All work and no play!

Been working my socks off! So haven't had time for a blog update!

Not much has been happening recently, just working, working and more working!
Day off tomorrow! Bonus! Going in to town for some much needed retail therapy (and some much needed fast food!)

Summer is almost upon us! So it's time to dig out those bikinis and grab yourself an ice-cream!
I have to admit i'm going to miss my tights, uggs and cute cardigans. But can't wait for the hot summer days and long summer nights :)

Also July is when I get to see my lovely big sis for the first time in NINE months! I really miss her, and can't wait to catch up and get absolutely pissed!

Hope everyone had a good easter! I was working but did get to indulge in an egg or two afterwards!
The best thing about easter? When it's over and the eggs go half-price! Kit kat anyone? ;)

Until next time bloggers.

30 day photo challenge! Day 26: A picture of something that means a lot to you




My family.

I love them all to pieces! My mum, my dad, my big sis Kelly, my nephew Jay!
Love you all forever you mean the world to me :)

30 day photo challenge! Day 25: A picture of your favorite day

My favourite day? I've had so many it's too hard to pick just one!



Being with my sister, going shopping, having lunch and partying! We always have a brilliant time together.

Going on holiday with Lee, swimming, shopping, eating, drinking and having the best time.

Being with my mum anytime, anyday :)

Spending time with my dad just in general :)

Seeing my beautiful nephew Jay, playing with him and taking him to the arcade.



30 day photo challenge! Day 24: A picture of something you wish you could change

I wish i could change.. The past.

Things I've said, things i've done, things that happened and things that i wish never happened.
People always say ' you can learn from your mistakes' but when can you really ever learn from your mistakes? If try something stupid and realise it was stupid then you've learnt from your mistake. But what about things that you've done which were the right thing to do but it still was a mistake?
How do you learn from them? The past would be great to change to stop yourself from having that haircut or wearing those trousers. But maybe the past is best left where it is because without your past, you wouldn't be the person you are today.



30 day photo challenge! Day 23: A picture of your favorite book

This one is so hard because I love reading and have many favourite books!
I've whittled it down to two!

The Princess Diaries and I heart New York.





30 day photo challenge! Day 22: A picture of something you wish you were better at

I wish i was better at standing up for myself.

I'm pretty shy and I let people walk all over me and treat me badly. But I never say anything.
People are always telling me to just stand my ground but I find it really hard.

I wish i could but i can't stand confrontation, I'd rather just keep quiet and carry on.

30 day photo challenge! Day 21: A picture of something you wish you could forget

What goes on in this twisted world... death, murder, rape, abuse, animal abuse, child abuse, violence and just evil people.



30 day photo challenge! Day 20: A picture of somewhere you'd love to travel

America!  New York City, Las Vegas, LA, Seattle, California, Arizona, Miami, Florida... you name it I wanna see it!









30 day photo challenge! Day 19: A picture and a letter

I have no idea what this means, so I'm just gonna make it up as I go along and see how it goes :)

Dear myself,

Don't worry about what other people think about you. Don't let people get to you so easily. Stand up for yourself more. Try not to be so shy. Have fun and don't worry so much. Live every day to the fullest. Smile through the pain. Never let anybody hurt you or push you around.

Love myself x



30 day photo challenge! Day 18: A picture of your biggest insecurity

Like most women I'd have to say body image. I have insecurities like many women, and some days I feel great about myself and others I feel like absolute crap! I just try to focus on the positives!

30 day photo challenge! Day 17: A picture of something that has made a huge impact on your life recently

Working.
Having a job has really made me value money and how much of a hard days work is involved to earn money. I work really hard and to the best of my ability and by the end of the week I know I've earnt my wages.
I'm so glad I'm independent and want to work to pay for the things I want or need.

 

30 day photo challenge! Day 16: A picture of someone who inspires you




Marge Simpson! She puts up with so much crap. Shes a long-suffering wife who puts up with the antics of her children and her oafish husband, runs a house and cooks and cleans for a family of five. Love her! Shes an inspiration!

the best telly shows on telly! part uno!

I've spent hours (slight exaggeration) putting together a list of my favourite tv shows!

And here it is...  (in no particular order)

1. Eastenders (Gotta love it, with so many 'Rickkkkkaaay's' and 'Get outta my pub's' to shake a stick at, how could you ever get bored!)

2. Desperate Housewives (Seven seasons and still going strong, secrets, mysteries and drama, love it! plus Mikes cute!)

3. CSI: Crime Scene Investigaton (It's now on it's eleventh season, Grissom is brilliant! Love all the plots, twists and turns and brilliant murders)

4. Shameless (I can sum it up in one word.. Frank Gallagher (okay that was two words..) Hilariously funny, and so well written. If you haven't already seen it, watch it!)

5. Sex and the City (Sex, love, laughs, tears and Mr Big! It's fabulous! (as Carrie would say)

6. The Simpsons (The funny yellow family have had me howling with laughter for years! Jump on the Simpson bandwagon!)

7. Medium (As the title states, it's about a medium called Allison DuBois, it's brilliant underated show! Give it a watch!)

8. Prison Break (I'll admit I was a bit dubious about watching this, but my boyfriend wore me down, and i'm so glad because it's brilliant! Hot prison bodies (i mean blokes) Action, drama and a fantastic story about a man trying to help his brother (who is very fit by the way)

9. Take Me Out (Throw the very funny (and cute) Paddy Mcguinness, thirty single ladies and some very hot (some very awful) men and you've got the best dating show since Blind Date!)

10. Celebrity Juice (Keith Lemon is brilliant! From Fearne Cottons nostrils to Holly Willaboobys boobys, throw in some celeb trivia and you'll never get bored! Bang Tidy!  (as Keith Lemon would say!)

30 day photo challenge! Day 14: A picture of someone you could never imagine your life without

My dad, I love him lots! Hes always there for me and makes me laugh! Love you dad!




Who doesn't love a bargain?

I've been so busy this past few weeks, works been tiring me right out! But payday means only one thing... shopping!
I've just bought myself a dress for only £2.99! (I got mine in coral)
From h&m in sizes 6-24 in colours blue and floral, powder beige and floral, dark blue and coral!















Until next time bloggers! Let me know if you bought the dress, or if you have snapped up any other brilliant bargains!

30 day photo challenge! Day 13: A picture of your favorite band or artist

Bowling for soup! Absolutely love them, saw them in concert in 2007 and they were ahmazing!



30 day photo challenge! Day 12: A picture of something you love

Holidays!  I love them!  Chilling out in the sun, swimming in the pool, eating delicious food. And just getting away from rainy England. Me and Lee have so much fun everytime we get away. It's lovely to spend some time with him away from work, everything and everyone!
I've been to so many places I've lost count, but my favourite place for it's year round sunshine, boozy bars and ahmazing food has to be Lanzarote!

30 day photo challenge! Day 11: A picture of something you hate

Cruelty to women, children and animals! There are some evil people in the world who abuse children, harm women and treat animals terribly. They prey on them because there vunerable. Children and animals can't defend themselves. And no woman should ever be physically or mentally abused by anyone! I hate that this still goes on everyday all across the world.
