at work its been unbelievably busy. its been absolutely tiring but worth it as we'll be all getting bonuses for it - yay! jez came back a few days ago from his four months trip in africa, all his stories have been making me want to do the same, just the money factor is pretty crap- you need a lot to kick start the whole thing, tickets and accommodation is costly. maybe next summer? i'd love to go there and teach english in an orphanage in ginger. gosh.. that would be amazing!
my trousers are in the tumble-dryer, starting work at 5pm till close today. on saturday we started running out of ice and yesterday we literally run out of ice. how shameful? but it was a hectic saturday to start with - a wedding from 11:30am till close plus all the other usual customers that come in during the whole day, plus the weather was amazingly beautiful.. so i'm not surprised it was so damn busy but we were soo not expecting it!
i'm in constant touch with gary. end of story [for now].
i'm off to the one stop shop (in the next village) to get some jam.
i bought my ticket home for the 11th september...i can't believe it's so soon!

confused but happy
ok, workwise, it's still pretty much sucks, however more hours should be appearing by next week as a few people are going on holiday. i'm actually enjoying working behind the bar again.
on another front - i'm back in touch with gary. i dont know if i should cry or smile. i'm so confused about him. time will tell what is going on but i'm guessing it's all no good. i'm not getting my hopes up, i've learned my lessons not to give guys a second chance.
i have two days off this week and i have literally nothing to do, i sit all day and watch all the dvd's here. but i shall go down for a pimms in a minute. i love my pimms!
i wish i were in cambridge though...

misery
what should i start from? i have no idea.
my stay hasn't been at all what i expected it to be..
i left sunny poland and flew to rainy england on wednesday.
started work on friday, 6 hrs. yesterday i was supposed to work 4 hrs but did only 1,5hrs as there were too many people behind the bar and not enough people actually in the bar.. so they sent me home. so all in all i've done 7,5hrs in two days. i suspect my pay is going to be the lowest ever. i've no idea what to do. actually, i've started looking for other jobs in cambridge, but havent managed to find anything as there's not much available on the net, i'd be better off going from door to door to every shop and handing in my cv.. but i cnat do that as a) i dont have my cv here :/ and b) i'm not in cambridge but in holywell... http://maps.google.com/maps?f=l&hl=en&geocode=&q=the+old+ferry+boat&near=Holywell,+Saint+Ives,+Cambridgeshire,+UK&ie=UTF8&ll=52.320914,-0.04034&spn=0.022664,0.074844&z=14
so ladies and gents... summer ain't so fun as i expected it to be.. i'm quite disappointed with this whole situation.
i hope you're all enjoying your summer though! do get back to me and tell me how you all are.
much love.

so this is it. i'm leaving tomorrow [EDIT: TODAY!!] and i havent packed one single thing. aren't i the best? guess packing will have to be left till tomorrow morning i'm so tired right now, i'm heading off straight to bed.
and yes, i still don't want to go.

and yes, i cut my hair even shorter (hey - i am leaving for two whole months - watch it grow back in no time!).
and yes, i'm going to bed and thank you to all who wrote me very kind and cheerful texts for a good journey and for me to have a great time in the uk.
THANK YOU !! i willl try to blog as soon as i get there. cheerio folks!

when all the world is a hopeless jumble
i'm dropping in here to say.. i dont have time to post!
how is it possible?
easy - being preoccupied with my parents coming back home today, i've had to get the house spick and span. my evenings had been filled with friends coming over for a drink or two and thus, rendering me helpless!
but seriously.
i finally got down to ironing at 0:30am just an hour and a half ago, and i just finished.
i haven't been feeling well to tell you the truth. my stomach is aching and it's not gastritis this time. i think i've just been seriously over eating (making supplies for the summer i suppose..). and i still do not want to go to work for the summer. but i know that my attitude will change once i get there and see everyone again. i hope i dont forget anything.. but i always do. it's so me to forget the most important stuff like pj's, hairbrush, charger, you name it - i've probably forgotten it!
i hope everyone's enjoying their summer.
i'll try and post a few times during my stay in th uk, but i cant promise anything. even though there's wi-fi in the pub, i dont have a laptop (surprise surprise).
fingers crossed my summer wont be as bad as i'm imagining it to be.
nighty night all!

i feel alright
i'm making it a habit of blogging whenever i endure a problem - today will not be like that. i'll tell of what i encountered today... but who would be interested in that? hmph. well, i'll go along and do it anyway.
i went to see my beautician at 11:20 and came out of the salon 2 hours later. wow, i was pampered so much i felt so good. made me feel really feminine.. now, now.. the last time i went was 2 years ago and damn i missed the whole experience but my lovely and thoughtful mother booked and paid for my appointment! that was so sweet of her. however, straight after i had my visit i had to go running for my bus to katowice to make it for my dermatologist appointment. gosh - hectic. even though i arrived just before 3pm i got back home at 7pm flat. talk about spending 2 hours in a waiting room, only to pay 80zl and be told that everything's fine and to keep on using the same products, and to come back in september. great.
got home, actually ate. watered front and back garden, sat down and watched satc (i'm addicted - i know) and finally decided it's time for bed.
i'll tan tomorrow. i need it so badly. i'm horrendously pale. makes me look sick.
do not disturb tomorrow. i'll be up at 9 though if anyone wants to be in touch ;)
i'm finding it awfully disturbing this silence at home. just me and the cat (who wakes me in the morning - my never-failing alarm clock). no one to talk to. its horrible. but the parentals will be here a week from now...and i'll be off, wow, time has flown.
woot woot.
hello, i've waited here for you
everlong
come down
and waste away with me
down with me
and i wonder
when i sing along with you
if everything could feel this real forever
if anything could be this good again
