a little portion of my London diary


'.......ten minutes later I emerged from the underground to a street of startling beauty.

things to do before you die

ahaha, was clearing out my cupboards this afternoon and found an old jewellery box I used years ago. I opened it up and inside was a piece of folded paper. Out of curiosty I opened it and it turned out to be a list of things I want to do before I die. I remember writing it years ago and it was so funny to find it. I'm going to keep it safe. There are about 100 things on the list. Some of the things on it are cool but some are so random for eg.....

1) own a ring with a sapphire
2) eat curry with my hands like in Pakistan (HA!!)
3) hold a baby monkey
4) Travel to London on a sleeper train
5) Sleep in an igloo

.....ha....what was I thinking?....i was a strange child!
