Chronically Awkward

Today and yesterday have been extremely fruitful. Being the FLA is finally starting to work! No more private pity parties. Yesterday - lift home from the English teacher. Today - ride home from school secretary. Every day so far this week and last (barring late start Tuesdays) ride to school with host...

Well. Somebody LIEDDDDDDDDD! Ok, I realise,  after making my semi-dramatic announcement that I would be posting about the bleak section of my week...I forgot to do so. But! You know how I love you (all three of you) so I'll add it in here :) Warning, this section will inevitably...

I know she wants to try new things but just no... - For those of you that don't know, Wednesday is Zumba day in my ongoing struggle against the winter chubb - Bless her she wanted to switch it up, and was smiling at us encouragingly as she kept the energy levels pumping. But...

I felt my London-ness shrivel up and die a little this past week, not gonna lie. Who would have thought 5 days outside of my little Buckingham would have been such a roller coaster? Not me dammit. So. What happened you ask? Let me give you 4 words. Waterfall  Training  Lumberjack-shack  Rudolph  (oh...

Ok so, before we get into it, Ima write myself a mini 'to do list' of all the things I have to blog about. This week and last week were just flippin draining so I haven't had any real energy to blog so I'll catch y'all up now ^^ Do I even remember last week Thanksgiving madness Coconuts Shopping...
