One Month Mark

So Monday was the beginning of my ONE MONTH MARK of school work... and tomorrow is my ONE MONTH MARK of NANNY LIFE!!! Woot Woot Woot can you all tell that im uber excited. But this weekend I came to a few conclusion that made me a bit sad. On Sunday we went Camden because it was a beautiful day, 20 degrees and sunshine. But on our way there I was thinking this is going to be the last time I get to go to Camden, which kind of hit me. Ive always had the chance to do whatever I want in London whenever I want this year and it was weird to wrap my head around the fact that I will not be going to my favourite spots ever again (well for a LONG TIME!) It really made me stop and appricate all that London has provided me with, I have just become also used to my life here and thus its so accessable you kind of forget how different it is from life at home - im gonna miss the activites Rita and I do in London on the weekends.

However its hard because in saying im gonna miss it I feel like im a traitor to home but im not, I can miss her but want to be home at the same time. HAHAHA can you tell I have mx feelings about coming to an conclusion.

Anyways Friday and Saturday Rita and I went out and had a movie night with two other girls she works with which was super nice.

Other than that Ive started to pack up my life - my room and drawers. Ive sorted threw some clothes I have to get rid of seeing that I have way to much stuff for my weight limit. It may seem soon but the month of July im SOOO BUSY that I wont want to be packing in my spare time and thus to reduce stress im doing starting it now with the stuff that I dont need from now until then!

PS --> RITA IS TAKING THE SAME FLIGHT HOME WITH ME
thats the best news ever seeing that were transfering and leaving at 6am it will be nice to have some company!

xx
CHEERS
thats it for now!

DUCK POND

(this last one is when anna almost fell in HAHA!)

This morning is a gorgious day so Matilda and I took Anna and Bella to the duck pond with some older bread! It reminded me of the trailer park pond *HEART*

We took some really cute pictures and since Im like a proud mom I want to show you all my little girl and her friend!

Heres the fun we had...
This week has been really good with the girls, Livy has been in a positive mind setting and when its like that we can always have fun. This morning she got her self up with NO FIGHTING which is rare, and it made for a great start to the day!

Edinburgh, Scotland

SORRY that im slacking again in the Blog department, but Ive starting writing in my journal again and keeping up two tabs on my adventures is getting a bit tedious BUT I still enjoy sharing so bare with me!

RITA AND I WERE REUNITED AGAIN...
i know were together all the time but this is the first time since March that we have travelled together and it was oh so fun of course!

So I started my weekend off well because Sara and I agreed to switch dates to work so I had Friday off and now work this Saturday because they are having a dinner party and need help with the girls: so I get to do swimming lessons with Isabella Saturday!!! Thus Friday I got to sleep in which was NEEDED seeing that I us nannies went out on Thursday of course and had a blast of course! Ive been thinking a lot lately about the fact that in less than two months Im going to leave them forever, which is sad. Its going to be reality really soon because Kylie is going home for a month holiday on the 27th and we will just miss eachother before I leave - so this Thrusday shes having a get together at her house! Sorry I got a little off track there, anywhere Friday I had to work at the school though so I was up for that at 12, and Livy has asked to volunteer on her school trip this afternoon after working lunch duty, so that will be interesting haha but Im a sucker and said yes lol so we are going to the marsh for enviroment week.

We got to Edinburgh and found out hostel and went to a local bar that was across the street. Upon arrival we met a Courtney from Vancover who was backpacking alone and seemed to be missing home and lonely so we invited her out and went for a few drinks, and then off to bed for our busy weekend! Saturday we woke up and walked to the Royal Mile the main street in Edinburgh. From there we headed to Edinburgh Castle which had amazing views and then went to walk the Grassmarket and the Royal Mile. We stopped at a really cool pub that gave us a backpackers discount which is always welcome! After a great afternoon we went home for a small nap and to get ready for our night out. Saturday night was my favourite part (usually is) we had a great dinner and went our way on our own pub crawl. Went to a pub with live scotish folk music which was my favourite and a dance bar called Frankestein that had a very cool venue with a LIVE monster (it was ritas fav) and then stopped at a few other pubs before calling it a night. Sleeping in a hostel with 6 other girls can be interesting and you get so characters... Rita and I laughed because at like 6am a girl feel off her top bunk and her friend didnt even get up to help her!
PS. we also went to a Whiskey Tour on Saturday and saw the worlds largest Whiskey collect that had 3400 bottles collected over 35 years!

Sunday we climbs a large mountain beside Aurther Seat a volcano that is 350 million years old - this also gave us an amazing view! Then we just walked the Royal Mile again and got a nice lunch with a view of the Castle! We were so tired on this trip, for an unknown reason but it was great anyways. I caught up with my sleep last night, I went to bed for a quick nap after work at 7:30 and didnt get up until this morning!!! IT WAS THE BEST!

I just got a msg from my hairdresser Trisha who is visiting with friends and we might get together Friday! Then I babysit saturday and Rita and I will do stuff to fill in the brakes. Im starting to really stress out about getting life ready to leave here but also get ready life to start there!!!

AHHH August 6th is coming so soon!
Oh, PS i booked my flight home August 6th!
Next monday is my ONE MONTH MARK for work!!! OMG CRAZY
(sorry about the lack of posts again... i know there few and fair between but im getting supper preoccupied these days!)

(paragliding)

First I shall start with a few pics from Switzerland, and finish up that aspect of this entry before I get into the subject that is KARMA!

Friday and Saturday we def. more reserved that my first two days in Switzerland, they were my me days which were nice but ive realized althought i want to be an independant person and that was one of the reasons for taking this year for me - independant doesnt mean alone and thus i love socialization! But none the less it was nice to just relax, this was the first trip ive been on I think other than maybe Venice where I felt like I was on vacation because it wasnt rushed and it was just calm. So Friday I went walked half way and trained half way back to Lautenbrunnen and found a few nice spots and just wrote letter, made bracelets (I found a cute bead shop and returned back to my 16 year old self making hemp!). I also went to another waterfall that you could walk up and stand behind kind of which was really cool... a freaking tiring hike seeing that I had just walked for a long time but it was worth it. I was exhuasted because my roommates were up making so much noise at like 6am but who can complain when sharing a 6 man room! That night I just stayed in and hung out with some people who were staying at our hostel. Saturday was along the same lines I exploded central Interlaken some more and then went back to the hostel and chatted with a nice Kiwi who was doing his own paragliding on this trip. Got back home for like 11:30 Saturday... fantastic trip!!!

Sunday I slept in and reorganized my life but then it was beautiful out so Rita and I met up in Greenwich for a picnic in the park. This is where the Karma kicked in, on the walk to the tube station lets get an image in your heads first: I was wearing white linen pants and a dark blue tshirt and then BAM BAM BAM a bird SHIT ON ME! After Ive had hundreds of laughs at Rita and Cassie it happened to me, when I was walking ALONE. I had to go into a local coffee short and use there napkins and wetwipes and get it off... then I was shit stained all day! (note: if your laughing right now beware because the karma is coming for you!)

Also I never can remember what Ive written about or not: BUT I gave my notice for leaving... my last day is July 22nd, and I'll be home AUGUST 6TH (the flight isnt booked but ill make it offical this week when I book it!)

CAN YOU BELIVE ITS JUNE GEEZ I CANT!

Enjoy hope its nice there, today is the hottest day of the year to date!
