Musical Friday #136

EN: There goes another week. Honestly since mid February the last weeks all seem like a big blur, like I can't believe that has been X days or Y weeks that I've done a certain thing because it all feels like it happened just a couple of days ago. I'm loosing the track of time and before you know it next week is already my birthday >.<.

Shakira - Empire - New Single

Musical Friday #135

EN: Hello everyone! I haven't done a Musical Friday in a while for one side is due to the fact I haven't heard many interesting songs lately.

Anyways I'm getting to the point that I need to find a new job, something that gives me a fix salary so that I can get my own room and get properly settled because I'm still living with some family members of mine.

Other than that Spring is just around the corner but you can already feel it! The days last longer, the sky is blue, it's getting warmer... AH Happy Days! xoxo

2NE1- Happy - New Single

Musical Friday #134

EN: Hello everyone. Today I will only share one song with you. If you read my previous posts, specially the Musical Fridays ones, you will know that I haven't had the best of weeks lately and to add to this another family member of mine past away this week so that is one of the reasons for my lack of posts here.

For these past 12 days I was in (forced) vacations... shitties vacations ever... but tomorrow I'm going back to work, even if it isn't my dream job, I'm freaking happy to go back and see and talk to people because I'm currently home alone, so it's just Me, Myself and I. Since I live with some family members of mine, the person that passed away was in Portugal, so everybody is over there and I stayed behind.

So this next song I will dedicate to Fenela Dias, I will truly miss you.

Musical Friday #133

 EN: "Better things are coming" is what I've been telling to myself lately so I keep myself sane. 

Right now I'm on "vacation", one hell of a vacation this is. For these last three days I've been at home, why? Well on Wednesday and Thursday the weather was absolutely crap plus there was an underground strike. Yes the buses were still working but for me the Underground is the best thing. And today, when it's actually sort-of sunny I have to stay at home because of the builders that are fixing the walls and ceiling of the house and now the man just told me that he might have to come back on Monday to finish the job.... REALLY! Another day that I have to spend aaallll day at home? You gotta be kidding me. And I guess is also uncertain if next week there will be another strike or not... ooohhh London.

Other than that, there has been a lot of ups and downs in my life, family members passing away others going to the hospital, so far 2014 kindaaaa kinda sucks, yeah it sucks.

Shakira - Can't remember to forget you feat. Rihanna - New Single - This song should have been part of my last Musical Friday. As simple as the lyrics are, I also can identify myself with them -_-  aahhh life.

Musical Friday #132

EN: First Musical Friday of the year. I've been thinking during this week if I should continue with this weekly post, if any of you actually enjoy it or not. Let me know what you think.

In the mean time, I can identify myself a little bit which each song below. You know when you have those times that the lyrics of all songs start to make sense and you can identify yourself with them because you are going/went through that situation at some point in your life? Yep that's me right now...

Have a good weekend.

Britney Spears - Perfume - New - The lyrics of this song... ppffff I can't even.... (but in a good way). It's like she took a look at my life and made a song out of it haha.

Musical Friday #131

EN: So Christmas is around the corner and I found out today that I don't have to work on the 24,25 and 26 woot woot. This year I will spend my Christmas holidays here in London with some family members of mine but away from my Mom and Dad.

As I get older, I become less and less fond of Christmas due to various reasons.

Eminem - The Monster feat. Rihanna - New

Musical Friday #130

EN: I've been wanting to do some tattoos for quite a long time now but in the beginning I wasn't sure what I wanted and then since I was young there was no way in hell my mother would let me and then of course money issue because tattoos as we know are not cheap and the better the tattoo artist is, obviously the more expensive is going to be. At my current job some of my colleagues have quite big and visible tattoos so it kinda triggered my interest again.
Do you know any good and decent tattoo shops/artist in London?

Backstreet Boys - Show 'Em (What You're Made Of) - New Single - I don't know about you but I've been a fan of BSB since FOREEEEEVVEEERRRRR! And now I just found out that theyare going to be in London next year, I AM THERE! This is probably the last time that I will ever be able to see them, so I have to find a way to go, even if I go alone!

Musical Friday #129

EN: This week I wasn't able to post anything on my Blog, hopefully next week will be different plus I will able to upload a new video on Youtube.

So we have started a new month, many people are looking forward for Christmas, I'm not. Not because I'm not able to go home for Christmas and be with my parents but in general Christmas doesn't mean much for me. Over the last years it has more of a sad connections then happy.

Oh yeah, last Saturday the actor Paul Walker (known very well because of the Fast and Furious movies) died in a car accident (ironic right?) and then last night Nelson Mandela dies uuffffff.

At my new job I'm starting to have more shifts, which is good because it means more money the only bad thing is I get home kind late and I have no energy to still come to the computer and do a proper post. The places that I'm a bit more easily active is on my Tumblr and Pinterest, so please check those places out ;).

I can't wait to get my first paycheck, I'm already doing a list of things that I need to buy, one of them a new coat, a Parka. I will talk about that probably on my next blog post.

Now I'm off to bed because I have to work this weekend. Byyyeeeee!

Musical Friday #128

EN: Remember about 3 weeks ago I did a post about the fact that we didn't have the lights working in the bathroom? So soon after that the lights went crazy again -_- so for another 3 weeks we had to take a shower with candle lights. But at least this time around the guys came to fix it "pretty fast" compared to the first time around. 

Now I'm going to sleep, I have to work this weekend and this Saturday I work all day. God I'm going to be so tired going up and down the stairs. x

Ben Pearce - What I Might Do

Musical Friday #127

EN: Another week has passed but now I'm finally working. But it's not your typical office, Monday to Friday, 9AM till 5PM type of job. I'm working in a Restaurant so that means crazy shifts and no more proper weekends because those are days that I'll be defiantly working. I've been through this before, back in 2011 I worked in a call-center while I lived in Prague but the differences was that I did a 8/9 hours shift and now most of the times I only work 3 hours per day but I'm not the only one.

Anyways this is just temporary, like my mother would say, I didn't go to University, studied abroad, worked abroad to end up working in restaurant! I have big dreams, I always had big dreams but for now is like Drake's song "started from the bottom now we're here", I had to start somewhere and they are paying, so don't let me words make you think that I'm complaining. I'm very grateful for this job opportunity because in fact, they were the only place that called me for an interview and end up hiring me

Musical Friday #126

EN: Tomorrow I will finally start working! I'm both excited and nervous, that's understandable right?

My fear right now is of oversleeping, I'm always like that, when I have a big thing the next day I'm always afraid that I either won't listen to the alarm clock, or  I hear it, stop it and go back to sleep. Does this also happens to you?

Well I'm off to bed, it's gonna be a loooong day. Wish me luck!

EN: Hey guys, how's your month of November going so far? I think that finally some good winds are blowing my way. Fingers crossed!

Other than day today has been a rainy day but then again I wouldn't expect anything different because... it's London.

Musical Friday #122

EN: Another week as passed and I'm still waiting for any jobs replies.... *sigh*.

Who knew that even to work at a store it was such a hassle. Plus I was sick this week, I guess I caught whatever my little cousin had, oh boy!

Musical Friday #121

EN: Since I arrived to London, I think that today was the first day that rained all day long. Ah good old typical British weather.

Other than that not much has happened, I still don't have a job, I'm still waiting for replies from the places.

Wish me luck guys :)!

Musical Friday #120

EN: I spent the week in pain because of my wisdom tooth. Like the little unlucky situation weren't enough during the weekend my gum around my wisdom started to swell and then it got to a point that I couldn't swallow my food properly :S.

So since the last thing I wanted to do was go to a Dentist, not because I'm afraid but because I didn't want to spend money, I don't have a job yet and I have to save the money that I have. In the days that followed I took Paracetamol and gargled some warm water with salt and it actually helped. 

Right now I'm a lot better, I can eat, talk, swallow normally, I just have a little "numbness" right at the back. I guess the wisdom tooth decided to grow a bit so it kind move the teeth in from of him just a little bit. 

But as soon as I get a job I'm going to the Dentist and I've heard that they are not cheap over here (are they ever?).

Musical Friday #119

EN: Salutations from Great Britain!

Oh guys what a journey! I've been here for a week now, and in case you didn't know I don't have a laptop so I have to use my cousin's one.

Let me take you back to last Wednesday (18th of Sept.). I woke up early in the morning and went to the hairdresser to cut my hair. At the beginning I thought that the man did a fairly good job but now I'm seeing waayyy to many layers for my taste -__-. After that I spent the rest of the day at home packing the rest of my little stuff till 2:00AM uuuffffff.

On the 19th, the day of my journey I woke up at 7:30AM, got ready and left my house at around 9:30AM and I still had to buy some bag lockers because I couldn't find any of the 3 that I have -_-. So I bought that and a bag-belt. Once we were at the airport and I did my check-in and after a bit I went to the waiting room. So we had to take a bus to get to our plane and once we were in the bus we went to our plane, stayed there 30 seconds and then went back to where we were... WTF? Then the Lady said that the airplane didn't have any cabin crew. After 3 minutes we went back to the airplane and that's when I noticed.... there were like four to five babies in the plane... UUUWWWHHAATTT????? And 3 of them were close to me.... Lord have mercy.....

After like 3 hours flying we had to stay in the air for half an hour and my ears couldn't deal with it anymore.

So after we landed, I picked up my bag aaaaaand guess what? It was damaged, it was ripped on the side. Luckily since I worked for a airline in the past I knew exactly what to do. So I went to the counter and filled a paper and they gave me a new bag straight away, I was quite surprised. My bag was from Vaag, light blue, medium size, I bought it in 2010 but I never used it, this was the bag's first journey ever :S. They gave me a bigger bag in black, so I went to a corner to transfer all my stuff to the new bag and I had to leave my blue bag behind since I was going home by train and not by car.

After I left the bag area, the first thing I did was to go to Costa Coffee - ooohhh I've missed you so much - got a Cappucino and then went to the Underground. At one point in my journey I had to chain trains and as I getting out of the train my small pink trolley handle (the one that goes up and down) BROKE! OMG are the Gods of the Bags against me today? But I did manage to get home, bless the two gentleman that helped me carry my new massive black bag up the stairs.

On Friday I spent most of my day unpacking and at night a friend of mine invited me and my cousin to go watch the show STOMP. It was sooooo good! Unfortunately we were aloud to take photos.

On the next day I went to visit another cousin of mine and stupid little Karen forgot to "bip" her Oyster card (travel card) on the machine and of course that day the train was full of security guys and I got a £40 fine, FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!

Oh well, other than that, I've been at home, starting to apply for jobs and etc... so I will leave you with some music now.

Musical Sunday #118

EN: Hello Bananas!

Uufff these last 3 days were pretty full for me! Starting off with Friday I had dinner with some of my friends - oh I should remind you guys this was on a Friday 13th - we were suppose to go to a Chinese restaurant but it was closed for construction so we went to a Japanese restaurant - okei no problem - when we arrive there we sat down for a bit and then got up to get our food - because it was a buffet - when I was walking back to my seat I noticed that my left foot was felling a bit loose, I was wearing about 10cm high heels sandals and when I looked down the strap over my toes it came off o_O O.M.F. ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!?! LUCKILY I'm a bit of a MacGyver/Mary Poppins type of the girl and that night I had my camera with me. And since my camera is kinda of broken I have to use tape and elastic around the battery area, I took those things off and used it on my sandals, of course there weren't good as new but I managed to survive.

On Saturday I went to the beach with another friend of mine. The weather was looking pretty dodgy in the morning and also we missed the 11:00AM boat so we had to wait for the next one at 12:00PM but things got better when the sky cleared up and the sky was all nice and blue. We went to the a beach called Tróia. I've been going there since I was a child but lately it has become a bit of an expensive beach to go to because of the boat ride. It's a great beach, specially now that they cleaned it up, have new hotels etc... but for some reason yesterday it was full of jellyfishes, I haven't seen jellyfishes on that beach for ages now, so I had to be very careful. Anyways it was great to catch some last rays of sun and get a bit more tanned. The picture/GIF above expresses my sadness because I can't go to the beach now for a big fat while.

Today I went with some friends to visit some other friends of ours and their baby daughter, we spent the evening catching up and eating butt loads and watching  a movie :P.
These last 3 days were filled with goodbyes and "see you laters".
Four more days till D day.
