London is UBER




Last night I went to the BFI with my cousin and a dear friend of mine to see the One.Zero exhibition with live VJs playing music along with the animations. These are the kind of events that make London so unique and creative. There was a real buzz about the night and it was crawling with all sorts of creative types or as I affectionately call them.... Ubers!

The highlight of the night was watching the performance of Zan Lyons. He was an incredible DJ who also played the electric violin whilst DJing and controlling the imagery projected behind him. It was very impressive and the impact of the sound and bass was heart stopping.

My cousins best friend, (who recently returned from LA completing her placement year at UCLA,) asked me last night how my 'grind' was. Confused, she explained that I better be ready for how everyone in California 'grinds' when they dance. If you don't grind you will be 'grinded on'. As if.... no grinding - that is not my style. (I might be a little scared)

My last Saturday night out in London was great fun and a bold reminder of how much I will miss the creative culture of London.

Today I am feeling tired as all the goodbyes, dinners, drinks, cleaning, and packing are taking their toll. I have a feeling when I arrive in the U.S. I am going to crash and burn. It has to catch up with me at some point.

I just finished deep cleaning my kitchen. I would like to take this opportunity to say how amazing Mr. Muscle oven cleaner is. I might have poisoned myself with the fumes, but 25 minutes later all the grease and shit caked in my oven came right off! I dare think whats in those products to make cleaning so easy.

Off now for dinner with my close University friends in Soho... it never stops! But I am looking forward to seeing them all in one place for a dirty meal of American Food in honor of my final destination.

Music I am currently listening to: The Radio via iTunes - KCRW Eclectic 24 (great station)
