my nails green and then orange
I gained a travel spirograph, which is totally awesome. I mentioned it ages ago on the post about my spirograph dress so I got my sister to hunt through her stuff and find me it.
I carefully bought my camera to London with me to take photos and blog whilst I am here. However I am an idiot because I left the cable which allows me to upload photos behind. Therefore the spirograph set above is not mine but from a site called samstoybox.com with pictures of lots of spirograph. However it looks pretty much like this in different colours with a few more wheels. I think the guy on the site would be jealous because I have all the pieces and paper! :P
And today? I saw my boyfriend for the first time in weeks. So happy things do happen.
