Busier Than A Bee

I can't believe it's already the second week of October. wow.

Friday night was a definite milestone. Interns night out after the first week of work. Just a preview for our Paris trip together at the end of the month. In a nutshell it was rediculously amazing. We ended up at kavanagh's...met the queen's regement (the british cavalry boys) danced...sang...snogged in the corner. on the dance floor. at the bar. in the corner again*coughashcough*....(yes, i just used a harry potter word. what?) it was good fun though. definitely more chill than thursdays. less people, more conversation and interaction with other kids there. big plus.

saturday i was kind of sick. yeah...not fun. signed up for Ethos Gym :) yay.

Sunday though, sunday was awesome. i went down to the Thames, and found my way to the Globe, but couldnt get a tour bc there was a current performance. no biggee...went to the Tate Modern Museum of Art instead and walked around there by myself, which was nice and relaxing. im an art geek as you may know. saw a few Andy Warhol's, jackson pallock's...always a pleasure. :) i took a stroll along the river walk and grabbed some dinner...then waited for the crew to get there so we could go see our show 'Love's Labours Lost' at 4. Wow, talk about an awesome experience. We were groundlings for a few hours. The backpain was worth it. The costumes, the acting, the gorgeous irish chap playing one of the leads...it was all incredible.

This week at work has been busy. We have a lot of work to do on the Prizewinners' Dinner coming up, for all the yachters and sailors who have won races, rallies, etc over the past year with the club. Today Jonathan and I spent nearly the whole day sorting out the trophies to take down to Harvey's to get engraved. I got to go on my first london cabbie ride. sweet. I also dropped part of a trophy and nearly broke the bloody thing, and it turns out it was worth 3000 quid (pounds). I wanted to cry. So embarassed. but everythings alright. water under the bridge.

Last night i went to see The Editors and the Ra Ra Riots (who are actually from syracuse) They were pretty sick. the crowd over here obviously LOVES the Editors, and went nuts for them. Scott's work got us in backstage and vip, so that was wicked cool too. felt almost like i was back home working a show. except no load in or load out :-D Talked briefly with the rarariots manager, and one of the guys in the band. they seem really chill and i think we should look into them maybe in the spring or something. they're very different. electric cello and violin girls, and then a typical four guy set as well, bass-guitar-drums-lead/piano. really really cool new sound. mix of indie almost ska, but not. it was like sublime meets yellowcard meets academy is... ish. haha.

I'm exhausted and a little cranky because i havent had time to run a bunch of errands i need to get on top of. but thats life. i feel like im getting back into the busy body swing of things again. I'm extremely jealous im missing out on this amazing weather you kids are having back in the states right now. you all better be at the beach soaking it up for me. i think in the next few days im going to compile a list of things i miss most, and i want you to use that as a check list to make sure you take advantage of and do in my honour.

I love you all and miss you more.
