'ere we go...

Oh God, I don't know what came over me.

I did it!

I just bought a ticket to Hong Kong!

Well, what did I do today? I went and took my library book back, then couldn't decide. I'd already looked into the cinema, but it's too expensive, seven pounds in a normal one but there's nothing on at Prince Charles. So I bussed to Swiss Cottage and had a coffee in Whetherspoon. I looked at the menu at the Australian pub for a birthday meal treat (which I'd already decided to do (it's actually my friend's birthday but I celebrate it as though it's mine)) but that was really expensive too. So I had a slimfast bar, then some chips. Then I went down and made my first investment, a Europe fund, I ordered 500 pounds of mutual fund (M&G) my first stock market investment. Funny as I remember this day last year, making my first gold investment.

It's not really impulsive (buying the ticket), I've been copying guidebooks and looking at calenders for ages now. So, I decided March 21st and BOOKED IT. I leave about eight at night, so I'll have to leave London early, maybe twoish or something. My heads spinning, all over the place. I'll have to come to London in a week or so, to get some things done, plus I need plus a visa. A few more things to find out. Pack stuff. Buy last things. I'd better get on and buy the bus tickets then. Oh God, can you believe it?

But last night I lie there and it kind of sunk in that I'm spending my own finite money from herein. There's no way I'll waste it in England; what's going to happen here? Anyway, I'll talk another time. I'd better start doing stuff.
