I left at 8am, got there at 8:50am, changed to heels, tied my hair up and went upstairs to see Sohee, ahh she told me they all went to this free movie in imax/3d yesterday! DAMNIT. So she gave me some filing and highlighting info on the computer...and I met some people, met the people at the gym, went to the 10/10 meeting, just brief, drank tea, ate a muffin, had chicken curry for lunch...Yeah day flew by!

Wednesday. I had a long day of classes, I hate them!! Whenever I have classes, I just feel "bleh". I rather work, I get so much happier when I get off work...So classes from 2-730, then I went to meet up Vicki at Bond St, I checked out the forever 21, then we went to eat McD, to try it out, I got a chicken legend sandwich, Idk if they sell that in the states. It was fine, very fried though! Also visited London's M&M world! Just like NYC, except 100x better! So many things to take pics with!!! Then we also went to Uniqlo...omg the ads were all white people..the clothes were a bit pricer than HK...Then we returned to Vicki's new flat in Elephant and Castle around 9ish. Omg, it's a studio, so nice. Kitchen in the room...no one but one person has moved in, I guess it's going to be hard to meet people there, people lock their doors and all, maybe in the common room there will be people? She had no internet or TV so we just chatted then slept...ONE PILLOW, so hard to sleep!!

Thursday. Vicki and I woke up extremely early because she has enrollment at her uni at the london school of fashion...at 930am, so we woke at 720ish. We went to oxford circus..went to McD for breakfast, I got a bagel with egg/sausage/cheese with a cappuccino. She left earlier than me, so I just stayed and drank my coffee, finished my bagel..and people watched to see what kind of shoes people wear. Then I headed to take the tube at Bond St. Got a bit confused almost, lol, thought there was a straight tube to Gloucester, but there wasn't..Got to school at 10 and had Int. Mkt at 1030..-1:30. Then after that, I went to meet up with Vicki again, met her friend who was going to be visiting China tomorrow, she was trying to help her friend's mom buy a prada. After a bit, I left because I was tired, so Vicki left as well. I got home around 5pm. I actually walked to Tesco Express and saw the 297 bus coming..thought I was gonna miss it, I wanted to buy pepper but omg, this place didn't even sell it so I was like "wtf". Then I went back and caught the same bus!! YAYYY. I made shrimp/egg/salmon stir-fry. Then I just chilled...and watched some of my drama, haha. I finished my Omission drama, omg was bawling my eyes out, so bad cause in the morning i might get puffy eyes! Going to bed pretty early..work in the AM Again.

Friday. 7am Wakeups stinkk! At least it's not 6am, because I start a bit later today, at 10am. I made a Prosciutto sandwich..with no cheese cause i had none :( I left 5 mins before the bus came...at 855, rushed, the tube was delayed on the jubilee line, COME ON, it's only two stops!! I arrived at 10:03... YIKES...Good thing Sohee just finished her 10/10 meeting so it was okay. Made myself some hot chocolate..and started creating packets for new starters. It was like the starter's packet or something, okay I'm so off, my brain is clearly not working right now, forgot all the names of everything. So I had to print out a bunch of documents, forms they need to fill out and bring back, contracts and what not. Then packaged them and prepped them to be sent off. Lunch came, we had fish and chips! Of kourse it's not as good as garfunkel's cause it's been sitting there for a while..so not as crispy. Then made myself a latte and started creating new starter folders, for new workers, checking off the paper work they have signed and putting them in the right places in the folders. So many new hires...have to make sure everything is signed in case we get audited.  I think i spent a lot of time making sure we have all the docs..then I updated the logs in the computer of the private info of the new hires..and that they have all the stuff they need so we can glimpse instead of rummaging through papers. Oh yeah, i finally used the cappuccino/latte machine! OMG, we have soo many drinks yayy!! Don't need to work at starbucks!!! It's located in the executive lounge, for all those rich people...it's lovely there, they have baked good..all different, i had a cookie today..there was brownie too...

Oh god, my blog is going to be so boring..talking about my job..hahaa, but yeah, that was like the most interesting part of my day..Getting to see everyone's salary and stuff. So I got off at 4, after distributing the mail into people's mail boxes, ahh i don't know everyone's names! So i got the concierge to help me with like 2 of the letters, front desk was all busy. So then went to Tesco...spent the rest of my stipend on more food, got some sauces, hoisin, lemon grass, tom yum, steak! 4 slices, brie cheese, biscuits, noodle pack, pepper (OMG), and i think that's about it...so pricy! The guy in front of me bought so much stuff to make sushi..lol, he's gon have yummy dinner tonight! I made steak when I got back...so it was like 2 hours all together to get home/grocery shop. Omg i hate those babies and kids, and stupid adults that are always in the way at Tesco, LIKE I'M TRYING TO SHOP AND LEAVE..MOVE OUTTA MY WAY!!!  So I made this new type of steak with lemon grass sauce..and i put hoisin sauce in my egg, taste so much better..and had white rice for dinner.

I have no more uk money on me....have to exchange more when the rates go up..which means I'm probably staying in tonight..
