My arms actually feel like they`ve been pulled out of their sockets - Mood:Good

Monday March 07 201111:58:02 AM |

I went to a ceilidh on Friday night. It was fantastic! We did this dance called the Cumberland square eight, and theres a bit where the girls get spun round off the ground. I had a very enthusiastic partner and our set ended up spinning out of control and onto the floor. It hurt a bit! There's lots of dances where you hook arms with your partner and spin them and most of the time you just get thrown around. It's great fun But the next morning it actually felt like I'd dome a full workout. Which I actually did do this morning and boy did it hurt. First time I've had to tell my trainer that I physically couldn't finish the reps. Totally worth it though!

I had my first YT dream in years last night! Jstckndamale, Sammy and Lyntess, you were in it! - Mood:Good

Wednesday March 02 20115:56:15 AM |

Time for another break perhaps? Anyhoo, I worked for Lyntess at Cakettes and Sammy and jstckndamale were getting ready to open a branch in Australia (why jst was living there, I don't know). I was getting really pissed off because they were amazing at it and could do no wrong but me and my friend wanted to open our own branch but Lyntess wouldn't let us because our cakeballs looked shocking. I ended up hating my friend because I wanted to take my time and make everyone look beautiful but she just drew on them with felt pens. Then Tess and Chris were doing that interview that she posted and Christ was being all weird and controlling, dictating exactly what he wanted said in the article and every time the journalist was about to say something, Tess threw a cakeball in his mouth.

So I stepped on the scales this morning annnnnd I have lost my first stone! I am 14.5 lbs lighter than when I started my diet/exercise about 7 weeks ago. I'm well chuffed. I really want to go shopping as I've dropped a dress size but it seems silly to buy clothes that I am intending to be too small for soon. Yay for belts! What are you happy about today?

A good thing and a bad thing happened today - Mood:Good

Monday February 07 20116:05:05 PM |

I got the new job! It's with the Scottish Lib Dems and all I need to do is phone people and find out their voting preference. It's £2 an hour more than my last job, less hours and less stress. I'm going to have totally free weekends for the first time in 6 years Then I went to buy some more foundation because mine has ran out, only to find it's been discontinued. Anyone who's had this will understand my frustration! They had one bottle left so I have a couple more months then I have to go through the arduous process of finding another. Ugh. Overall a good day though

Do you think this is being selfish? - Mood:Good

Wednesday February 02 20113:02:53 PM |

I'll try and keep this as short as I can. I am a supervisor which means I have keys to the shop and can run the shop on my own. The shop can function on a minimum of 3 key holders but ideally 4 including manager and assistant manager. I don't enjoy my job, it's interfering with uni. My hours did go down though and it was fab. Had enough time to concentrate on uni properly. But the manager swapped with a manager from another store bt then quit so other store has no manager. The other supervisor also quit so we are very stretched. Ideally I would like no more than 12 hours but the next 3 weeks the rota says it'll be about 23 hours a week and I don't see this changing any time soon as the company is very slow at hiring. ctnd....

Not the best of birthdays - Mood:Good

Thursday January 13 20118:38:43 AM |

It was my birthday yesterday The work rota had been done ages ago and I wasn't worked so I made plans to go home and have dinner with my family. I checked on Friday and I had been put into work because the person meant to be on that day was doing an overnight shift instead and there was no way I was getting out of it. Pissed to say the least. I wouldn't have minded as much if they had just asked me! They didn't even tell me so if I hadn't checked the rota and not turned up, it would be my fault. Get to work yesterday and she's there! She didn't do the nightshift after all and didnt bother telling me because she figured I would have canceled my plans anyway. Grrrrrrrrrrrr. Ended up just going to see 127 Hours with my boyfriend. I've broken my arm in the same place and it hurts like a bitch after seeing it

My first personal training session is booked in for this Friday. Have been looking up the bio of the trainer and she is beautiful and uber fit. Professional dancer too. Atleast she could make this quite fun then. Was kind of hoping for one of the sexy guys but they reckon shes best suited to what I need. Wish me luck! And any advice would be mucho appreciated.

Am I completely mad? - Mood:Good

Sunday January 09 20112:49:45 PM |

Something has just switched in my brain and I am utterly sick and tired of being the way I am. I'm the same old story. Tried losing weight in the past and never managed to keep it off etc etc. So... 5 week indoor boot camp! 5 workouts a week for 5 weeks, nutritional advice, all meals provided (I think), 5 weeks of gym membership and then continuted support thereafter. If I book tomorrow its £150, after that it's £600. Severly tempted. The last one they ran, the average weight loss was 11 pounds and one girl lost 2 stone! I think I need someone telling me what to do and where and when to do it. Plus seeing the results would be amazing motivation. Whaddya think YT?

My poor kitchen It has a false ceiling. This is the crawlspace above, where the original ceiling is f*cked. Lots of leaks mean the kitchen ceiling is about to fall down and it's taking months and months and lawyer after lawyer to get it sorted.

I finished work today and noticed John Lewis was open so I popped in for a nosey before my bus. Got myself a nice early birthday present. Got 4 of each of the big plates, wee plates and bowls but they aren't in the picture. Figured that since I wasn't meant to be working today, and it's double pay because of the bank holiday that I may aswell treat myself. Have you treated yourself to anything extravagent recently?

I have been with my boyfriend for a year and a half and it is going fabulously. He's met my parents a few times, I've met his once for dinner but not met his brother yet. They've invited me to stay for new year I thought my boss wouldn't give me the time off but she has so this is actually happening. It's at their holiday cottage in the arse end of nowhere. I'm kind of excited but far more nervous. What if they give us the choice of where we sleep? What do I say? Eeeeep! I'm going to have to buy some sensible PJs.

Monday December 06 201010:08:59 AM |

So it snowed a bit again today. Managed to get to uni and so did my lecturer. I got a lift back with someone as soon as our class was finished as we didn't fancy our chances leaving it any later. Left at just the right time! The roads were awful and now our usually very dependable buses have completely stopped! All buses all over the city! Have never seen it happen before. So now I have lots of friends stranded at uni which you can't really walk back from and is atleast an hours walk to where people live and thats in normal conditions. Exams for today have been cancelled. I have my first one tomorrow and it looks like that will postponed too. Can't decide if I want to get it out of the way or whether I want more time to revise. Oh well s'pose it isn't up to me!

Back in August a damp patch appeared on my kitchen wall. It came from the flat upstairs. They kept saying they fixed it and it kept getting worse. Over a month later it stopped but the damage is so bad that my whole kitchen ceiling has to come down and all the walls need replastering. Then I woke up to water flooding into my bathroom. Turns out that was them over flowing their sink and they haven't have the courtesy to apologised. That eventually got sorted after alot of faffing. ctnd

Thursday December 02 20101:53:54 PM |

Can always rely on YT for some good old procrastination! My first exam is on Tuesday. Energy Principles and Applications. So far all I've done is printed out the notes. I did watch Harry Potter 1-6 over Tuesday and yesterday though. The snows been so bad that revision lectures got cancelled and the uni was closed. Library is open today so I stocked up on Pringles and waded to the bus stop to see if being there would help me revise. Sadly not Try and motivate me YT! Or give me better stuff to procrastinate with. PenguinCam is getting a bit samey now.

Just tried hooking my ps2 up to my new tv for the first time using component cables (don't have a scart lead). The tv has lots of different colour ports but the ones labled comonents are red, green and blue. I've tried all the different combinations and I can get it working but only in black and white and with no sound. Any ideas how to get it to work?

What are you doing today? (and most of the night probably) - Mood:Good

Tuesday March 16 201012:28:07 PM |

I'm doing this: Draw a section (25 marks) through a typical domestic dwelling constructed from outer brick & internal aac block walls. The roof is composed of a trussed rafter finished with interlocking concrete tiles. This drawing must be produced to a suitable scale to enable it to fit on 1 x A3 sheet of paper or drawing trace. In addition to this section, provide the following details at a scale 1:5 · Suspended timber ground floor construction (25 marks) · Intersection of first floor and external walls (25 marks) · Eaves detail (25 marks) All details must be drawn in ink, fully annotated and dimensioned. Ideally, your work should be produced on A3 sheets of paper or drawing trace. The section should be drawn at a suitable scale to allow it to fit on a single A3 sheet. The remaining details should each be drawn on separate A3 sheets. Oh yeeeeeeeeeeah.

Hi by the way. Long time no see. Wonder who remembers me hmmmm... Anyways I have been dating a guy since the start of uni, about 4 months now. He just got a new job. You know those little bike rickshaw taxi things, yes you may laugh now, yep he drives one of them. In the winter. In a city he doesn't know that well. Fair enough he doesn mountain biking and stuff but he sort of needs to know where he's going. Anyways, his first shift was on Friday night. I didn't hear from him untill the next afternoon where he told me he got back at 6am (buses stop at 4am) and he lost his wallet. Luckily his takings was in a wee money belt thing he has so it's not too bad.

I GOT TICKETS FOR SCOTT MILLS THE MUSICAL Can't wait, it's going to be hilarious! It's the last one so loads of Radio 1 DJs like Vernon Kay there I forgot to get tickets online but they give out a few tickets before the morning of each show so I went along at 10am and queue for 2 and a half hours. Not like I had anything better to do I finally got to the ticket booth and the person infront of me had got the last 2. I just stood staring at the guy in shock and he must ave thought I was going to cry or something cos he got on his walkie talkie and managed to release an extra 10 tickets! My mate Jo is going with me and she's mega excited too! I'm going to wear my David Hasselhoff t shirt
