lazy august
last week i put some new songs on my mp3 player, for my travels, to find that in the morning when i left, it was totally buggered, would not turn on, would not even connect to a computer, so bricked samsung yp-p2, great, and no music to travel with!
the biggest news is that it was ben’s birthday last weekend, and i went there as a surprise, having told nobody at all (who would be at his party) that i would be there.
it was great, everybody was super shocked, and i had a great time
i’ve been to see nam’s new flat near baron’s court which is very nice.
ben harry and I did some shopping, so i have a good cheap mp3 player for using on the beach or wherever, as it has some good built in speakers, samsung s5. also got a pocket camera, canon g9, which is great because i was so sick of lugging my rucksack on my back with my slr, as it’s way too hot here for that.
got some new spectacles, being that mine got lost earlier in the year, i must remember, do not take them off!!!!!!
i collected the phone i ordered from the dhl depot near hangerlane. it’s what i had hoped for, i just hope i can get orangeES to work, so i can use the 3g. i think it was a good decision to choose over the htc touch diamond.
i also went trough the storage that a lot of family stuff is in, and chucked out a volvo FULL (insert pic of me) to teh skip.
it was nice to be in a cool climate, and get some decent sleep. better than the roasting humidity here.
i’ve uploaded more photos to flickr, so check it!
so i have been browsing for a car, but i think i wont find one. i’m being picky, and so can’t afford one, plus i shuldn’t spend money on a car, i think.

today has involved many explosions, some pleasant,a nd some not.
at lunch time i hurt myself a lot! i made soup and the bowl i poured it into exploded, couldn’t handle the tastey mushroomy godness soup! or the heat.my heeart is racing, argh! got cuts on my feet and burned thumbs and shins. eeeeeeeeep owch!
so as a result i didn’t feel much like going out. there isn’t much to do on sunday, just lazing on the beach.
so i’ve started watching batman. i’ve been beaten up by marta’s rabbit. and i let it out of teh cage twice, evil evil girl! i’ve uploaded some more photos:




damn alignment!!!!!
and lastly i watched the fireworks. so ow the Mataro party is almost over for the year.

so i got back from denmark friday.
i loved it,
5 weeks living in a tent,
4 weeks picking strawberries,
hanging with many breton people,
accordion playing,
parties,
rain and cold,
sun and hot and tan,
danish people,
danske,
ice creams,
much food,
cakes,
most beautiful beaches,
swimming in cold sea,
bicycle riding,
working hard,
practicing french.
i really liked denmark and may spend some more time there in the future.
i’ve put on weight, at least one ice cream every day in denmark, means maybe 50 ice creams! and in copenhagen 2 cakes a day for a week. i need to exercise!!!!!!!
for now, i have uploaded more pics to my flickr, go see! they are from ages ago now, but little by little i will catch up!
i’ve completed my verbier winter, and started my road trip. most of my photos in verbier were for my 365 day project, meh.
so tomorrow i start to job hunt, as i have no money.
ideas:
help martin finish building his boat before winter.
pick grapes in france. (mis september to end of october)
but before i can do anything i must work a while here as i’m uber broke.
before winter i must return to london to get my snowboard gear.
also i promised to take nic to climb a mountain somewhere in europe. for this i am looking for other who wish to join.
i’d quite like to see some people in brittany also.
finally i will most likely return to switzerland for the winter, for money reasons mainly as pay is so much better there.
i miss people in london and want to see them!
on a side note, i have managed to get my computer connected to a network here at marta’s, and i love my computer lots, the web and computers are finally advancing to a reasonable point for using the internet.
i’d like a small computer or device with wifi for using on the move. i have no money but can dream. ideas are:
htc diamond, phone like iphone but with more features.
ipone 3g.
asus eee pc, mini pc no bigger than a primary school note book (A5).
cowon q5w, media player.
all of these are similarly priced £200-£300. all could fit into my bag.
also i learned that i need a portable hard disk, as travelling and taking photos causes problems when memory cards are full. another thing i must save for!
tak.
