I have been working so much at work that it keeps making me ill and now I wanna work less work are being so funny about 😩 all I wanna do is go on holiday!
Big Weekly Update 21-27!!!
Hello! 🙋 I'm back! 😁 So much happened so that I didn't find any time to write here. Wow, the weeks are flashing by so fast, especially the last weeks were finished so fast! Less than two months(5 weeks) are left until I'll go back home! I can't believe how fast the time ran! Like I said last time I'm realising now, how less time is left. Every weekend in July is planed. It's difficult to discribe how I feel. On one hand I'm looking forward to finish my 'year' here and to go back home, but on the other hand I'm still in a 'Wanderlust' mood, I would like to see, do and experience much more in this short time left. I guess it feels like that, because there is again the same feeling of uncertainty, which came up last year after I finished school. I mean I knew I would move for one year to London and had some expectations, but in the end it was all a big surprise, everything showed up totally different! But I'm happy now! I got used to my routine here and feel comfortable and safe. This time the big uncertainty is that I don't know, how the Uni/ Study thing will turn out. I'm sure that I want to study now, because I'm certained about my study subject, but again I don't know how it will turn out and what I have to expect. So that's it what makes me insecure. This year away from home definitely helped me to see certain things from a different view plus I got to know myself better. I feel more self-confident than before and now I have no problems to speak the whole time English(there was never a problem in it, I knew most of the vocabulary all ready, I was just insecure how to use them properly). But now back to what happened when I didn't write anything here(of course more than that, but these are just a few things I want to share with you): 1.) I went to Holland park, which I can really recommend! Compared with other parks in London it is much greener and has a lot of trees. You will feel as if you're not in London! Instead it feels like being in a forest or in the woods! 😀 2.) I applied at a few Unis and had my CAE Cambridge Advanced Exam! Now I have to wait (in both chases) for an response/ result. 3.) The last weeks were nice and sunny, it's getting summer here now! UPDATE: Typical English weather, which means it was sunny yesterday, today it's cold and rainy. And next weekend they say it will be sunny again. 4.) Ginny and I went to Thames Barrier, which is interesting, because it has a small museum, but it wouldn't be in my Top 10 recommendations for London. What I can really recommend is to go for one day to Greenwich. I went there two weeks ago and it was amazing, of course also a lot of tourists, but you will find them everywhere in London! 😄 If it's a nice sunny day like last Saturday go to Black vanilla, a nice gelateria close to the Station. A few weeks ago I went to Richmond and Kingston which are a little bit outside of London(South west, Zone 4 and 6), but definitely a nice choice, because you can have a nice walk close to the river Thamse with more local people instead of loads of tourists. 5.) June and July are two months with an unbelievable amount of birthdays! In July alone are three birthdays in my hostfamily! 6.) I can't believe it, but three weeks ago a friend of my brother came with a few friends to London and I showed them a little bit around. Again I realised how much I got to know this city, but there are still parts of London and England, that I haven't seen, but definitely want to see in the future! ;) 7.) Strawberries and cream 🍓🍦🍰 - of course - there was Wimbledon! Personally I'd never an interest in Tennis before, but after watching it every day on TV and playing it myself with the boys in the garden and on the tennis court I got more interested in it. 8.) Ginny and I went last Saturday to a basketball match. England vs. New Zealand! Of course it's different from a match in the USA, the mood was totally different, but it was exciting! ☺️ So I was really busy, but in all this time when I didn't write here I had different thoughts about my current life here, my future, what I would like to do in the next month, all those kind of things... I'm not sure how I'll continue the blog, I definitely want to continue writing and improve it, but of course I won't write that much about London and au pair anymore than before. I'm prepairing right now a post about tips for London in generell and also a little guide for au pairs! Probably I don't want to write too much about London and being an au pair, because I'll leave soon. The other reason is that I find it quite hard to differentiate between telling you about the things I did here and my 'private' life. Yes, right now I came to a point where I want to write down all my experience I made this year, but I'm not certained about sharing them with the internet. Maybe it's because I read the book 'Girl Online' by Zoe Sugg(aka Zoella) and because of that I thought about anxiety, panic attacks(I'm not sure if I ever had one) and how much the internet knows about us or more precisely how easily information about us (we don't really want to share with the world) can get online. By the way, I bought three books here and finished all of them, if you're interested in some reviews, please let me know! 😉 Okay, I guess that's it for this time. Sorry for writing a lot of times 'I', but it wasn't easy to write about what happened to Me without mentioning 'I' a few times. 😁☺️😉 See you soon and not weeks later!;) All the best, xx Julia
