I have been neglecting my blog. Oops. So I have a lot to write about… Last week Sunday, Jessica and I traveled to Oxford for the day. It was so fun! We got double-decker bus passes that we could use to hop on and off the bus all day to take us to different parts of town. When we first got on the bus, the first exciting thing I saw was the business school building. It wasn’t quite as cool as Tippie, but it was still pretty impressive. We got off in several ...

Today at work I prepared a collection of make-up to send to an artist for his next photo shoot. I wish I knew who the photo shoot was for because the recent photo shoots have been with Lady Gaga and Elton John. I had to pick the best 2 photos out of about 6 from Lady Gaga’s photo shoot to send to L’Oreal stores around the world. I love my job. I also now know what body lotion and make-up Lady Gaga uses (Kiehl’s Crème de Corps and shu uemura foundation mous...

We decided to go to Sainsbury, which is pretty much the equivalent of WalMart. Sainsbury was in a part of town that seemed to be mostly occup...

This weekend has been the craziest, most irresponsible, most random weekend of my life. It all starts with being homeless in Belgium on Friday. Jessica and I took a train from London to Brussels, with the intention of then taking a train from Brussels to Amsterdam. Much to our surprise, when we arrived in Brussels around 11:00 p.m., the last train to Amsterdam for the night had already left. We missed it. After panicking, then laughing, then almost crying, but ...

Today, it was 40 degrees and raining ALL day. I miss sunshine. It was a good day at work; I think I’m finally getting used to everything. After work I met up with Jessica at a pub and had my first infamous fish and chips. When Jessica and I sat down at the table, we opened a new jar of ketchup. Well, guess what, we finished almost the whole thing, between the two of us. It was disgusting, but hilarious. We drank these berry ciders that were the most delicious...
