So the other day. Aka like a week ago. I Skyped Wilson street and they posted 5 million photos of me, bed head/twilight t shirt/double chin and all, on their blog. THANKS GUYS.
MY TURN:
Whenever Jenny Skypes me she mostly just enjoys making faces at the camera and looking at herself. Don't get me wrong, I find this amusing also, but sometimes I wonder why she doesn't just go stand in front of a mirror for an hour.
Roxanne did not want to look at me at all. Maybe she hates me now? Maybe she has forgotten who I am???
Sigh.
As I mentioned before, I am currently flat hunting. Today I got my second "Do some weird moneygram transfer thing and then I'll let you look at my house" email. I can't figure out exactly how they are trying to scam me as I have no idea what a moneygram is and they aren't asking for my bank acc details BUT I am pretty certain it's a scam. Maybe they just want to murder me?
Flat hunting in this town is fucking hard. Firstly rent is super expensive, and then every room you look at there are like 20 other people who got there first. Sometimes you just show up to a viewing and find everyone there at the same time so then you barely have a chance to talk to the people you are trying to make want to live with you and when you do you have to compete with people who actually have personalities. I mean, I'm not super impressive at making first impressions. I TAKE A WHILE TO WARM UP. But I'm even worse in group situations so PRETTY MUCH FUCKED.
Maybe it's like that in NZ too, if you're just tryna find a room in an established flat. I wouldn't know.
I looked at a place tonight which was pretty sweet. Cheap, close to a Tube that will take me right to work and good flatmates by the sounds of things. I won't get it though. I'm probably gonna end up sharing with the 2 Taiwanese students up the road and paying fuck loads for the pleasure.
Also, the washing machine at my cousins flat is broken and I am running out of socks.
Was that better Lucy?
Much better. Highlights = lack of socks and upside down Junie photos.
ReplyDeleteGOOD WORK.
Erin you should probably bring eclairs to any flat viewing. People like eclairs. Or say that you are related to like Peter Jackson or Lucy Lawless. People like famous people. If it makes you feel any better, I would totally let you live in my flat if I had one in London?
ReplyDeleteTHANKS GABS.
ReplyDeleteI think I'll just buy myself some eclairs to eat to help me deal with all the rejection.
I do have a good PJ story to tell them though!
every mention of moneygrams is like a ray of hope and joy in the otherwise pitch black darkness that is the internet
