Officiality in Athens

Today was my first "official" day in my favorite city. I woke up at 11:30, ate a small breakfast - little did i know that would be the only thing i would eat until 18:00 - and unpacked my huge suitcase. This is what the contents of my suitcase look like in my provisional bedroom (note: we're renovating our floor -Floor 1- so are currently residing on Floor 3 aargh...more steps. note 2: the cat visible on one of the chairs was not in my suitcase. Neither was the stationary bicycle.)



Then i helped my daddy do some grocery shopping, where i received very strange looks because of my hair. One sleazy bag-boy even whistled at me. I assume the shaved head look hasn't come to Athens yet ;)


I went straight from dropping off the shopping at home to walking the distance in the warm weather to meet my mother where she was getting pampered at Chrissa Beauty Salon. I ended up staying longer than expected - instead of 30 minutes to get my eyebrows done, i stayed for 3 hours and did my hair as well ^^ (more is shaved now yippee)


My plans for tonight were to go out with Jo and the twins, BUT they were cancelled because of different reasons, so NOW (drumroll) i'm going to see Avatar with my parents :)

Golly Gee, i just love those moments when you can't be bothered to organize anything with people your own age, so you just use family as easy substitutes...


I'm very excited, i.must.admit. I'm off to get ready for the movies...

I'll pop in sometime soon again. (I managed to steal my neighbors' wireless ^^ GO ME!)




in case you didn't know, Marina's half greek ^^ Tuff Pride.

  1. I love the chaos of just getting to the house abroad and wanting to meet up with friends but being slightly lazy about it.

    As for the wireless stealing- thats my girl and I think we all do it on holidays, somehow its just impossible to seperate yourself from your home home and facebook is really addictive.

    Good night kitty cat xx
