If this is a dream, won't open my eyes.

Am I asleep? No, I'm alive
I just can't believe that this is my life



So... Here it is: my Sunday blogpost. On Facebook I asked if there were any au-pairs who wanted to meet up with me in the weekend. A couple of girls replied and one of them was Marcia. She said that every weekend her and her friends go to the city and that I would be welcome to join them: so I did! 

The girls (Marcia, Denisa and Laura)  wanted to go to Columbia road flower market and brick lane. For me both of these are in walking distance so that was quite easy, haha. First we went to the flower market, and as the name says it's a market with flowers. It was nice to see since they have loads and loads of flowers but I didn't buy anything since I am not sure if my hostparents have a vase to put them in (hashtag au-pair life). After that we went to brick lane and Viky joined us there. 

They have loads of food in a big hall, but unfortunately I didn't take any pictures: next time I will definitely take my camera. 
We all got something to eat and then we went to another part of brick lane and there was an event going on. One of the people from the event stopped us and told us about the "girl effect" event. Basically this was a big event to help raise awareness for girls in poverty. 
We went in to one of the rooms of the event and we saw that you could win tickets for a Jessie J gig by tweeting a picture. So basically everyone with twitter posted the picture and after that we went to a park to sit down. The park was the weirdest park I ever went to and it got really, really weird. After a while we decided to leave the park and we walked to McDonald's. Viky connected to the WiFi and...
SHE WON TICKETS TO SEE JESSIE J!
Unfortunately she could only take one person with her. She chose to take me with her! We rushed to my house (and took a cab, it started raining) and changed our outfits. After we got changed we rushed to the venue where I called my parents. My parents were a bit confused that I was suddenly going to a concert, haha. 
The concert was really good! It was held in a really small venue (village underground in Shoreditch). There were 3 artists in total.
After the concert I went home. I was incredibly tired. 
And.... On Monday I had the day off and some au-pairs wanted to go to Chiswick. I didn't really know if I wanted to go because I was so tired from the weekend but I decided to go. When I got to the station one of my friends texted me that I had to go to Gail's bakery because my favourite youtuber was there. I had a hard time finding the bakery but when I found it I saw that not only Louis was there but also Jack and Will. If you watch youtubers you will know that this was the best day. Ever. 
After that we  went to nando's and I saw this guy with a really familiar face but I was too busy FANGIRLING over the youtubers to recognise CONOR MAYNARD. Who was basically eating 2 meters away from us. After he had finished his peri-peri chicken we took a picture with him.

So yeah. I just can't believe that is my life was basically my song for the week. Month. Year. Whatever. 

Sorry for the huge delays in the blogposts but I am just really getting used to living here and have been spending my time making friend and of course working.
