Greetings!

What's new....

found a flat

got a job

applying for my visa

heading home for Christmas (Dec 14-29)

editorial review for the dissertation...I so did not make my personal deadline!!! Curses.

school bus full of friends. (finally!)\

cooked my first thanksgiving dinner and turkey...fun facts, if you cook it breast side down (unintentional of course) then the meat stays moist. Who knew? I looked online for quite sometime to gather a picture of a turkey going in or coming out of the oven, but I really couldn't tell one side from the next. The process was absolutely grosse, but I survived and dinner was good stuff.

See you tomorrow!

I Survived the North London Tornado!

So, I was sitting at the window as that is where I've been writing my lovely dissertation for the past weeks on end. Yes, the weather has been a little odd. Rain, sun, wind, thunder, lighting...I don't know what to expect, it's London.

This curiously strong wind swept in front of me and bug-eyed, I stared out the window, but slightly mesmerised, I just to see what would come next. It was a wind and sound and that I'd never heard before. It passed.

turning on the tV....Tornado rips through North London...i was kinda wishing to see Paul Moyer sitting behind the desk because I miss hearing his sensationalism, however, it wasn't that great.

Back to the Diss.
Cheers, L

Yes, I'm alive! I'm just really busy writing, finishing, editing this lovely dissertation. I missed my personal deadline of completing the Diss in the month of November. Met with my advisor and he said it's looking ok. Good enough. So, I probably won't be heading to the German Christmas markets as I was hoping to reward myself.

What's new?
London is getting colder.
Full-timers graduated...was just up in Edinburgh the past week to celebrate...way too much celebrating.
Job hunting for the New Year.
Flat hunting for the New Year.
Slowly compiling things for my UK visa. City of Torrance is going to hate me soon.
Headed home in 10 days...Holy Moses.

The headed home part is really tripping me out b/c that means the MBA has come and gone. While, I will not graduate until next June. I'm done! My grandiose ideas of travelling central/eastern europe have been put on hold, b/c this girl needs a job.

Speaking of jobs...somebody hook a sister up. International community please. I have a few appointments when I'm home so we'll see what comes of it.

Go see Casino Royale if you haven't already.
Check out the Magic Numbers if you want a nifty, new band to follow.
Don't think of coming to visit, there's no room at the Inn.

Christmas is coming, the goose is getting fat!
Cheers, L
