Camera

Just a quickie, as really I don't have anything to divulge, other than the fact that I got my camera! I am very excited, and have been snapping away like a crazy person!

I don't think my pictures have got any better, but I think that the results will be better as I get to grips with the camera and how it works etc. It's really nice to just carry it around and take pictures of random stuff and not feel like an idiot because I have a decent camera. I do think that because I'm trying to pursue it a bit more, it is important to have a pretty good camera to do so.

Anyway, enough of my rambling, I'm just very over-excited!

Also excited as I went to see Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen on Saturday afternoon and it was AMAZING! I want to go and see it again it was so good!! I am a bit of a geek I know, but it was brilliant!!

Anyway, I don't think I really have much else to report now, but hope everyone is well, and I look forward to seeing you all soon!

Much love

I've been thinking a lot recently (and yes, it did hurt before you even think of asking!), and I have come to the realisation that I think I must be quite an annoying friend... I am always so down on myself and I can see why people wouldn't really want to hang around with me while I'm in that frame of mind. I guess if I don't like myself, how on earth can I expect other people to like me? Well, today marks the end... I really just want to pick myself up and be happy! I have had a lot of pretty sh**ty things happen to me, but then again, so have lots of other people, and they're not all mopey! I just want to start following my dreams and enjoying things a bit more. Obviously, I'd love to get a really well paid job where I can take photos and sing and write all day, but being that it's highly unlikely, I am just going to write when I can and take pics all the time and just enjoy the process of doing them. I'm 27 for f**k sake, I can't keep waiting for something interesting to happen, I need to MAKE it happen! I know I've said in previous blogs that we need to realise what is important, and I just haven't done anything about it, well no more people, a page has been turned and I am going to make something of myself. Watch out, I'm a-coming!!!
I heard that George Lamb had split up with his Mrs (HOW excited was I when I heard that!!), so Sally, if you ever see him in the BBC bar again, please give him my number! I'm so totally going after him!!!! ha ha ha! Highly unlikely that he'd be remotely interested and probably will think I look like a gargoyle (and he'd be correct!), but hey, I think he's hot, so I'm going after him!!!!!!
Anyway, I hope everyone is keeping well, and I hope to see you all soon!
Big Love

Do you guys ever stop and wonder how you got here? Here being in this particular place and time. How did I become a 26 year old, unemployed, married, uni student?

Here We Go Again....!

I'm back! It does concern me somewhat that I seem to be one of the only ones who actually writes anything at all on this blog... Does that mean that I have an excessive amount of things to share with everyone, or does it simply mean that because I have time to blog, I have no life? I am actually more inclined to go with the latter...

It is such a beautiful day today, and I can't believe I'm having to sit in my dark and dreary office working. We should all be outside playing Pooh sticks!!!

I'm still obsessed with Twitter, I think it's that weird feeling that the celebs that you're "following" might actually look at what you're doing and will possibly "follow" you back... I'm such a freak it's unbelievable!! I do love it though!!

I've not really been up to much of late (obviously - when do I ever do anything of note!), just working, blogging, tweeting and watching tv really!!! However, I've been spending a bit more time reading, and more time out in the garden with my camera snapping away, I'm really getting into photography, and am actually getting not too bad at it which is good! I really want to get a new camera though. I love my little Sony one for snaps and taking on a night out, but I'd love to get a dSLR so I can get some really edgy and decent nature shots... I'd like to do more pictures of people also, there's something so fascinating about human behaviour, and to be able to capture that in a photo just excites me! Just need to basically carry my camera around ALL the time and then I should be able to start building up a decent portfolio.

Well, I think I've managed to talk about myself for long enough - there's only so much of myself I can take, so I'm sure y'all reached your limit after the first 2 sentances!!! - so I will sign off.

Hope you're all well.

Big Love xxxxx

Tweet!

Oh Lordy, I am now completely obsessed with Twitter! How ridiculous is that?! I seriously have no life! I just get up, go to work, spend the majority of the day either blogging or tweeting (and working obviously!) and then I go home and watch TV and then it all starts again the next day. How did get into this rut, seriously?! I need to do something about this! Any suggestions??!! (apart from sticking me in the asylum were I belong!)

Anyway, had an interesting weekend... Had a half day on Friday and went shopping, stayed in on Friday night to look after Logan as my mum and dad were out visiting my grandparents, went food shopping on Saturday morning and then met Dilip, Max, Gary, Wes, Christian and some others for a few drinks in Kingston which was cool. Got up on Sunday and gave blood and then had a really severe reaction which left me bed-ridden for the rest of the day - still not feeling great now - My nan came over for a visit yesterday which was nice, but quite hard work. I think she thinks I'm stupid. We played Scrabble and she won and she kept saying things like "oh, well I wasn't trying that hard" and stuff like that, made me feel like I was an utter retard (excuse the un-pc term, but that's honestly how I felt).

Back at work today and my boss is in a foul mood. I honestly don't know how the entrance of one man can so drastically change the atmosphere of the office. He's always so angry and moody, it just rubs off on everyone else. Really not fair. Ah well, he's on holiday next week. Whoop whoop!

Right, that's enough of me now. Hope you're all well!

calling all sexy ladies!!!

hello ladies! how are you? my goodness it has been a while! i am sooo rubbish at this.
i see Becky and Renee has been busy!!! good girls! so how are we all? i am still at this shitty job which is getting worse by the minute! where do i even begin to tell you??! i just can't there are no words to describe it! ha ha ha.

so renee! love the car and the town house! you gonna get it! i want it! it is beautiful!!!! when u coming to uk? we have to have a proper night out! (i really need one) have you got a dog yet? i want to get a dog too! kayne loves them! but i don't know.. it's a little too much for us right now. maybe in the future!

becky! have you thought about when we are going to go out? are you going to the race in june?

i need to find some time for myself before i go loopy!
miss you all!!!!!!!

Ugh, Work Again!

I've noticed a pattern in the majority of my titles for this blog and they all centre around the fact that I really don't want to be at work! I really realise now that I really don't want to be doing what I'm doing at all, it's fine for paying the bills, but why should I settle just for something that pays the bills? I obviously have all my debts to contend with which is why paying the bills is very important, but I don't want to be sat trying to sell over door heaters all day everyday for the forseeable future. That's not fun! I shouldn't really complain because I am close to home so can walk to work and go home for lunch which means my work life balance is better that it was when working at IAP, but I am not happy here. I get on well with everyone, and I don't get a sense of dread about going to work (always a positive!) but I know that I just don't want to be here. Ah well, I guess I just have to lump it for now!

Anyway, on a more positive note and following on from Renee's blog about her puppy, we brought home a new friend on Friday afternoon. He's a 3 year old Labrador Cross, we got him from a rescue home and we've renamed him Logan! he's adorable, a bit of a nutter, but we love him!

Went to see Coraline yesterday which was actually really good! haven't been to see a 3D film in YEARS, so it was actually great fun to sit there with the 3D glasses on!!!

Apart from that, nothing exciting is going on!

Hope you're all well!?

Much love
