Maximalism

Let me start by saying … I have way too much stuff! Seriously. I made some very tough decisions about what I’ll be taking back to Belgium in my trolley and what will be left behind for Ricky to take when he drives up to Belgium. Then I put the rest of the stuff in a box. In a gigantic box. The box is full. And that’s just my clothes. There’s a seperate box with three pairs of shoes, and a bag of handbags. I still need to sort through my jewellery and toilettries. I almost had a ‘minimalistic’ moment, thinking I should just purge my closet and declutter. Then, thankfully, I came back to my senses. But I think I might need a bigger closet.

I also picked up some gifts yesterday. I still need three more things, I’m gonna pick those up tomorrow. This evening I’m going to Belgo for the last time with Davina. It’s Matt’s birthday tomorrow so we’re gonna have a bbq. It’s supposed to be good weather, but here, you never know.

I’m not sure what to do about Friday. I do want to have drinks with the people I’ve met here, but I don’t know where, and I don’t know who will show up … Davina and Thao are going clubbing in Camden but I don’t think I’ll go along. I wanna be able to do stuff Saturday morning. I kinda need to decide soon though, time is kinda running out. I’ll ask the girls in the office if they know someplace good.

I have stuff to do so I’d better sign off. And I’m feeling that post lunch slump coming on. Coffee time!
