A Day of Good News

I have a job!!!! I finished my last final!!!!!  Woot Woot!

When I return from Malta on Saturday, I have to schedule my training as a call center fundraiser...glamorous I know!  Set the caller ID now, because I will be getting paid crap to call and beg you for your hard earned cash!  Ok, to be honest I am not that excited about this job, in fact I think it has alo of potential to become my nightmare but I am excited to get a paycheck, even if it is minimal.  More money= more travel!  Not too mention I need some cash fast to replenish my account after all the birthday presents I bought for the boy...

Just as I got the good news on the job front, I was prepping for my last Uni final.  A two hour test that meant a 4 month break from school!  After a two week break from class, it was near impossible to motivate myself to re-open the books, but I managed to struggle through a few hours of revision.

And just like our last day of class, we were off to celebrate the end of exams.  Our class joined another class (a semester ahead of us) for some drinks at the school pub and then to Highbury Park.  A couple of beers at the park were enough to ease some of the awkwardness between the two groups, we have spent the semester in our own groups, rarely joining together for socializing.  As we sat in a large circle drinking and eating, I noticed another American accent, a girl from New Jersey and I quickly bonded over mutual hangouts.  My new buddy and I have much more in common than close locations, we both found a prime outdoor pee spot (yes, we are both classy but what else are you supposed to do when drinking in a park?) , we both fell for European boys, and we knew how to drink more than our European classmates!  It wasn't a surprise that we were the firsts to hop the fence to play in the kiddie park, it also wasn't a surprise when I woke up with bruises from my fall over the fence!

After 3 or 4 hours a good drinking, we moved the party to a pub for the remainder of the night.  It is always amazing to me how many different cultures I am surrounded by each day, we may have trouble understand each others accents but we all understand what shots and a band mean.  Unfortunately since I live an enternity away from everything central, I had to leave the party early and catch the tube back to the boy.  As glad as I am to be done school, I am slightly sad that I won't get to see everyone as often as before.
