this week has been horrendous when it comes to the weather. it's been so so cold. windy to such a degree that it blows me off my feet! no joke. i guess i really know what living 'up north' is like now.. the weather here is so much worse than in london.
had an afternoon of school today! woohoo. the kids there are so sweet! it really makes me want to kick my agency for not giving me more work - i love my job! how many people can say that about their job? i don't know why they don't send me to more places. ugh.
how scary is it that christmas is creeping up on us so quickly?! unbelievable how in two weeks we'll be home, scoffing down delicious food and spending time with the family. i've only done half of my shopping..! need to get a move on.
how is your xmas shopping going?

cold
feel the cold yet? i can!
it's getting so chilly here in the north of england, it's reminding me a bit of home!
so close to christmas now.. have been making my list and having to make major amendments..just can't afford what i'd like to get everyone...so need to reorganise and rethink pressies. but i love it. on a tight (very tight) budget but will make it worth while. i still can't get my head round as to how i haven't gone crazy without a job all this time...
seeing that christmas is creeping up ever so quickly, i must put up the tree soon and all my fairy lights! i cannot wait to sit by my piano in poland and play a few new tunes that i've been dying to try out. as well as all the traditional christmas carols! which anna and myself shall play (four hands! how else :) we know how to rock)
MrL has gone away for the week again.
i'll be visiting a school on tuesday and work thursday afternoon. nothing other than that. ugh. how great. my life officially sucks.
please week, bring me more work please...

first frost this year
before i woke up this morning MrL came running up the stairs telling my how icy everything was outside (at 5am ..yes that's the time he goes to work..ouch!). when i finally did get out of bed (8-ish) i leisurely got ready for the day and walked downstairs to see it all for myself, everything was covered in frost! it looked great - too bad i'm so lame at thinking in the morning - i didn't take any pictures. next time, i will.
yesterday was so different, and in a way, a virgin day of teaching! it felt so great to be in a classroom full of kids that were listening to me and learning. i love it. i'm genuinely upset that i don't get to do it every day. and in all my woe i listen to 'turning page' (Link!) which seems to be my all time favourite slow song ever. yes, i'm still fantasizing over the whole edward cullen/bella swan breaking dawn film. it wasn't the best part of the books (ie it was quite cheesy at times and very girly) but the music in the film totally caught my attention. loved it.
i also seem to have hit an all time low with my feelings and emotions. i'm not sure why. sometimes i think things could be better. sometimes i even think of going back home to poland and trying to save money. i guess that's what the whole problem is - money. i can't seem to get any here and i know if i moved back home again, it would be so easy.
in a way. i wish i had my own edward. someone who would unconditionally love me and be there for me always. maybe i'm being too mean, MrL is doing all that, but it's the emotional side that is a bit lacking. do men do that? it seems like he's 'grown out' of being passionate. a gentleman. a lover. and he's become more of a man. a primate. selfish...
we need to talk. (am i alone in this...?)
