Ice Ice Baby

Good Morning ladies and gentleman. It is official, I am an intern. I have worked three days and been to the post office twice and the bank once. Yesterday my big task was to run around London by bus, by tube, and by foot, to retrieve a Blackberry Curve skin for Gill's wife, Emanuela. The task had to be completed in an hour. I was actually running around to get that stupid cover. Which, I never got because I ran out of stores and time. I went into 5 different cell phone stores and they either didn't carry it or they were sold out of that model. Great. I would also like to add that I was wearing heels throughout this endeavour, which makes it all the more entertaining.

Moving on. Tonight my University is sponsoring a Casino Royale night which myself and a few of my esteemed collegues will be attending dressed as beautiful 'Bond girls' haha The event will take place on some sort of watercraft on the Thames river. Another term of endearment for activities such as this would be a 'booze cruise'; but you usually don't have esteemed collegues dressed as beautiful Bond girls on booze cruises, so it really just depends on your mood I suppose.

As if I'm not cold enough every day at work, it would only make sense that we plan to go to the Absolut Ice Bar on Saturday. Where everything is made out of ice. Blurb from the website: "Made of crystal clear ice, ABSOLUT ICEBAR is literally the UK's coolest bar. Enjoy 40 minutes in the exhilarating -5 degrees environment. Entry tickets include a cape, gloves and a personal ice glass plus your first ABSOLUT vodka cocktail"
Sounds fascinating hu? I'm sure the pictures will be amazing.

Today I have to go to my stupid school to drop off some stupid paperwork. So all for now darlings. Scott and Jill behave in the Caymans, I don't want to get a call from the police saying you are raging too hard! Love love
