"Even The Longest Journey Begins With a Single Step”

I cannot believe

I go on Sunday!!

I am absolutely terrified, i feel more nervous this time than i did last time which i know is stupid cause I'm with a different (better) company, im there for less time and i dont have any of this six trains, three buses and a boat rubbish i did last time.
I think I'm going to miss home more this time because i have more here than i did last time. Going to try and keep myself busy this time and just keep occupied. Im going to be back before i know it i think cause it is a really short contract this time round.

Two Days!!

If this happened at my work it would make my night

From not always right

(I’m a customer here. When you place an order, the cashier asks for a name to call when the order is ready. As I’m finishing my lunch and getting ready to go, I hear over the intercom speakers…)

Employee: “Aragorn, the firstborn son of Arathorn, your order is ready!”

£161 million






Necker Island - Richard Bransons island.
If i won the european lottery i would be buying an island rather like this one. Its lovely and amazing and private. Imagine a chill out crash pad that is literally all yours when you need some time to think or an exclusive party location when you feel like being madly social.

Imagine waking up to that view
And the people who won dont want to spend it, what the hell is wrong with them!!!!

Paris


I really want to go to Paris, its one of major European cities i've not seen. I want to take pictures of really random things and eat pastries.

=]


Trying to figure out how to take this photograph took blinking ages and then i gave up and James did it instead cause he is obviously more talented than me at turning a torch on and off. Really enjoyed that day though. Wandering round a nature reserve i didn't even know was there, switching shifts to have a movie evening with pizza then freezing my bum off to go into the same nature reserve which is a lot creepier at night to take more pictures and then watching stars.

Life

Right now i want a wee email or a call with travel details and a destination so badly it hurts. I want to know what I'm doing when i get back. I want to know what next year at uni is going to be like. Im trying really hard not to spend all my time looking forward to things and enjoy what i have right now but i feel all disorganized cause i haven't a clue what happening and its driving me up the walls.

This is me right now

To the beach

Weather was lovely so figured a wee day out to the beach was needed a couple of days ago. Rather enjoyed my little outing before work. Sat and ate KFC and nearly hit sophies car but asides from that twas marvelous.

Fairy Lights

Moved these little fairy lights off my curtain pole and round my mirror today as a way to just make my room look a little bit different. Also found a really fun new blog to follow that had a wee section on fair lights - http://www.frockandrollonline.com/

Burger Cupcakes!

Went to a friends BBQ and thought these little treats would fit right in if all went wrong and the BBQ meat went up in flames and took out the garden shed. Thankfully it didn't as all the food has been pre-cooked in a grill and even we cant mess up a BBQ when all were doing is reheating. Anyway i ramble. So basically these are pack mix muffins in two different flavours sandwiched together with butter icing + green food colouring (high as kites) then sprinkled with seasame seeds for the authentic look. Kinda fiddly to make but loads of fun.

Frank Turner, woop woop

Changed?

Swirly Nails

Was so proud of this for a first attempt at a really odd way to paint nails.

Eggy Park

That climbing thing is amazing yet terrifying at the same time, its alot higher than i thought and the spaces between the foot holds are huge, IM ONLY LITTLE! And umm check out those clouds.

3OH3!


With the lassie infront of me who kept her and like that the entire gig like she was knocking on a door. And who ever invented strobe lighting i personally want to go slap them round the head, was a good gig though.

Fishes

As long as you dont think of the feeling as being caused by fish this is actually rather relaxing. And it does make your feet feel smoother after

To-do List

Got myself a nice to do list, actually been rather busy this week once i manage to get my bum out of bed, had quite a few shifts at work and when im not there actually been trying to socialise. Started a new photo challenge thing as well where i have to take a picture every day of something. Got 4 so far.

Got my frank Turner tickets in the post as well, excitement!

Just wish i could shift this ruddy cold.

True

Getting priority's straight in life is very important. What seems like the end of the world isn't. Its a change of direction, a new opportunity, Stop looking so hard for one thing and appreciate the bigger picture.

Apt

Jeff

This is what a guinea pig looks like about 2 seconds before he chews the end of your nose. Evil in those eyes

Woohoo

Discovered a new setting on my phone that lets me upload pictures super quick to a really random account on my computer, day slightly made.

Pictures

Been trying to take a picture every day of something ive done that day. Only problem is now their on my phone my twitters gone all blarg and wont upload them, woe is me

Gran Canaria

I slept with my back out the window cause it was the coolest place i could find, anyone getting up early may have had an interesting view.

Got followed round that pool by some weird german guy, was weird....

The three bears


Three bears from three of the most important men in my life (from left to right)

Kind of nameless bear (from my Dad)

I know that deep down he just wants whats best for me. I know i make stupid decisions sometimes and sometimes he's there to try and stop me and other times hes just there to pick up the pieces when i learn on my own it was a stupid mistake. I don't think many 18 year olds dads would have let them run off to a foreign country on their own or agree that its a good idea when they decide to do it all again. Hugs have always been on offer when things go wrong and congratulations always offered when things go right.

Monty (from Scott)

Brought back from your first foriegn adventure. Awfully proud of you for doing something on your own. I know you've lived a somewhat sheltered life thus far but that's going to change for you. Come dine with me days (I ate beetroot for the right to host that day), swimming perhaps even cycling. One way or another life is going to be forced upon you.

Bisquits (From my Ian)

I know we're not what we were but the fact we are what we are is still amazing to me. You put up with my madness and my confusingness like a saint and i don't understand where you find the patience.

Pretty new dress

Excuse the face, was rather tired
See it has colour!! So proud of myself
And the best thing about this dress, SALE!!

Easy A


Love this film <3

catch-up

Poor little neglected blog needs some updating.

I have been online just not been terribly active at updating my activities. Actually had somewhat of a social life this week.

Got back from a week away with the girls in Gran Canaria which was very very warm. Spent most of the holiday lying in the shade either by the pool or at the beach with massive drinks of diet cola. Ate loads of ritz crackers and philly cheese. Looked at the nice men. Was raped by a slide.

Back to work on wednesday, had a fairly quiet shift to ease me back in which was good. As sad as it is i missed that place when i was away. Now firmly of the belief that on my dead bed ill still be able to tell you what goes on a full house.

Thursday was fairly quiet during the day - pretty sure i didnt do much. Went to the Carrick for a drink (non-alcoholic) at night then headed to pitchers for a rock night after. Didnt really know a lot of the music cause it was heavier than what i normally listen to and it was really really loud so took the opportunity to traumatize an old friend from Glasgow via text message and to catch up with someone nearer to home. Need to arrange something soon where i can actually hear people when they talk to me, much better for conversing.

Friday had a close at work with the guys which wasn't as fast as i thought it would be but wasn't too bad, watching a very tall person fold themselves into the back of a Clio was highly amusing.

Saturday i went shopping!!! Bought a really pretty dress that actually has colour in it, be impressed. Went down the town as well to buy craft materials and then sat in the back garden and pinkened my shoulders while decoupaging. Then cause i is a cool kid i sat in the house and played scrabble, on a saturday night.

Sunday = KFC. Went to the beach with said KFC and checked out the local talent, of which there was none. Had a rush at work, got well ripped into by a couple of customers then went to lynz's for a BBQ. I learned how to more smores!!! They are actually really good. Have eaten a stupid amount of junk food today. Now sitting on bed blogging and watching blood and chocolate while jeff charges around and nibbles my under the bed storage boxes.
