Piss and Stuff

It is time for a bit more excitingness after the boringness of the last days! So, here's whot I did:

Saturday sad-me met sad-eva for an evening of feeling lost and lonely. We had pintses here and there and we also had amazing burgers at The Gate at Newington Green. When we got extra-sad we went up to Eva's flat and watched three episodes of United States of Tara - which is quite funny, actually, but a tragic way to spend a Saturday night in London. So just when we were about to fall asleep at 10pm we decided to go to Unskinny Bop, despite the lack of friends and meet new ones. Little late, tho, cause Unskinny Bop is a very, very popular night with the gays and we didn't fit into The Star anymore. Awww. Went to The Sun instead, which is a normal, boring old men pub just down the street from The Star. There I got IDed for the first time since that friend of Ros' thought I was 40 years old and also I got in a fight with a femme lesbian in the toilet.
We ended up going home quite late and then I slept for amazing 10 hours!

In other big news: I talked to my mum on Friday. She was very relaxed and didn't seem to care much, when I mentioned quitting college and emigrating to London FOREVER. She said it is all my choice and as long as I have a decent job when I am 33 she can't really complain, because all she did before that age was sorting apples at a conveyor belt and babysitting that kid Patrick, who I had to find for her on facebook a while ago (he now lives in Australia with his wife and two kids). What she doesn't know yet is that she actually won't see me for at least 4 months.
Today I also called my shop in Konstanz and quit my job there. My boss said "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO", cause I was good at what I was doing, innit. She also said I ruined her Christmas and that she is happy for me. I almost cried a little, cause she was a good boss. And because I won't get 30% discount on plastic flowers and penis candy anymore.

Sunday night was the first one I spent in my new flat! I will describe my new home in a later post when I have actually moved in, cause at the moment I haven't even seen my future room, cause I slept on a mattress in Lisa's room.
Lisa is still shy and quiet and very nice, but she surprised me with dragging me all the way to Brick lane for bagels and beer on Sunday evening. Despite having worked 12 hours during the day and having to work the same again on Monday (with me as her shadow!). There was a Brick Lane Music Festival happening, but because we got there so late, we missed all the live music. Brick Lane is full of young people (=my age and younger), which is a kind of Londoner I haven't met so much before. They were all wearing weirdly patterned tights that got you high just by looking at them and most of them had hair like Amy Winehouse. I felt very old and boring.

I only spent one night in my new flat, tho, cause V. is incredibly chaotic and so unorganised that it hurts my German heart.
Yesterday I could stay at Ros' place, she made me some yummy thing for tea, dunno what it's called, but it came with mashed potatoes!
And tonight I am staying at Eva's, who is an amazing friend and my personal tiny Chinese guardian angel here in London. I met her at Farringdon earlier today to get the keys for her flat, which is ACE because it is right above a gay bar at Newington Green!

Most exciting thing that happened, tho: I saw my first drunken man pissing in the streets! And no old sweeping ladies, yet - Dream come true...
