Moving :)

June 24, 2012

Woo well aren’t I happy haha

The reason?! We finally found a nice new flat to move into :)

We’ve pretty much been looking for a new place since moving into the flat we have now…don’t get me wrong it’s a nice little place but it’s too small for 2 people if you ask me. Back in Newcastle I’m used to decent sized houses/flats with separate kitchens and back yards (even if they are shared with your next door neighbour) but up here it seems that the living area is directly attached to your kitchen and your “back yard” is shared with the whole entire tenement block “/ which makes me uncomfortable tbh.

The flat we have at the moment is rather small and very white! And even though none of us have touched the walls (although I can’t vouch for Jack exactly – he’s probably touching the walls to make me think I’m going mad) they just look grubby since I’ve taken the canvases off the wall “/ (I’m hoping they don’t take money out my deposit to re-paint) :(

I would be sad since we don’t have any money left and don’t have any plates, cups, utensils and lots of other stuff (this flat is fully furnished and the new flat isn’t) but I think it’s better that way as I don’t feel so on edge when using something :)

so yeah since we decided to move it seems like everything is breaking “/ like the bath tap broke, the shower started to melt, the dimmer switch doesn’t work now so it’s all been replaced and I swear the landlord has tried their best to make us feel guilty about it but like I said it wasn’t our fault (they are all old items) and it’s classed as wear and tear which in the agreement states ah yadda yadda yadda :D

 

So yeah enough of that I am not fully aware of what I am babbling on about so if it doesn’t make sense then I do apologise hehe :P

But anyhoo this new flat is bigger and cheaper :D with 2 bedrooms and a built in wardrobe, a bigger kitchen (fair enough its still attached to the living area) but its bigger and has much more storage ooh with a bigger bathroom and a big storage cupboard…ahh I am really happy with the new flat already and have yet to move in which might I add happens on MONDAY! (tomorrow)

I’m so excited xD

as excited as that guy :P

so I shall be posting photo of the new flat when we get in and get sorted ….Keep an eye out in the future ;)

Much Love

xoxo

Piercings updated…

June 5, 2012

Ok so remember I told you that I was deciding on a piercing for my birthday off the mister?… well I decided irrationally when I got to the studio and opted for my septum pierced…Now everyone bare in mind that I have had this piercing before and took it out for reason that seemed to have escaped me…

So as I sat there in this little studio I randomly blurted out ooh I’ll have my septum done please :D with yes you guessed, my stupid grin haha and so I was given forms to fill out and then was led into a teeny room and was told to lie down… I chose to have a ring put in rather than the bar because I recall it being uncomfortable “/ then I started thinking well I took it out for a reason it couldn’t have been that bad so we shall see how it looks…This was because he was already marking where to pierce and didn’t want to change my mind to be thrown out eek!

It seemed to hurt alot more than I remember this time round although the guy was very very thorough which I liked he was just very very slow which I didn’t like so much since he was taking what felt like forever to push the needle through :(

I was pretty chuffed and thought I do like it I remember that it looks good when in what was I bothered about the first time…

When It began to heal I noticed that even though he had been good and thorough the actual piercing wasn’t straight…and due to the person I am…It bugged me sooooo much “/

Then it began to irritate me when I breathed since I have a small nasal passage, I found this out due to having to have a nose stud cut out (it had locked) and the guy couldn’t get these teeny pliers up my nose

anyways I have decided that it was too unevenly pierced for me to live with and too irritating “/ so I am yet again without piercing haha oh well my ears will have to do for now (I do want my lip re-done though) hehe I only took it out for work not that I didn’t like them YAY

So to make me happier after removing my septum ring I have stretched my ear a little bigger it’s now 10mm only 4mm left to go :D

 

hehe I <3 piercings

Much love

Mini film fest

June 5, 2012

Ahh I love Sundays when I’m not at work although I do get more money for being at work but this sunday was great I got to spend the day with my mister and since we have been dealing with alot lately it has been really nice to get out together (I think it’s the start of a new beginning for us)

So we decided to waste some monies and have a film fest at VUEcinema in Edinburgh!

We got to see two films I have been almost dying to see Prometheus and of course the Marvels avengers assemble :D Oh glad tiding that film brings xD

Ok so…Prometheus 

Tbh I was rather disappointed with this film… I guess from what I had read I was expecting too much, Altho the effects and such were pretty darn good the actual story was underwhelming for me, It did not hold my attention very well and if I’m honest I’m very surprised I didn’t fall asleep. I’m glad we went to see this one first I think it would have ruined my mood for the next film. I know a few people are saying that it was a good film but for others it has left alot of open questions…For me it was just a “wait till it comes out on dvd before seeing” Not worth my monies :(

Ok next up the avengers

Oh My Bloody God! I just loved this film…the effects were amazing, the characters worked so well and I was a bit sceptical with a few but they did pretty darn good. I’m a total geek and I do love my superhero’s (Batman is not a superhero he is just a hero  - there is a difference people)

But this film was great, I loved how well Mark Ruffalo and Robert Downey Jr worked together. I know alot of people said that they should have kept Edward Norton as Bruce banner but I gotta say I enjoyed Mark’s interpretation very much :)

I don’t really think I have anything bad to say about this film, It was done really well and I certainly can’t think of my favourite part as there were so many :D I’m still excited off finally getting to see it!!!!

Next films in line to see are:

Men in Black,

Snow white and the huntsman (Altho I think I might wait till dvd release due to Kristen  Stewart as I don’t like her as an actress)

Abraham Lincoln: Vampire hunter,

Dark Knight (I like heroes too) and esp Mr Bale haha :P

Madagascar 3,

Total Recall (Altho not looking forward to Colin Farrell),

Silent Hill Revelations,

There are still a few that have already been released that I would like to see that I missed so will keep you posted when I get to see them :)

You know it dawns on me that I couldn’t tell you what “girly” films are out since I generally don’t watch many (I need to watch more of them)  If you have any suggestions feel free to let me know :D

Peace For now

Falling flat

May 24, 2012

Ok so I said I was going to post more haha but let me explain to you all :)

I had a Lovely week off with the mister we got new piercings (mine did not last 3 weeks) I got my septum pierced but found it abit hard to breathe during the healing process and it wasn’t straight which bugged me soooo much (I’m a stickler for symmetrical things) so it would never have lasted even if I could breathe lol then we went to Frankie and Benny’s for some very tasty foods :D thanks to my mister I had a lovely birthday Many kisses to him <3

 

The I spent the rest of the week as you may have seen baking bread and nommy things most of it didnt make my blog because it was gone too quickly (My belly was so happy) for a while anyways lol

Then I went back to work (Here came the tears) I did not want but it hasn’t been so bad finally started my supervisor training which has made me happy (even tho I should really finish my wedding planning course first) don’t think it will ever happen but I’ve paid sooooo much monies for it booo :’( I will finish it (It’s my plan for saturday to get my latest assignment done :))

Then I lost track of how much time in the day I no longer have with work getting in the way of my sleep time haha I have had no time to blog as I have been a little busy making some crafty stuff (I managed to make 10 hair clips) I am proud of myself since I only got distracted the once by my rumbling belly calling out for food stuffs hehe so I fed it then decided to play on the xbox then spent the rest of the night there :D

So tonight I have created this wee post just to say howdy and let you know what I have been upto!!

Shall be back on soon enough with lots of rammblings about what else I have been upto :) there is plenty haha

Love you all

Bananananananana and Cherry bread :D

May 10, 2012

Mmmmm I just had to share this nommy recipe with you adorable people ^__^

So here it’s for a surprisingly light and tasty banana and cherry bread or loaf if you wish.

All you need is:-

*250g plain flour

*1 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda

*pinch of salt

*115g butter

*115g dark brown soft sugar

*2 eggs, beaten

*500g mashed over-ripe bananas (mine weren’t over-ripe so I just beat them on ma worktop till they were soft haha)

*200g glazed cherries

******Don’t forget to preheat your oven (oven should be about 180 degrees)******

OK so firstly you need in 1 bowl to sift the flour, bicarb of soda and pinch of salt all together as above

Next in a separate bowl you cream together the butter and sugar as above :)

Beat the eggs (I don’t know why I have added a photos of beaten eggs (the bowl is cute)

Then you need to add eggs along with the mashed bananas and full or halved cherries depending on preference and mix all together, Then add the mix to the flour and stir until everything is moist (don’t stir too much or to fast)

Ooh yeah make sure you have a loaf tin ready (grease it lightly) then add mix to tin, pop some cherries on top with some almonds if you wish for extra tasty goodness :)

Then pop into your oven For about 1hr (poke the bread with a knife and if it comes out clean it’s DONE!)

Then Let the bread cool for a wee while then serve with some delicious spread…mmmm

nom nom nom <3

Hope you lovely people enjoy this little recipe

Much love

Birthday piercings

May 10, 2012

Only one more day to go till I turn 29 :( mauuw I don’t particularly  want to but I guess I have to…

Anyways I was asked what I would like for my birthday and to be honest I’m not actually fussed as long as I get a lie in for it haha :D

But it got me thinking that I might possibly get a new piercing since I can’t afford anymore tattoos right now (boohoo – I have so man y ideas that I wish I could get right this moment) haha forget about owning my own house and car etc just let me have lots of  tattoos haha xD

But yeah since I can’t have any facial piercings for work “/ (I used to have 5 – 1 nose 4 lip) but now I simply have my ears (both sides stretched, my conch and my helix twice)

I used to have more piercings dotted around but in my confused state about who I actually was I removed them all to start a fresh (I so wish I hadn’t of now as it was who I wanted to be yadda yadda you know how it is but I guess if I hadn’t of taking them out I wouldn’t have known they were what I wanted :)

So I think I have decided on a new piercing but with there being so many I want I can’t decide which to have first haha I used to have my tongue pierced and was thinking I could have it done again but I could only find one person that would pierce it for me the first time because of veins “/

Then there is the back of my neck (had) but I did like that :) or my industrial again … I might just get my ear lobe done again so I can have this done…(but only double not triple)

Sooo many choices best make up my mind soon hehe

Cannot wait xD

Peace for now

Plans and things to do :)

May 10, 2012

So the other day or if you wish in my last post I mentioned that I had made myself a little list of things (small things) that I would like to change or do more often that I feel would benefit me in the long run (some of them anyway haha) some of them will just make me feel more relaxed about general life :)

I was reading a girls blog and I found it really interesting :) http://moderngirlsblog.wordpress.com/

She’s also making plans to change and she has set about a 21 day challenge to change 1 thing at a time (she stated a fact that it takes 21 days to change your mindset on any one thing – meaning you do 1 thing for 21 days straight and after it will come naturally) sounds so easy but I can imagine it being alot harder but I am more than willing to give it ago for I am stronger then I think :)

 

But for now these are my little ideas for myself right now :)

*Get settled in our flat (might make me feel better about where I am living)

*Sort out laptops (already done YAY)

*Sort music out on Phone/iPod/Laptop (I’m getting there but I have so much “/)

*Organise blogs and online stuff (Sorted)

*Take lots and lots of photos of things I like

*Craft more

*Bake more

*Eat/cook more healthy

*Dress up more

*Dance more

*Be happier with myself (less angry at the world)

*Find my own style

*Don’t worry about what others think of me so much (I’m too self concious)

*Enjoy life (i.e. do more things that make me smile or laugh)

*Save at least £50 every month (would be easy if there wasn’t so much I find uber pretty haha)

*Buy at least one things I want each month (kinda defeats the above plan In a way but I won’t go overboard ^__^)

*Budget for food and stick to it (we can spend £30 easily on chocolate and crisps etc) always feel rubbish about it too

*Play as hard as I work (which might I add is very hard – that’s probably why I’m stressed so much)

*Smile More than I do just now (which isn’t a great deal tbh)

*Go on holiday at least once a year (doesn’t mean abroad just anywhere away from home even if just for a weekend)

*Be more affectionate to the people I care about (Love you Jack ^__^) I know he reads these hehe

*Spend More time playing with my kitties (they just got a new toy haha – they are totally spoilt)

*Speak to family and friends more

*Blog More than I do without spamming people with my thoughts :P

*Eat less junk food and fizzy drinks (should go with eat more healthy etc etc)

and finally

*Exercise at least once a week (I used to be quite healthy and toned, now not so much I’m just to comfy sitting in my Joggers and watching tv)

I Know most of them are simple but to me they are harder then they seem as I’m very stubborn and set in my ways but I know the only person that can help me change is me :)

This is what will help me :-

Much love to you all
