I.NEED.A.VODKA.

Some of you have noticed the lack of quality posts (or posts at all) of late.

Here is part of an explanation;

In one month and 23 days I will be moving to London.

Am I totally clueless when it comes to London in general? Yes

Have I got enough money to get by incase I don’t find a job straight away? No

Do I still have sooo many things to buy before I leave? Yes

Am I ready to walk away from my family and friends for at least 8 months? No

Should I have paid my debt off when I first started this blog (like I said I would)? Yes

Do I, a control freak, have any plans past the 2nd Feb when I arrive in London? No

Am I aware that I have no one to blame but myself? YES!!!!!

So someone, please remind me again why the feck (f*ck in a pommy accent) I am moving to London.

Attn: Bill Gates...if you happen to stumble across this post whilst doing your computer thang that you do - please please donate $1 million (or a million pounds - I'm not fussy) to me...(ok, ok I'm totally kidding - I know there are many many more worthy causes than me)

P.S - I am in the process of getting a London blog up and running...which will just be a more personal blog - pics and just a general update of what I've been doing and where I've been going whilst I'm over there. Its not an overly private thing, but I dont think I'm going to link it to this blog- so if you'd like the link just let me know.

Karina, definitely email me the link to your London blog! I'll be thinking about you and this big change coming up. I know you're nervous but I think you will succeed more than you could imagine!

Get yourself on the Shiny Fashion forums www.shinyfashionforum.com - there's loads of Brit girls on there and quite a few seem to live in London so I'm sure they can help you out with any London-questions you have.

london is fantastic! i love manhattan, but i would certainly swap it for an extended stay over there. what's nice is that you'll have enough time there to really get to know it and find all the little things you love there. i'd love to read about your adventures, please pass the link along!

Give me a link!

When I was 21 I moved by myself to New Zealand. It was the scariest thing I ever did, and the most rewarding. I'm back at home now, but now I know I can move anywhere in the world and I'll be fine.

You'll have a blast. And next time I'm on the UK (aside from over Xmas), I'll look you up!

Sounds fun to me (but I like things to be unplanned)! How do you go about moving to London, like in terms of finding a place to live and passport stuff and everything? I'd love to do that when I graduate, but I have no idea how.
