Week Ending 18th September 2011

So my week began and ended in the usual way, which is a bit of a let down.

Monday: I cursed British society and the necessity of working (9-5, Monday-Friday) for a living and not being born to wealth/the Windsors.

Tuesday - Wednesday: Bleugh.

Thursday: Good times, the moment I had been waiting for arrived...it was time for my 9 weekly hair cut/dye job. It had gotten to the point where I was counting down the days and then hours until I got my trusty full fringe cut back in, as I was sick of the sight of my forehead and quickly developing wrinkles.

As you well know my dearest Brannen, I love a good fringe. I feel it instantly makes me look more 'trendy' and youthful. However, I also fear that in a few weeks I will get back in the same pattern. I will get envious of those with fringeless faces/effortless natural style and pledge to grow it out and so on and so fourth.

I attach a photo of my fringe for your viewing pleasure and ease of reference (taken 16/09/11):


Friday: Belly aches all day and then Zaks for dinner (courtesy of a 2 for 1 voucher). Ryan Related came round in the evening annnnnd....my sofa broke!!! FML.

Today's Saturday and this morning I went to the gym. I ran 10K and it was a struggle from the outset which made it even harder when I received criticisms on my technique (as per our texts). I'd like to take this moment to give a a shout out to 'Limp Biskit', as I believe they may have helped me reach my desired distance. I recently decided that a cheesy rock workout play list was the way forward and I have discovered that it works most effectively, with 'Rollin' and 'My Way' being exceptionally energising. I will keep you up-to-date with future effective workout songs should you find this beneficial?

I was supposed to go to the city today but couldn't be arsed. I'm going to sit on my arse on the side of the sofa that isn't broken, watch shit I sky+ in the week and cuddle the pug.

I really enjoyed your last Blog so I will take some inspiration from you and list a few items I am enjoying and wanting.


Enjoying:
 TV: BBC's 'The Body Farm'.

I made no secret that the loss of 'Waking the Dead' left a hole in my heart but thankfully the BBC took the initiative of creating a spin-off choosing to concentrate on WTD's most boring character. But they have the last laugh because I actually enjoyed it and I still want to be a forensic scientist (and work with sexy posh Harry from ‘Silent Witness’).

 I’ve been loving nail varnishes at the moment, in fact I read this interesting article on the Daily Mail yesterday lunch time, I recommend a read as I very much agree with the content.
I find that I am buying more cosmetics (particularly bright nail varnishes) as a means of treating myself these days.

 My faves of the moment are:

 Barry M’s ‘Pink Flamingo’ and No.7’s ‘Mojo’, a great mat shade of pink and a pleasant shade of reflective orange respectively.
 
Things I want:

A high waisted black skirt for work, a chunky silver ring (to usher in my wearing of silver) and this t-shirt:


Topshop Cross Tee by Realitee. It's Rock n' Roll.

I don't want this Pug vest from Topshop:
  ...because my mummy bought it for me as a surprise last week!!! (strange and surprising)

There are actually loads of things I want but I’ll keep it brief as not to bore you. I too want one of those Clinique chubby balms (by the way).

 OK, so that’s pretty much it for today. I’d like to say I enjoyed writing this but I didn’t really, BUT I do enjoy keeping in touch and love reading your Blogs so this is a good compromise.

I hope you enjoyed this Blog and welcome any feedback and suggestions to improve.

Love and Pugs!

You're so lucky. You're going to get a new one of these at the end of every week. <3 <3

  1. I love the fringe, you're right it makes you look younger and adds an edge to your mid-length. I need something to cover up the deep wrinkles in my forehead. I've got a Garnier product to try out for wrinkles so I'll do some photos for next week to see if there's any difference when I use it.

    The work out songs will be really useful as from tomorrow I'm hitting the gym and exercise again and I will need the motivation.

    How on earth did Ryan break your sofa?

    I liked the nail colour you had in the book picture is that Mojo?

    Love the blog, no need to improve.


    P.S That t-shirt is a must have. The pug vest not so much.

  2. You haven't got deep set wrinkles as you've got a dainty brow not a heavy ape one like me.

    Ryan broke my sofa as he's a great lump. He sat on it and it came away at the side. In fairness it was creaking for a while (also brought on by him when he lived here as I recall) but his great weight was the straw that broke the sofa's back. DFS are 'apparently' coming Wednesday. I'll believe that when I see it.

    That book colour was indeed Mojo, check it out next time you get a boots £5 voucher. They're giving them away like hot cakes at the moment.
    It's hard blogging nail varnish colours with a shitty iPhone camera though :(

    I can't afford T-Shirt :(.

    Look forward to your blog.
