My god Meesh that dress is... wow!
Phew for yr friend, hope he gets better soon Miss Piggy.
Concur vis a vis Susan from Diskworld. She rules.
Wheyy, reading this thread always cheers me up 😀
My happy is that I went to the cinema last night with my mum and my aunty to see Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter and it was SUCH a good film!! My hair is long enough to behave when I put it up, I've had a fringe cut in which I actually suit, and despite a massive panic over one of my modules (chemistry *shakes fist*) I passed my first year with a 2:1
Its all good in this hood!
Glad to hear your friend is all right, Miss Piggy!
Poh, I miss the "free" feeling that comes with the last exam.
Glitter, glad to hear your daughter is sleeping through the night and mcgvil, that's great news about the interview : )
Meeshy, a good haircut is always a great thing! And Dafts, that sounds promising--good luck!
Roby, I know I already spewed over your tumblr about AL:VH, but I agree, it's beyond awesome! I love how the whole thing is a metaphor. I think it turned out so well because the author of the book ended up writing the screenplay, which almost never happens.
My happy is Friday! And I only have to work Monday and Tuesday before I have just over a week off! AND WE'RE GOING TO THE SAFARI PARK NEXT WEEK! Eeeeep! Oh, and a week Sunday I finally get to have my Batman Party Cake! Plus, my mom's birthday present got to her, my sister says it looks awesome (got some earrings for a real bargain on amazon and was worried about their price being too-good-to-be-true and that they might look cheap, but they don't), my family shipped my birthday present out to me, OH said LoveFilm sent out The Girl Who Played with Fire and The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest, so hoping those came today and we can just chill out and watch films all weekend.
Lots of happiness today 😀
so, the good side to the moan, is that my friend who has always said she won't go swimming (excuses like oh my hair) says she'll go swimming with me when she gets off holiday! thank god man i need to do swimming, if i go a few times a week for 2-2 1/2 hours my weight loss might happen! my mum says she'll go biking with me too when/if it ever gets warmer
I can move in tomorrow! (if the house is habitable) and my mum's just taken me shopping for loads of housey stuff ^_^
I've failed my first year of uni, but I'm a little bit thankful for it, it's made me realise that I don't actually like chemistry that much so I'm going to get in touch with my uni on Monday and see if I can do biology there instead, even if I have to pay the new higher fees.
I've always been good at biology and I find it more interesting that chemistry, I have no idea why I didn't just do it in the first place.
So while I am a bit upset about it's a good wake up call for me, and I'm determined to make something good come out of the situation.
Woke up this morning to find OH had let me sleep in til 10am while he played with the kids, and then he surprised me by dropping the kids off to his parents and taking me out to finally see the avengers film 😀 Had a great time 🙂
Went to our new house yesterday to find the previous tenants had pretty much trashed it so we stayed there last night, had a few drinks, then blasted the kitchen and manky bathroom today, so we have a functioning kitchen (apart from the fridge and the oven) the professional cleaners can deal with the rest!
I can still go to the meet up because my husband is awesome and gave me his overtime money so I can book my hotel even though the reason I couldn't go was because of his brother and having to send him money to bail him out in cambodia (not literally, he wasn't in prison, just spunked all his money on booze and needed money to eat)!
And, I've done my books for June on my business, and I actually made a profit! Only just over £200, but it's still a profit. I'm still in negative money overall because of the investment I put into it at the beginning to buy stock, but if I go purely on June's sales and outgoings, I've made a profit! yay!
The dress is finishedddd you can see it here if you want! http://www.hairdyeforum.com/index.php?topic=3483.50
uhuuuu guys! applied for another jobbuuu!
it's a kinda local tescos, i came in from walking my friend to the bus stop, and she was on the netbook all shadey like she always is, then she goes "you applied on ASDA site ye?" i said yeah, and she was like "oh well i've started an application for tescos for you, there was deli counter ones but they were in the week, and when you have college you can't do that" and she's found me a job on a saturday 12-10pm just regular shop stuff! deadline for apps are tomorrow! so that means they'll be contacting successfull people within the next week or two (i assume) fingers crossed i get ittttt! we added up if i is on minimum wage i may get around £60 for just that saturday 😮
also, my mum's boss started looking through the applications today, so hopefully she gets past the whole "i'm family with a current employee" thing and takes me to interviewzzzzz!
i need a job, and i'm so happy my ma is helping me! (she just wants me to get a job so i don't always ask her for money though probably aha)
The house is a lot cleaner and I have an interview with an agency for employment tomorrow! So I might actually be earning sometime soon!
No work for just over a week, yay! I keep forgetting that it's not Friday. Started off the holiday time with a little pizza, shandy and a gigantic chocolate chip cookie (thanks to my sister in law ... it was delicious). Probably gonna go curl up and read soon 😀
my son is doing his practice induction week in college ready for the september enrollment and its going pretty well. =)
I've lost some weight!
I've been cutting down my meals only, like instead of feeling all 'OMG i'm going to explode' after a meal I've been eating till I just about feel full and not pushing myself. Also not eating any junk food like chocolate and things although I didn't really before. But I still eat chips, only a small handful though!
I also went from 3 sugars in my cuppa to 2 sugars (HUGE deal for me!!)
In a month I've lost 13lb, just under a stone!!
YAY!
