Ps- 3 pics taken in London

Nothing to say!!!

I've been very lazy updating my blog lately, cos nothing exciting is really happening on my life at the moment!
Work has been controlling my life in the past few weeks : been very busy, often working late..
I've got no holidays planned....
My friends and I have started to talk about Christmas ( Scary!! )
..and on weekends we watch the rugby!!! World Cup taking place at the moment in France and today we've watched 2 matches :

England V Australia - England won ( big surprise and upsetting news to my Aussie friends!)

and at the moment watching

New Zealand V France - match hasn't finished yet, but reckon New Zealand ( they are the best rugby team in the world ( apparently).. *

A few times, I've started posting and unavoidably it becomes a whinge about work, I dont want to do that this time!! Last outburst was quite enough to amuse a few people!!! :p

However there's nothing else to be said, the picture above pretty much describes my feelings at the moment!!!

Bye for now!!!
Izzy

* by the time i finished writing this post the matched ended and guess what - FRANCE WON - 20 -18 to France - a shocking day!!!

Aries - Your Love Profile

Your positive traits: You're quite the charmer. You've got the wit and attitude to attract almost anyone you meet. Out spoken and honest, any date knows how they stand with you. Fearless, independent, and willing to try anything twice - your dates should expect the unexpected. Your negative traits: You tend to be vain, and you expect your partner to feed that vanity often with complements. Hot tempered and impulsive, you've occasionally ended things ... only to regret it later. You're obsessed with being the best, most loved girlfriend or boyfriend your sweetie's ever had. Your ideal partner: A risk taking, free spirit like yourself - who can keep up with your latest wild child antics. Someone stylish, attractive, and fit... who can keep you attracted for months. Is hard to get - and lets you pursue things. You prefer to be the chaser, not the one being chased. Your dating style: Wild, unpredictable, fun, and daring. Your ideal date may involve a couple motorcycles or naked skydiving. Your seduction style: Honest and direct - you have no need for romance or much foreplay. Show off. You like to show your lover how you're the best ever. Ambitious. You often like to go all night - or aim for multiple orgasms. Tips for the future: Start to believe in second and third chances. You don't have to dump them so fast. Savor the process. Sometimes the best part of falling in love is taking things in slow motion. Let go of comparisons. If someone's with you, then you've already one. Stop worrying about exes. Best color to attract mate: Red Best day for a date: Tuesday

Notting Hill Carnival

Last weekend was a Carnival weekend, its the biggest street party in Europe, 2nd biggest in the world after Rio, and its absolutely great.
The carnival started taking place in 1965 and even tho it hasn't been short of problems throughout the years, its an even that I highly recommend to def experience London in a unique manner.
For a little more info:

I didn't make it this year, but I have been 3 times before, and although security its a big issue it certaintly doesnt stop anyone to have a fantastic time.Londoners reservations is certainly forgotten about during these 3 days of partying.

Here are some pics I have taken in the past:

SONNET XVIII,Shakespeare

Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?
Thou art more lovely and more temperate:
Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,
And summer's lease hath all too short a date:
Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,
And often is his gold complexion dimmed,
And every fair from fair sometime declines,
By chance, or nature's changing course untrimmed:
But thy eternal summer shall not fade,
Nor lose possession of that fair thou ow'st,
Nor shall death brag thou wander'st in his shade,
When in eternal lines to time thou grow'st,
So long as men can breathe, or eyes can see,
So long lives this, and this gives life to thee.

ps-pic taken in Portugal in '05

Where is home??

I just came back from Portugal a couple of days ago, I spent a week there with B.
It was so fantastic taking B with me to Portugal.
It was good to catch up with a few people, it was good to be there, enjoy the fantastic weather, enjoy the great food, definitely great to see my brother.

And it was obviously sad to leave..

This trip was not short of little problems,the worst one being accommodation- we were meant to stay with a friend of mine, but her house was a building site, so that didnt really happen(story too long to explain), so I found myself in a situation where I felt like a tourist in my own country, after calling quite a lot of places we eventually found a guest house to stay for a few nights which just meant that most of supposed spending money was for accommodation.
At one point, I felt that once my brother is sorted out and comes over I wont really have any reason to go Portugal anymore.

Its home because I lived there all my life and I love the country,but there's nothing there for me any longer. When I get there, I find myself calling London home.

So.. where is home??? I guess London is home..although Portugal will always be "home" because its part of who I am, its runs in my blood - many a time people tell me I def have a temper of a Med/latino person - and I love the country, but at this point in time London is my home and B and all the friends I've made here(some still around and some already gone) are my family.

Time for goodbyes and hellos

The last month has been mostly about saying farewell.

Farewell to work colleagues who have found new jobs, farewell to our dosser who has finally left after 4 months living at my house and Farewell to our friends James who is going back to New Zealand and Deb and Del http://www.delboys.blogspot.com/ who have decided to move to Australia after quite a few years living a travellers life in London.

These past few days have been a time to go down memory lane a bit, remembering how much all our lifes have changed since first arriving in London (myself in Dec '00).

Its an exciting and sad time for me right now.

In 6 years - we travelled alot, we drunk a hell of a lot more ( :p ), spent many a weekend at the redback and Walkabout ( a few long lasting relationships started at the walkie - who would have known???!!! ), we were each others family, some of us got married and had kids (go Deb and Kim!!!) and we made forever lasting friendships.

These guys will be sorely missed and even tho I'm excited for them and for the new life that expects them down under, I cant help but feel like I've "lost" some of the closest friends I've had in my life!

It also time to welcome to the world and say hello to little Felicity and little Emily who were born in the last couple of weeks, one in Oz and the other in England!!

Rain, rain, rain...

This was probably the most miserable bank holiday weekend ever!! Weather wise that is... its just rained and rained and rained was windy and more freaking rain.
I am NOT a winter person, I dislike winter with a passion (like many other people in the world). I'll never get used to this weather, even if I live in London for the rest of my life ( which is highly unlikely), I'll never get use to the weather!!!

I still managed to get ridiculously drunk both on Friday night and on Sunday night, bring on sambucca/Springbok to make the world look like a better place. : ) : )

And now its back at work, for what feels like a long week already.

Been awhile....

Hey...
Its been a busy month, havent really been at home on the weekends, been camping, visit family in Thetford and apart from that work, work, work!!!

Lately the longer I stay away from my house the better, its hasnt really been that great, we've had someone staying at our place for the past 3 and a half months and its driving me absolutely insane, it would be ok if i actually got on well with this person( but that's not the case- we just about manage to be civil) and I've now just become a complete bitch and keep conversation to a minimum...its really difficult and I wont go into to many details, as if I did this would be a very very very very long post!!! Just to make things clear - B and I live in a not very bit 1 bedroom flat ( perfect for 2 PEOPLE not 3), the whole point of doubling our rent was because we were sick of sharing and we wanted our own place.. well, that didnt last for long.
I dont feel like I cant really say anything cos this guy is really good friends with B ( like school friends, they have known each other for a long long time) and if I say something I will probably completely blow my lid and then say things I will probably regret, placing B in a very awkward position.
We finally got a leaving date ( 9th June ), BRING IT ON!!!!

Anyway, this is my rant for the day. Apologies to all!!!! ;p

Work is getting quite busy, every day stuff plus small projects creeping in, I quite enjoy the projects side of it, keeps me busy and its always something different going on!!

We've just had a little move round in our office, which was made so ridiculously complicated that at one point it was hilarious to stand back and watch, figure out phones numbers its really not rocket science... well, so I thought until I saw how it was dealt with last Friday in my office!!! Funniest thing, the person that was organising it completely refused any sort of suggestions, so we all just stood back and laughed at how everything was being made so complicated.

I'm just listening a conversation between a colleague of mine and a customer whilst typing this post.. and oh my word!!!! I wish I could record it and play it back,if my colleague says : "sort of thing" one more time i think the client is going to flip!!! WHAT A TOOL THIS GUY IS, how the fuck was he ever promoted to the level he's on now???? - Mind Boggles!!!!

Will post some pics of my camping weekend shortly!!!

A corny moment...

This is my favourite song at the moment.. lyrics probably a bit corny!!! But hey, nothing wrong with corny, most nice things in the world are corny.. ;p

"There was a time I had nothing to give

I needed shelter from the storm i was in
And when it all got too heavy

You carried my weight

And i want to hold you

And i want to say

That you are all that i need

For you,I give my soul to keep

You see me, love me

Just the way i am

For you i am a better man

I said you are the reason

For everything i do

I'd be lost,

so lost without you

Under the stars

At the edge of the sea

There's no one around

No one but you and me

We'd talk for hours

As time drifts away

I could stay here forever

And hold you this way

Coz you are all that i need

For you, I give my soul to keep

You see me, love me

Just the way i am

For you i am a better man

I said you are the reason

For everything i do

I'd be lost, so lost without you"

London

This last weekend was spent walking around visiting tourist spots around London, so much left to visit tho.

I have been living in this city for 6 and a bit years and its so easy to forget how amazing this place actually is.

As I was walking around with my cousin and it was her first time in London, it was cool to see her reaction to the Palace,Big Ben, Westminster Abbey. She took lots of photos, and I couldnt help myself so had to take a few, the above photo was taken a few months ago on a night out, pics of this weekend will be posted soon.

Life is too short to waste it worrying about everything, I guess I just have to keep reminding myself that in spite of all its problems I actually live in one of the most amazing cities in the world and take time to actually admire everything around me.

Office politics/gossip get involved or stay well clear??!!!

I guess every single working environment will suffer from the much dreaded gossip/ politics.. What to do in a situation where one ends up getting involved???
Well... I'm at the best of times quite an outspoken person so against best judgement in occasions I end up being quite honest and giving people my opinion on the matter in hand. I have to say that not always goes down well, but hey, doesn't really bother me most times.

However, due to a few changes happening round here, the office politics/gossip reached an all time high where common sense just tells me "stay well clear or you'll end up getting into shit over your big gob!!"

It's proving to be really difficult for me to keep my mouth shut, I have had to bite my tongue in occasions(quite a few occasions in fact), especially as a recently promoted person is getting a head so big, I don't think it'll actually fit up you know where any longer, also considering that I have known this person for most of the time I have worked here and we actually had a good working relationship, I'm finding really difficult to handle his self-importance when its not really justified ( major power trip )- and just to make this clear, everyone in this office is having a problem with it - so much so, that I don't think most of us can actually hold a conversation with this person without being sarcastic ( but he wont even notice- self important and dumb, talk about great combinations).

Apologies for rambling a bit..

So.. office gossip. Yes??!!!! Lets see how I manage....

Speak soon,

Isabel

Back at work today from a weeks leave that was spent in Portugal.
It was good to be home as it always is…

After 6 hours travelling on the way there,as TAP decided to cancel the flight and book every passenger on a different flight that was going to stop over in Dublin, what was suppose to be a 2.5 hours flight turned into 6 hours. Needless to say that none of the passengers were pleased about it, specially with the attitude of the cabin crew which seem to think that it was fine not to give us any info whatsoever about what was going on.

Anyway, finally landed made my way to my friend’s house completely knackered and wishing my life away.

The reason for this trip was to actually sort a few things out – which seems to be the main reason y I spend so much time in Portugal these days - I was getting up around 7.30 am every day and rushing around between trying to see David and sort all the stuff out and having a few annoyed moments with the different bureaucratic bullsh8t that they kept throwing at me…
To sum it up, I’m actually happy to be back at work, don’t get me wrong, I loved seeing David, but I was sooo tired by Friday, I was welcoming Monday to come back to work. - CANT BELIEVE I'M ACTUALLY SAYING THIS!!!

Planning my next holiday now - NOT Portugal - wanna go somewhere nice to chill out but not get bored ( beach, but also enough nature or city life to keep me occupied ) ... So, if anyone has any suggestions, feel free..

Speak soon,

Isabel
