Brits and their weather patterns

Like most Brits I have developed an obsession with weather patterns and today was an amazing day for all of us. Not only was it sunny but there wasn't even a cloud in the sky. Yes you heard right. No clouds, no wind, no gloom, it was pure unadulterated sunshine.
It feels as if things have finally fallen into place over here. I use British lingo as much as possible, I have become a pro at crossing the street (right to left) and I can hang out at the local pub drinking pints and shandies with the best of them. Not to mention I handle the tube system like a true Londoner.
I may have had some rough times finding an internship but I really feel like I have found a great place. PR is completely new to me but the people I work with are vey nice and they represent some amazing clients like Godiva, Versace and Lacoste.
It is true, what doesn't kill you only makes you stronger. And all the stress and frustration definitely made me stronger and appreciate where I am now (sorry to get all sentimental on you).
Everyday is a new exciting exploration, providing to be different than the one before it. Whether I am climbing to the top of St. Paul's Cathedral, going to see Wicked, or just shopping at the local street markets, this city has an infinite amount of possibilities.
My time here has barely started and I am so excited to see what else comes my way. So I say this for one of the last times, "Who the hottest in the world right now…just touched down in London town."
