Oh it's so beautiful outside, it won't stop snowing :) it's getting heavier & heavier as I type, I love it :)
Last week was a bit of a nightmare. On Wednesday I had to be in the office for 07:30am...... uuuuuuuggggghhh! I made it though! Then I was in for a long, tough day at work. Went to sleep about 11:30pm, and was woken at 12:30am but the people downstairs having a party :( then I was up til 5am because of them! They didn't quieten down til we got the police out. They are generally noisy & annoying but this was just taking the piss. Bf went down to see them the next day and they said they were sorry, didn't realise they were so loud, blah blah blah. I was away most of the weekend but last night one of them came to the door to say that they had people over (10 people) and that they were meant to leave yesterday morning, but because of the snow their flight back to Poland was cancelled and so they are here for another week. I don't believe there ever was a flight they were meant to catch and I suspect that they all here looking for work. I don't know about in other parts of the country, but in Edinburgh, when you have Polish people in a flat, there always seems to be about 10-12 of them in 1 or 2 bedroomed flats. Well I hope they all get jobs and move out or go back to Poland soon coz they are doing my nut in.
So anyway I was in a terrible mood all of Thursday because of lack of sleep, and another tough day at work.
Friday was great. I worked in Glasgow, I started late, met my friend for lunch, bought new nail varnish... managed to paint my nails in work when it got quiet, shhhhhhh! After work I met my friends in the pub and had a nice night :) stayed in Glasgow all weekend. On Saturday I had a lie in then spent some time with my mum & dad. My mum has an amazing jewellery collection and managed to get her to part with some of for me ;) then I went Christmas shopping (Hugo Boss for bf and Molton Brown for mum & dad), and met my friends in the pub. Only stayed out for 2 or 3 drinks. They were having an all-dayer and I just wasn't in the mood. Went home, had a nice bath and watched X Factor. Yesterday I stayed in bed most of the day then went to my aunt Ann's for her birthday tea.
The only bad thing about the weekend was that I developed the cold from hell :( it started on Saturday night, and it was the reason I stayed in bed most of Sunday. I was meant to be going to see Frankie Boyle last night in Glasgow with my friend, then getting the last train back to Edinburgh, but I felt too ill and so I cancelled. I got the train back to Edinburgh and my lovely friend Steven came and picked me up at Waverley and dropped me off at my flat :) I am a 15/20 min walk from the station, but it was too dodgy to walk it and the taxi queue was massive, and also I was dying with the cold by that point so he was a total life saver.
Me & bf were meant to be going to the cinema & stuff today but I just don't feel up to it :( I feel bad coz bf was really looking forward to it :( I was too though. We are meant to be off today but he has had to nip in to work for a while and I have asked him to come back with medicine & hankies for my cold!
Hope you are all enjoying the snow! :) xx
I had a great time on Saturday. My friend Steve came and picked me up and we drove off. I was a tiny bit worried because Steven is lovely but he can be very quiet at times and it feels a bit awkward, but I needn't have worried! He was great company on Saturday and we talked and laughed all day. We drove to The Fort which is a big kind of outdoor shopping centre/retail park in Edinburgh, and went to a couple of shops there. I was on a mission to get all 4 different shades of Nails Inc polish free with Glamour magazine and I was successful! I got 3 of them in Superdrug & the last one in Boots :) we then nipped to Ikea where we walked round for a while and spent ages smelling all the candles. We both came out with a bag full of them! After that we took a short drive to a lovely little pub called The Stables which was a proper old fashioned pub with a coal fire and we had lunch there. We drove back in to town after that and went round Sainsbury's, before he dropped me off home :)
After I got home me & bf went out to get Christmas decorations! :) we got everything we wanted. We came home to watch X Factor but didn't have a great night because the guy upstairs decided to have a party with a million people at it and blast his music :( hate hate hate hate.
On Sunday I got up early and went to a Spin class. I used to do them all the time when I was younger but gave them up years ago. It was tough but I really enjoyed myself and I'm looking forward to going to my next one. After that I met my friend Sam and we went for lunch, then viewed a couple of gyms in Edinburgh. I think will be joining Factory Gym, but we are trying to get a discount on the joining fee before we do it! xx
Hi, happy Saturday :)
I hope you've had a good week, mine's been pretty good.
I had a training course Monday & Tuesday, which was alright, not the best course I've been on but it was kinda fun and I met some nice people. Aaaaand some "interesting" people. I got particularly well with this one guy, and I noticed the other day that we are on another course together in November! :)
Back to work on Wednesday. It was ok, then Thursday was really busy. Yesterday was ok at work but I had to stay kinda late. I got my mid-year review as well. I got a good mark but I really hate reviews. They make me all nervous. I just hate the idea of sitting in a room while someone tells you how good or bad you are. I just want to get on with my work.
Last night I went to a friend's flat for a while for a little drink then I just came home. It wasn't a late one.
Boyfriend has been very cute this week :) <3 he phoned me from work on Thursday evening saying he was leaving to go to the shop to buy something for dinner and I said I would meet him and go the walk with him. So I met him and he said he wanted to go to Tesco, but he said not the usual Tesco we go to, he wanted to go to "the other one, up the hill". "Is there another one up there?" I asked. "Yes." he said. So I said ok and we started walking. He stopped outside a nice restaurant and said "There's Tesco there!" He was actually surprising me by taking me out for dinner :) awwwww! Luckily I hadn't thought "Oh, we're only going to Tesco" and dressed like a tramp ha ha, I actually looked ok to be in the restaurant :)
Then, we were in bed the other night and just before midnight, he got up and said "Oh, I just have to go and switch my computer off, I've been downloading anti-virus stuff". He was away for quite a while but I wasn't bothered, I ended up falling asleep! But he lied! It was nothing to do with anti-virus stuff, guess what he was doing? Booking tickets for us to go and see Harry Potter on the day it's released! He doesn't even like Harry Potter he just knows how much I do! So sweet! :)
Staying in tonight and watching the X Factor, no plans for tomorrow so far :) xx
Today... I had to get the bus to the hospital to hand my 24 hour heart monitor back in. I quite like the little bus journey. I work between 3 different offices in Edinburgh and 2 of them are really close to my flat so I just walk, and the other is a short bus journey away. I liked being on the bus going in a different direction and relaxing on the bus a little longer. So now I just have to sit tight and wait on the results.
As I was walking down the road to work, I had a call from my manager, asking if I had forwarded on a certain really important email on Friday.... which I had not :-/ he was like "WHY?" he wasn't too bad about it actually but I felt like an idiot because it was such a stupid mistake. Oooops.
I was supposed to go round and see my friend's new flat tonight but I reeeeeally couldn't be bothered :-/ so now I'm watching the X Factor from last night and I'm sorry but I really don't understand Cheryl's choices. HOW could she of put Katie through? And not Gamu? Hmmmm.... xx
