Oh London! HI CHARLOTTE I LOVE YOU.

All those little hipster f'ers make London look like so much fun (I'm talking to you Peaches, Pears, Plums, Pixies, Daisies, Lily's, etc). I think its kind of odd! Its so big and takes forever to get around when I have castings. I really miss NYC because its getting warm and Spring/Summer in NY is my favorite.

I've been really busy with appointments and whatnot. I went to Brighton for a shoot on Thursday for Glamour. It was so beautiful there! I had never seen such a rocky beach. The scene there was rather young and looked like more fun than London. =p

Today being my first day off I went walking around East London (Where I'm living...) and EVERY SINGLE VINTAGE SHOP I WENT INTO WAS PLAYING MORRISSEY. I probably spelled that wrong, but I can't say that I mind. Morrissey makes me want to punch myself in the face. Ughr.

Then like a doofus I went to Oxford circus because I ripped a hole in my only pair of black tights I brougt with me, and I can't even begin to try to describe the amount of people that were there. Never again on a Saturday, never again.

I'm leaving for Sweden tomorrow for a job, be back Tuesday! British TV is fun, though. Yay for speaking the language!

Its always difficult the first few days that I travel to a new City, I know I'll learn to like it here once I know it better. But right now, I'm just overwhelmed by loneliness and not knowing anything about this city. I try to remind myself that I am here to work, not to socialize and get shitfaced and party and have a great smashing time. As long as I'm busy I'll be happy.

I need to get photos developed.

it's intresting that you find london little overwhalming and big next to NYC. I always thought that NYC is more hard to live ( but i wish i could live in that city anyway - but hey I am from Poland and many say that eastern and centre europe's people are deppressed all the times and nostalgic ) and about lonelinnes - if you ever will be in Poland , Cracov for work or anything and want somebody to take care of you and your friend let me know :)

Morrissey is for wimps.

I agree with the first comment above. Ive lived in both places and have always found London to be slightly easier to live in compared to NYC.. but then again, different people = different tastest.

I totally get the whole adjusting to a new city then.. only I never learned how to do it.

Hey,
