Whats up and whats down

So today has been a glorious sunny day and it does make a change for the sun to be constantly shining as it has done over the last 3 or 4 days. Have heard the summer is going to be even better this year which is great, as I think Ill be spending alot of time here this year!

So decided to try this as I've seen it on other blogs and thought its was cool so:

Whats Hot:

* The weather being so lovely and sunny

* Portugal (hen do) being just 10 days away!!!! SO excited! Have ordered my currency and have just got to get a few other bits and pieces this saturday

* Getting my hair highlighted this saturday - am fed up with my almost light brown coloured hair, and am going to up the blonde with no dark put in at all! Cant wait, think I look so : ( the darker my hair colour

* My magic tan and wax next tuesday (ok wax isnt something to look forward to i know but i like to feel neat and tidy - freak that I am!!) Just hope the Magic tan booth doesn't make me end up looking like Ross in that episode of friends, ha, oh dear.

* Alice in Wonderland anything. Am obsessed with the book, and this amazing website by a wonderful UK jewellry designer called Hoolala: http://www.hoolala.co.uk/charmnecklace3.htm
Her stuff is amazing and so unique - really want the alice charm necklace - but may have to wait a while as its not cheap, but its oh so unique!

* My fab Madonna Like a Virgin t shirt from Junk Food: http://www.sweetnsourtees.com/junkfoodmadonnavirgintourgirlyt-shirt.aspx

I was accidentley trying to work out the price in total on this US website sweet n sour tees when i accidently pressed buy now and oops the transaction went through!! Oh well. And typical as I go and buy it it becomes available at a UK online retailer Truffle Shuffle when i couldnt find it anywhere over here before! But I actually have managed to save money by buying it from the us as it only cost £29 including shipping when its £30 on truffle shuffle not including delivery! So method to my crazy typing madness this morning. Of course I'll be wearing it on 4th July at the O2 when me and Rachel see the Queen in action on the dance floor - cannot wait!

Whats Not:

* My hideous hire car - a Citroen C1 or something random like that - its basically like a Toyota Aygo, i.e rubbish. You put it in 1st and your sat at the traffic lights, roundabout, junction whatever. When its all clear/red, you try and get going but all the bloody engine does is rev and go at a snails pace. Very embarressing (as if not having air con, central locking, electic windows, sun roof, car lighter to play my ipod through was bad enough!) and also very irritating when you want to go some place. Rubbish Rubbish! Thank god my car (and its dents bless its little heart) will be fixed by thursday.

* Online dating. Consistently rubbish and a waste of money. The guys I like and wink at/email etc dont wink back or email me! Go figure! You've seen my photo! (lol ok slightly narssicistic of me to say that but i know what i look like lol) all i get is the dross and people who look nice but like in france. Uh huh, yeah like a relationship is going to happen like that. Its not sleepless in seattle! Good god. I do give in with it I really do. I guess you have to be in it to win it, but I also think if you go looking for it you don't find it and to be honest I'm pretty happy as I am, my myself and I. If someone comes allong, great, if someone doesnt, oh well, I'm still going to have a stellar time and not get myself down about it. Life is for living and I intend to do that!!

* Being pale. Ugh I bemoan having to wait for a tan! I am not going to use any of my fake tan products until after my magic tan next tuesday. Theres no point as it will come off in bits on my skin and look all patchy when they apply my new golden gleam. So best to start on a blank canvas. Will just be exfoliating this week. I will also be pretending pale is interesting (whoever said that obviously hadn't discovered the joys of fake tan and was obviously ginger) and pretending im like Madonna who never tans (but personally could do with a bit of colour on those biceps)

* No air con at work, being all sticky and sweaty (and not in a good way) and just feeling ugh at work. Thank god the lady I'm working for is a sweatheart and never has a go at my lack of scholastic apitude.

* Not yet looking like a svelt like stick insect. Ok slightly exagerating the stick insect part. A normal size 12 will do, a la Holly Willoughby (although personally i think shes selling herself short and shes more of a uk size 10 to me). Well i know it will take time i just want results now. But hey ho, better to keep it off longer if it takes time.

* Laurens last ever Hills! I just finished watching the last ever Hills and it was quite emotional to see her go. I've loved the Hills ever since it started 3 odd years ago. I loved her in Laguna Beach and followed her in the Hills with relish. It just wont be the same without her, even though it is a pretty vacant thing to watch, thats why I liked it. But I still have the box sets and will continue to watch Lauren go forward with her career (humm?! failed fashion designer, now writer? time will tell what she puts her hand to next) and I'm sure she will always inspire me with her looks and style.
