Skiing in the Alps was everything I dreamed it to be!! It was just fantastic - the scenery up there is just amazing. I helped Kathryn improve her skiing skills and then left her to bounce all over the peaks of Meribel and Courchevel and have discovered a new love of red runs - something missing from Whistler. Photos of the trip are up on Flickr.
This past week was my last week working for WilmerHale, and they got every last second out of me! I was very busy, but doing interesting stuff so I didn't mind. It was also a pretty social week for me...
Monday night I went to see Legally Blonde, the musical, and I really enjoyed it! I'd recommend seeing it if you have the chance, but only if you've seen all sorts of other ones first.
Tuesday was my University of London LLB Graduation Ceremony at the Barbican in London. I finally got to cross a stage in a cap and gown, (blue hood this time) for that final nail in the 'getting a law degree' coffin. Family back in Canada watched via a live video feed, and one of my good friends/ coworker came to watch in person. She later took me out to another musical, a short run one at the Donmar Warehouse in the Seven Dials part of London. Strange musical about a spelling bee, but fun!
On Thursday I went to the Harp, one of the best pubs in London (apparently) to catch up with my 'god-brother'... (mum's god-son). I was the only female there, so turns out I was part of a 'boys night' in London LOL!!!! all in good fun.
Friday was my last day at work which was a bitter sweet occasion. I'm actually rather excited about coming home, but I've also really enjoyed my time at WilmerHale. Who knows if I'll be back - we'll see. When work was over I had my 'leaving drinks' - anyone from the firm who wanted to join was welcome, plus I'd invited my other London friends. Started out at Bar Battu in the City, ended the night at a nightclub called Abacus. Fun seemed to be had by all... wooo!!
Today I am packing up my flat in Clapham South, and will be re-locating to my friend Kathryn's flat up in Paddington area. I've got the weekend in London, and then I"m off to Devon to visit family who live near Plymouth for most of the week. Then I'll have another few days in London before the next BIG adventure...... which I'll elaborate on at another time... hehehehe!!!!
