Im in London still

Wonder if you can pick up my accent on the phone when I call across the country when I call across the world...

I remember a few years ago listening to the Waifs at womad, when they played  'im in london still' i remember thinking that i wish i could be the person singing that song. I wished that i could be that girl who went across the world to follow her dreams. Now i'm here!

today i have a day off from work so i'm heading down to stratford with my laptop to do some writing for NaNoWriMo. I decided to stream JJJ while i was getting ready and the waifs came on. It was, in the words of Oprah, a full circle moment. Here i am, in London, being that girl. But there's still some little pang in my heart, listening to the j's its so nice to hear an australian accent. My heart is here in London, i'm having such a wonderful time. But its so weird, even though i don't miss much about Adelaide and i wouldn't go back if someone paid me, it feels a little like i left some other vital organ at home. Some of me here, some of me there. 

Oh I'm in London still

la-la-la-la-la London still

I'm in London
