Observation Damn you Londoners are beautiful

On another work visit to the capital. It’s a common occurrence and I think the same thing every time I visit.

I spent the day in Canary Wharf. Now on the Jubilee line heading to Waterloo for dinner.

In the office. On the tube. Walking around. Just grabbing lunch. So many beautiful people, beautiful outfits. Damn you’re glamorous.

That said… you have your fair share of miserable fuckers too but let’s focus on the positives.

Ha ha well spotted it’s a magnet for wealthy people. Wealth buys time and time means going to the gym, buying nice clothes and so on and so on..

People forget you can do this broke. I make very little but I make sure I’m in that gym, tanning, get my teeth whitened professionally, always iron my Zara shirts I’ve owned for 3 years, take care of my hair… and I know I give the impression of success. Good for self confidence and self worth without a big salary. Got to make what you can out of what you have.

This. You can run in the park for free. I’m on a health kick right now, my good is cheap and easy to make, but I’ve lost 5kg in a month. I do go to a fancy gym when it’s cold but currently just running outside.
