The fact that my previous post was about the fact that I will not feel angsty about the money I am spending is hilarious given the fact that I am currently panicking a bit about the fact that my bank account is screaming for a refill...
However, my spending skills and I are excused because my sister visited me this weekend. The girlfriend had "planned something" that everyone seemed to be on, but me. She took me to a restaurant and mid-meal my sister shows up and I start crying very unattractively. It was worth it though, because I had missed her like mad and realised just how much as she hugged me. Spending the weekend with her here was great and I loved being able to actually to touristy stuff (like running around with cameras around our necks, trying to get the best angle of a squirrel eating a peanut) without feeling like I had something else to do; I had the weekend properly off. However, with sister comes spending. I think she sometimes forgets that she makes so much more money than me and the fact that she can spend the same amount on a meal that I live off one a week. Without further explanation, her visit probably damaged my wallet more than hers. Not that I don't mind, I do - but I can almost say that it was worth it.
On top of that I also managed to snatch some tickets for Adam Lambert's concert in London in april next year, which I am super-duper excited about.
Oh and with sister comes the goods. Swedish actual candy and knitted jumpers. Bless her.
