Island life!!

Ok, so I'm typing this while I'm travelling on a bus on my way home! I missed the earlier bus by about 10 seconds, and I couldn't be bothered to run across the park to the next stop!
So I've seen a few things that to me, is standard on this island.
1. Most here are chavs, this = assholes with nothing to do!
2. Everyone likes arguing with the bus drivers!
3. Some people shouldn't own dogs!
4. Wear sensible clothes dear, its your own fault your shivering!
5. You don't look 18, so smoking, suits you then!
There are probably a few more things that I would like to moan about but guess I'll leave that to another day!
Well when I get home I've got a big pile of laundry to do, so that aught to be fun! ttfn!

Chinese New Year!

Well, Happy Chinese New Year! It was on Monday 23^rd January this year! And now we are in the year of the DRAGON! I’m a dragon so it should be an all right year hopefully!

An update of the week so far, well last Friday I was meant to have my 1 – 2 – 1 meeting with my manager however it was cancelled at the last minute! I don’t have a clue why, but oh well I guess there’s just not enough time for them to tell me how rubbish I am!

My eye test was quite interesting! I found out that I’m slightly worse that I was 6 years ago! I got advised that I should have glasses for computers, but not for computers! That’s what I was advised! So who knows! Oh and if I was driving I should wear them! Oh and my left eye is still worse than my right! Nothing has changed there then!

Well I don’t think I’m going to be driving anytime soon as 1, I don’t have a car (a previous post) and 2, I don’t have access to any cars!

In other random news;

Two of my friends just got engaged! Blooming big shock if you ask me! So out of the blue! But its good and happy days!

Me and a couple of friends have decided randomly that we might go to Brighton for a day out, don’t know why. Random? Yes! But it’s a day out, and its to somewhere none of us have been to!

Well other than that not much has happened this week! I’m still going to try and survive on student living, but its not going too well at the moment!

So I shall post again shortly, however it might just be another boring post like this!

Love and stuff M x

More ramblings...

Well today, (Monday) I did try to book my eye test! I mean I printed of the piece of paper that had the number to call, and also asked my manager for the centers cost number! (The money dept.).

However when I tried to call the “eye care“ dept., just after 4pm they were closed. CLOSED! Guess that I will have to try again tomorrow during lunch when hopefully they will be open! Otherwise I’ve got a bit more waiting to do!

I’ve also started watching The Big Bang Theory after numerous people have mentioned that its funny! So far I think it’s alright! Maybe sometimes a bit too nerdy but I guess that’s the point of the show!

Well I have since managed to get hold of the eye care dept., and they are now sending me out a form that I have to fill in etc. and then, hopefully an eye test to say that I’m not blind!

This week has been good so far, because I had a couple of days off of during this week, and on one of those days I went to the building society to have a review of my accounts. I ended up with a new account, and a credit card. On the credit card they offered me a stupid limit! (Massive for me!) And I asked them to reduce it. Upon confirming the limit I wanted, she asked me was I sure, with a confused look on her face! Guess she was a bit unhappy that I reduced the limit! But I’m happy with what I was offered.

Well it’s back to work for the rest of the week, and I’ve also got my 1-2-1 meeting with my manager tomorrow! Yikes! Lets hope its all happy and good news!

Ciao M.

I'm Helpful and Friendly!

Ok,

So it’s been a whole week since my last post! YES a whole week! I’ve now decided to try and blog at least once week on here! So let the challenge commence! (Want to make a bet?)

Well during this week not much has happened, but however I did receive one/two piece(s) of interesting news. I found out that I’m going to be offered a permanent contract where I work! (Subject to T&C and performance). And also on some survey that the company did, apparently I scored 10/10 for helpfulness and friendliness. Guess I’m helpful and friendly, who would have guessed eh!

Since about the 3^rd I’ve practically had no money to spend. My money was on the fridge! Yes on the fridge. In note form. Waiting to be returned. To me! But the good thing that this has caused was that I ate pretty much all the food that was in my freezer, and fridge, and most of the cupboard!

Hopefully this next week will be good, it is payday on Wednesday so it should be good! Means I will have funds to spend again! One of the first things that I’m going to need to do is re-stock the fridge and freezer!

Oh I’ve decided that I must try to eat more healthily! (Fruit and veg and stuff!) I don’t know why, but it’s probably because I’m not doing as much sport as I used to be! One more little thing I’ve got to try to sort out is arranging an appointment for an eye test!

Well much love and let’s see if I post next week!

Lack there of!

Well I guess that I will start with “geezzzz!!! Its been a while since I last wrote anything in this blog!”

Ok now that is sorted let’s get down to what has happened since I last wrote in my blog! So I’m going to need to sit down and scratch my head for a bit as it does seem like a very long time ago!

Well I got myself a nice new shiny camera and it takes excellent photos! Too bad there’s an idiot operating the thing! I’ve taken a few photos with it! But still need to use it more to actually make the camera super-duper awesome! (Photos)

During September I turned ancient! And didn’t really do anything on my b’day, and I guess I didn’t buy myself anything as I was skint from buying the camera!

However a couple of weeks later I did go and visit my friends in London, which was nice and took lots of photos, and also deleted lots of photos!!

And some time in this month I got told to try too book some time off at the end of November to the start of December as “we” were to go to HK. Too bad for me I had to work!

Thus brings the month of November! Truth be told, nothing interesting happened in this month! Mostly I “placed” my order for my laptop when my mum and bro were going to be in HK. And thus I drove them to and from the airport!

I got to say that during this period, this was one of the most expensive 3 weeks because of the FERRY!! And buses!! Just because of some stupid fish! (Got told off for not cleaning the tank while mum and bro were away)

And in December I received my new laptop, which was my Christmas present!! (I was going to give the money for my mum to get it for me but as I wasn’t going she thought she’d get that for me) and with that I finished my duties as a taxi driver!

At one stage I did think I got a speeding ticket from one of those mobile speed cameras in a van, however its been quite a while and nothing has turned up in the post! So fingers crossed, all is good!

And now the festive period, wow! How un-wintery it felt! The weather went mild and everything! Compared to a couple weeks before when it was freezing! And I do know about that because I had to go and purchase a lovely new duvet because my old one made me freeze during the night!

There are things about this time of year, lots of random novelty items are on sale, same old songs return to the radio and prices are “slashed” so everything seems “cheap”

And the things I hate, wrapping, mess, too much family time (same things get mentioned year in year out!) and it gets boring!

So as usual it’s a win-lose situation!

Well to finish, another Christmas and Year has passed! Lets hope as usual that the following year will be better!! So…..

Few things to do:

Look for a better job! Find an actual career direction! Get a car or a bike!!

Or….

Go back to the simple life and be boring!!!

And…

Maybe I should stop blogging, not much ever happens on here!

Toodles!!
