Righteo.

Tuesday night I GUTTED my room. Hoovered, bleached, dusted & rearranged my shelves. It was looking laaavleeee might I add. I was very happy. I even arranged my notes. How productive of me. It feels good sitting in a tidy room. I am all happy now.

So Wednesday consisted of me getting up all bright and early for my last ever Contract Law lecture, which to be honest wasn't too bad. I think I'll maybe miss that module. It was quite interesting. After that I came home (halls) and got myself looking all presentable so I could go get the train to meet P. Somehow I made it to the train station in time for the express train that took me directly to Glasgow meaning I was there ages before my dearest P. So I went a wee wander round the shops but to be honest if you've seen one dress these days you've seen them all. Then I somehow got a hold of S via f.book and decided to go visit her whilst waiting on P's train coming in. I was walking down George Street when the rain started and when I say started I'm not meaning it was a wee drizzled. It pelted it down. I got soaked right through! Not an inch of me was dry. My hair, knickers and bra were all sticking to me. It was horrid but it was only water and I was still looking semi decent so I suppose I survived. The walk up to the uni halls where S friend was staying however was no something to easily survive. The stairs to even get up to her front door were enough to near kill me, without even thinking that she was on the top floor of her hall. I was exhausted and looking like a drowned rat but it was fine cos I got to have a quick wee catch up with S and meet one of her uni friends. What I can say about that brief encounter of Strathclyde uni area is that there are far too many stairs for my liking it was too loud and I missed my friends the Stirling Uni ducks. I know I complain about them all the time with all their begging and whining but really I do love them and wouldn't have my campus any other way.

I was barely at S friends for 10 mins when I get a phonecall from P who says her train had just puilled into Queen St. So that was another tottering down the street in the rain, in my heels.... without an umbrella because the eejit that I am left it on the bus back in Stirling! Got socked again and by the time I met P I think I was all wrinkly, like I'de been lying in a bath for about an hour. It was freezing but her hug made me forget how wet and cold I was cos I was sooo happy to see her. It had been about 6 months since our last proper outing so we needed a good hug and gab....  and that is what we done over the next SEVEN hours, which woulda been longer if we didn't need to get trains home. Damn they early trains. We trailed the streets for a wee bit looking for somewhere cheap to eat and anded up being stopped by a beautiful sales man whom we talked to for ages before telling him we infact didn't have any money to spend on a pamper day at the spa he was working for. To be truthful if I had had the money he would have had a sale just because of his face! What a beaut.... Muhahahhaaaa. Aye well anyway once we left him we chatted more and wandered more then eventually decided to go to Sloans for some dinner and meet our dear friend rose ;) NOM! Got an amazing catch up before stumbling down the steps of Sloans and into a random street preacher who spoke about Christ and how he was right because he could speak in tongues. Fair do's but he kinda seemed a little brain washed if you ask me, my faith was not faith enough for him. But hey each to their own, right. Paej gave him a nice mouthful though in my defence before saying thank you and escaping after our 15mins of torture. We wandered about merrily and tipsily under the christmas lights until we found a cocktail bar! Not just a cocktail bar but the Blue dog, one I eyed up every time that I have been in Glasgow for the past year and now I'm old enough to drink there! WIN. It was amazing! Chillaxing with my P and catching up about guys, buisness, bitches and our general life plans. It was so scary thinking about how much everything has changed since school. It's too scary actually. Life is moving far too quickly for me to keep up with. It is depressing. We'll survive though. I'm doing my degree and P has started advertising her expertise in beauty therapy and has a good few homers booked. We'll get there. I know it'll all be fine in the end.

In the Blue Dog we were the only ones in the bar so we got the full attention of the once again yummy waiter, he made us up a cocktail with eggwhite in it and it was lovely! Gotta love an amaretto sour! Then  I had a strawberry field and a blue dog and something else! They were all beauts. I love cocktails but love P more :D Such a good night. We will be doing it again very soon, migh just skip dinner this time and eat more cocktails instead. I think I'll take Mammy there soon as a good treat. We will drink Manhattans and Cosmopolitans or Dirty Martinis, ahhhh I can see it now :D

So after a chatting for an age me and P left the famous Blue Dog and got a chippy before getting on separate trains. Best day I have had in a good while. Can't wait till our next day.


Today wasn't too bad either. A Delict lecture and work.... and I got my first wage slip. I am happy. Very happy :) Think I might cut up my card though so I stop spending and it accumulates, that would be nice. I don't think I really need food that much..... I have pasta their anyways. 

Well that sums up my past week. Got a seminar in 9 and a half hours then another cheeky wee shift at work.... MORE MONEY! YAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYYYY!

That had to be said. For the time being I'd best get some sleep. New me I think. I'm being tidy, productive organised and I'm sleeping. Wow. Change for the better I think. Well anyway as I said I'm off to bed for some sleep so nightynight blogface! xxx

Hello my bloggy friend.

Today has been ever so productive. Tutorial work done and discussed. Spent a couple of hours up at the castle and then had some of the extra creamy hot chocolate as a wee well deserved reward. I've been back at halls for three hours now and so far I haven't done too much. I ate some scrambled egg, cleaned all the dirty dishes that were lying about my room, tidied up my room a little bit and watched one episode of Sex and the City, what brilliant ability to procrastinate I have. Now I'm sitting in my room feeling all sorry for myself and slightly homesick. I just wanna curl up and cry and to be very honest I can't even begin to explain why, because really, even I don't even know. Wanted to drown my sorrows with the  girls but they're not up for it so I've decided to turn all my negative energy into something more positive. Or at least I hope I will. I'm going to tidy up everything; hoover, dust, the works then lay out my study stuff for tomorrow and make sure everything is ready for P coming over on Wednesday. That will be a good escape! I cannot wait for her chat and hugs and general amazing self, our catch ups are always the best. With any luck her visit and words of wisdom will be what pull me out of this emotional rut that I am in. P will sort it, somehow she does have that ability. She is one hell of a friend.

My day hasn't been that exciting I don't know what else to write. Maybe I'll just stop there and put an end to my procrastination. Yup. That is thee plan.

Goodnight blogface.

Wow Prince

I'm not your lover, I'm not your friend, I am something that you'll never comprehend. Gosh I really do love Prince! What a musical genius! <3 I adore him!

Sunday 20th of November 2011

I've just ate a ready meal that went out of date yesterday. Acht well, fingers crossed it won't be too detrimental to my health. A day won't make too much difference, will it? 

Oh well we'll see. 

It's Sunday night. I've been back from work two hours. Made myself an out of date ready meal and watched a few episodes of my latest addiction; Sex and the City. It got me thinking about relationships and what I think I've finally decided is that I am more than happy with my single life. I have my friends at uni, work and home. All that comes with relationships is stress and hassle. Yeah it can be nice but why is there such emphasis laid on being in one. I love my single and free life. There is less heartache that way and to be honest after the year I've had I honestly don't think that I could handle any more. Never again, that's all I'm saying....

Anywhoooo I've had a lovely wee weekend. Jumped on the train to Glasgow on Friday in order to make it home for CP's birthday. It was a really really good night. I miss everyone so much but at the same time certain wee things made me realise how happy I am to be living through in Stirling. It just wasn't the same. Everything and everyone has changed. Or maybe it's me. Who knows? All I know is that I felt somewhat out of place. Yeah I danced and I drank but it wasn't like before. I don't think things will go back to the way it was when we were all at whitac. I'm very sad when I think about it but once again glad because well, I've escaped it all. West Lothian might be my home and a place that will always be close to my heart but I'm happy to have escaped it. I'm meant to get away from there and better myself in ways that cannot be fulfilled by what my home has to offer...... I don't even know what it is that I am saying so instead I think I'm gonna move swiftly on.

 

Work was good, I got a 600 number meaning alot more responsibilities. I feel clever. I also got my discount card. Very happy Christina liokes! Woo!

Think I'm going to tidy up and do some tutorial work. It will be good. My room will be tidy and next week will be goood. Okay.
Nightynight blogface <3 

So I left you all off at Prom. The amazing night that was.
So much time has passed since then. So many things have changed. People, circumstance, the season, life seems to be flying by and I'm just not able to stop it...

This Summer was possibly the best summer of my life. I spent a lot of time with my Mammy and the rest of the family and also got to spend my weekends in the Crofty or Chalmers generally having the time of my life with all the people who I love lots, my friends. So many occasions. Parties, birthdays and obviously TITP. We all got so close that I sit now in a uni dorm thinking how much I miss it all! Gosh. What the heck happened to us? We all got the grades through in the summer then celebrated and went of to college, university or work. The life we enjoyed then seems so very distant now and being honest I really miss it.

Uni is good though. The people are lovely, the course is tough but I cope because my room is so homely. I just wonder how it is that I cope without my Mum and Dad everyday. Georges stories of Whitac and Margaret-Anne's never ending cuteness! I miss them the most. Well them and me and mothers constant watching of One Tree Hill. It is fair to say that for the month or so before I got to Stirling we sat up for all hours watching One Tree Hill. Loved it.

Wow. Here I am being typical me and ranting away as per usual when I haven't even caught you up on where I am even writing from and the major changes that have happened in my life to force me into such nostalgia! Well for starters as I'm sure you have gathered I am not still living at home with the family, instead I am in halls at Stirling University. I'm there studying the llb in Law. It's not bad, tricky but is so interesting and will defo be worth it if I keep my ass in gear. I really do love it. I am glad that this is what I am doing with my life.  

Right Im offskies. Think I might start blogging again soon. I do love it. Lets me vent you see and alllows me to flick back through my memories as if they were recorded in a book. I think blogging is almost as amazing as photos..... Almost.
Bye beauts <3
