I hate blogging!

  • So, I made this after reading Tara's inspirational blog. http://unpetitpeu-deparis.blogspot.com/
  • Been in london since the 29th, slept through new years!! How exciting. The next morning I made a new years resolution to have the best january ever (to make up for my lame new years).
  • I have taken androids advice to heart.
  • Only been sober about 3-4 nights this month.
  • I don't get hangovers anymore!! Or maybe I do, but I just don't notice them :).
  • Vodka, is like, so good.
  • Clink Bar is fucking so much fun, too bad the prices went up a bit... but i certainly got my moneys worth!#
  • The Clink, well, this definitely made this trip worthwhile!! I have had so much fun here and I don't want to leave.
  • When I got to the clink on the 1st, i originally planned to only stay a few days to a week. That quickly changed though. I met many of the "regulars", the longtermers, the family, here at the clink. And I simply couldn't leave them!! They are really cool, fun and laid back guys and girls.
  • Plus, hostels in paris seem shit.
  • I don't want to be kicked out at 11am and let back in at 4pm.
  • Paris est tros cher aussi.
  • and there have been and continue to be so many french people here it's like a mini-france sometimes.
  • that being said my french has been put to good use, after a year of inactivity.
  • The first few weeks i really tried to speak good french, and i had great feedback.
  • I love it when i can convince somebody i am french with only a few words!
  • But ugh lately, i have been too lazy to try my best to speak french, so my accent is um...
  • well my accent isn't entirely australian apparently, a few girls at the bar told me last night.
  • and well when im lazy my accent isn't entirely francais quand je parle so i have no idea what it is. it must be original then.
  • I hope i find the motivation to speak parfait francais when i get to uni in lyon.... otherwise... hmm i dont wanna think about that!
  • Hmm im heaps excited about uni in lyon... so many people have told me that lyon is a great place full of friendly people! And the uni sounds like a pretty cool place as well, there's 3000 french students and 1300 international students, so yeaaa partying will be so much fun!!
  • My aspirations for study aren't too high... i just NEED to pass, that's it! Though I am hoping I can do better than that.
  • Fingers crossed i find a friend who can help me with french studies.
  • Anyways enough about France, lets come back to england.
  • Since I have been here I have been to a few clubs.
  • Florian, matthieux and I went to Fabric a few weeks ago but it was closed so instead we went to "The End".
  • It was fucking intense.
  • We waited out in the sub-zero temperatures for an hour, in the fucking line!
  • Then when we got in it was packed like a tin of sardines.
  • the music was not really to my liking
  • it's the sort of music that's only good if you are fucked out of your mind on drugs.
  • and most people were!
  • I left early and got a cab back... i think... can't really remember!
  • The next time I went out was to a place called Madame JoJo's in Soho.
  • JoJo's is usually a gay-bar but on a wednesday it's full of straight people, because wednesday is it's biggest night, oddly enough.
  • It was so shit.
  • Firstly, everybody had a fucking fringe like me. WHAT THE FUCK. haha... nah but seriously, everbody was a metro fuckhead, dressed in super tight pants with little vests on and jackets. Ugh. Worse than me.
  • Secondly, nobody could fucking dance. They just stood there bopping to the music.
  • Thirdly, the music was fucking abominable. The dj's could not splice the beats smoothly between songs which pissed me off - If i pay to get into a place i want the place to be fucking good, and the Dj's AT LEAST have to know how to DJ!!!
  • Ugh. Well. I didn't pay to get in, a spanish guy called Chris (i think..) paid for me. He's a champ. Studying medicine, hope it all goes well!
  • Fourthly, (back to ranting) if the people in the club weren't doing their shitty dance they were just standing/sitting around talking.... ughhhhhhhhhh who comes to a club to fucking talk?!
  • Fifthly (?) the venue was so shit. Period.
  • The next place I went to is called KoKo's. Now. This place is so fucking cool!!
  • It's a renovated opera theatre and holy shit it's amazing. Simply breathtaking. When you walk in you walk straight up to an elevated area over-looking the stage. I was blown away.
  • This place goes off with live music, the atmosphere is electric.
  • However, Dj's don't really work well here, nobody can dance which really sucks. The dance floor is big, however it's always full and squashed and smells like shit from the 4000 moshers who moshed there for the previours four hours.
  • That being said however, the place is still really great, with one big bar on the ground floor, and many little bars spread out over the different levels.
  • There are some really sweet places to sit, away from the music and the revellers, if you want a nice place to chill with friends and some drinks in a nice venue.
  • The last place I have been to is called Barflys, it's just a small indie bar located in Camden.
  • Went there with some spanish girls, french guys and some spanish guys.
  • I had a lot of fun there, mucking around with this guy who was fucked off his vagina on MDMA.
  • He liked my fringe? Yay.
  • Once again i felt like i fitted in at this place too much!! Everybody was indie, had a fringe and wore tight pants. hahaha I hate that!!
  • But yeh had a good night and some good chats with the spanish girls and some french guy....
  • went and got a bacon burger and chips and started a conversation with this total stranger, a young english guy, had a pretty fucking funny conversation about the steak burgers and shit at this random food joint in camden. That was fun.
  • then the spanish girl, blanca, divorced me, married the kebab seller, divorced him and then married her french lover. Typical.
  • 2 minutes left on the internet for this session, it's 2:10 in the afternoon and I need to go get my lunch and dinner, it's australia day WEEKEND!!!! GET PUMPED!

"i'm so paid"
