I got up the next morning and ran to the bathroom before anyone could see me. Luckily it was quiet and there wasn't anyone around. I took my make up and made sure I looked imaculate on my exit! You know, the shampoo advert look: perfect make-up, wet but neat hair and a towel. A much better way to bump into someone... I didn't though, everyone was already out at work. I started at 10, which was unusually late compared to the UK, but it seems that nothing happens here until at least 10. I went off to work as usual on Chapel Street.
Later in the day after lunch I was almost falling asleep I was so tired, so I popped out to get me and Barb a coffee form the shop next door.. Chappellis. As I walked in I looked up at the counter and saw Johnny Depp looking back at me. Jesus, Joseph and Mary. Now you would think I would ask to have my photo taken with him or get his autograph wouldn't you? And I did I do that? Of course not... I went weak at the knees and said "you don't look the same without your eyeliner on, I think I fancy you more with it, Don't worry, I still would"... He smiled, I apologised and went red and then just got embarrassed. Man I needed to learn to be cooler.
I got home and told my new housemates about what had happened, they laughed! I had by this point learnt their names but hadn't got to know them. I noticed them in different orders: Firstly Towel Guy, Or Mickey. He had a lovely jaw. Then Adam, he was tall, could play the guitar and was incredulously good looking. Male model like. My friends from home saw a picture of him and they all thought he was handsome. Then there was Jim, he wore glasses and was really funny. And finally a tall dude call Tim.
It was several days until I properly got to know them and before I met the famous Ruby, the lesbian that lived at Clarence Street. I was nervous about meeting her, the boys always spoke so highly of her, I was petrified that she would hate me...
Until We Meet Again... xx
