Holiday's come and gone

Just before Christmas I went out for a Christmas meal with my two fab friends, we went to Frankie and Benny's for a three course meal. We mainly got together so we could see each other before Christmas and exchange presents. I got some amazing presents from my friends, I love my tetley tea mug and I got a 101 things to do before you die book, it is awesome I have already started filling it out and was surprised that I had already completed a few of the tasks. We had an awesome night with great food and a good chance to catch up on all our gossip







I can't believe it Christmas is over with already, it seem to take ages coming however my three days off seem to fly past.
I worked Christmas Eve which doesn't bother me I love seeing people do there last minute shopping and the craziness, it makes the day go so much quicker - plus I get out of all the pre-Christmas arrangements at home like mega house work and prep for Christmas meal.
Christmas morning was great, our living room floor was covered littered with presents and we were all like little children waiting to open them. We were all spoilt rotten I got various items from a fab new bracelet to DVDs, Cd's and smelly's. Our usual routine is get up get dressed and then open our presents, then we clear up and then spend the rest of the day chilling out and watching movies and playing games.

With not many days till the new year I am slowly getting excited because there are a few changes happening. I am starting a new blog called 365 which some of you reading might now what it is however if you don't then check back on the 1st of January to find out :)  At the end of January it is my birthday and I have managed to book the week off I have got a few things planned I am thinking either London Dungeon or Madame Tussuad's. I am also off to the Panto soon I can't wait it has been years since I last went.

Eleven days to go!!!!!!!!!!

Everyday I am getting more and more excited, I have finally finished all my Christmas shopping and have wrapped it all up. I know I am sad but I love wrapping up presents, I cannot wait to hand them out to everyone and see the look on there face, that is the part of Christmas I love the most - giving presents.
The next week is going to be crazy with work and family trying to fit everyone in and see them before the big day.
Part of me is also really excited by next year coming round as my friend and me are looking to move out and get a geek house together. I am really excited as I am now at the age where I should be out in the world making my own way and fending for myself. Plus there maybe a few other new developments in my life but I don't wanna jinx it by saying anything yet so stay tuned.

It's getting chilly
 Now I am wondering where all the snow is but I must say it seems to be getting colder and colder everyday. Above is me and Nicola out and about the other night and omg it was soooo cold.



The other night was a Lunar eclispe however all I could see was this and thought it was beautiful

It's nealy here :)



I am a really bad blogger it has been a while since I last posted but things have been mayhem. I really love this time of year, but I always forget how stressful it can get, I went shopping last Wednesday after work and it was like supermarket sweep a mad rush to get anything you could possibly get your hands on. Luckily I had done most of my shopping and was just getting the last finishing touches but it was really crazy. Now all my shopping is done I can relax and just painfully wait for each day to go past till I can give all my gifts out.

I have my work Christmas meal this weekend and I am really excited I went out and brought a nice new outfit and love my secret Santa gift I managed to find after spending week worrying over what to get.

Last week I went out with my fab friends, Nicola and Jas we went to Frankie and Benny's and had an amazing night it is nice to just get away and have a good catch up and giggle.



So I managed to go to the cinema last week to watch The Thing, now I love the original John Carpenter version with Kurt Russell however I really enjoyed this remake. I am usually a little reserved on remakes as sometimes I think the original are unbeatable but I was surprised how good this really was and a few bits actually had me cringing and jumping in my seat. So if you haven't seen it or you are thinking will it be as good as the original then YES check it out :)
