Dreading the next few days

I have one more day in the UK before I fly home to that boring ass place in Texas. Not only will I have to deal with the headache of being some place I really don't want to be but now I see I will be a whole 6300 miles away from my boyfriend for four months. Arrgghhh this is not good. There is so much I will need to work on this summer and I do mean work too.

Feeling crappy

Today I am feeling a bit blue. Right now I am not so sure about some things and I hope they will seriously turn out for the better. In the mean time I have or will probably loose a good friend because of a decision I have made but I seriously hope they are wrong. I want this thing to go well.

My last few weeks

These are my last few weeks in the UK and boy is it going to be a mad rush up until the end. Well that is what it feels like right now. I have a lot to do this week. Lunch with a friend tomorrow, a memorial for my friends mum on Tuesday, two days in Brighton (whoo hoo)and a hair appointment. Then I have to sort all the stuff that I am leaving behind and pack what I will need for my return trip to Istanbul nextweek and that single bag that I will be taking back to the United States. One bag only Estelle--one bag!

The Michael Jackson service

That was a really nice service. So many people and fans. Watched it on CNN/Facebook. It's how so many people loved this man. He will be terribly missed. MJ contributed a lot of positive to the world in spite of some of the weird goings on and all the shit that hit the press. He has left a great impact on this world.

I can finally buy that silver spoon

I'm excited! I learned today I'm going to be an aunt. For many years I have waited to buy the sterling silver spoon and since it won't be for my own child it will be for the next thing.
I have chosen a very beautiful sterling silver feeding spoon from Tiffany & Co. by Elsa Peretti

The 4th of July in Merry Old England

Most of the day I have been forgetting about it being a holiday back home. Well except for that American themed breakfast Ade and I had this morning.
Now there are fireworks in the quintessential Hampshire. Wow. A spectacular light show.
The Wimbledon Finals have been great. Serena won the match against big sis Venus but of course to me if one wins then so does the other. They even won the women's doubles match! Yes! Tomorrow however I am aiming for a win from Roger Federer.

An afternoon in the countryside

Adrian and I just returned from an afternoon in Petersfield. It's quite an interesting little town. Lots of shops and restaurants in the city centre. It's great to get out and see some of the English countryside from time to time. It's very fresh and green, classic and quaint. Too bad I did not remember to bring my camera. :-(
