This is just a REALLY quick post ..... So much going on right now with work & I'm going on a fantastic learning curve that I want to share with you all (because I know how much you all really love reading all this shizzle!)
One thing is, my blogs might become slightly more frequent, and include various subjects, photos & content and I will of course be telling you all about the things I'm learning about workwise ..... For once I feel quite excited about the work subject, even though I struggle as most do a lot of the time with motivation .... but from a little bit of work that I've been doing on my own I've got a taste for all things web based & seeing results and the thought of learning new tricks is making me want to work harder ......
So thats what I'm going to do ...... I want to drive more traffic to my blog too, so i'm thinking of leaving blogspot and transferring over to Wordpress - but for now, I'm gonna stay put where I am and see how I get on! So if you like what I have to say and you have a gmail account then I'd love to see my followers grow :-)
I've got so many funny things to tell you all .... Gonna write a wicked blog of my escapades tomorrow, but for now ...... HOW HOT IS GARY BARLOW ON X-FACTOR!!!!! Have to say, I'm LOVING the new line up!
Peace, Love and all that Vajazzle

Be Careful What You Wish For
Good Evening ....... in the wake of the last week and everything thats happened lately you kinda would be forgiven for asking the question is anything actually 'good' right now?
I've got a few things i want to touch on tonight, but lets just start on the most obvious one - perhaps a political subject, these are my opinions and i'm not saying they are right but its just the things that have been going through my head!
Wow is all i can say! Its been a whirlwind hasn't it ...... in the last week what has happened to 'Great' Britain. I can't say I'm surprised, and in all honesty i'm not going to say I'm ashamed to be English / British or whatever, because for the most part us British citizens are actually pretty decent folk! It's just a shame that the future of our country in the shape of these youths is looking bleak - and its certainly making me think twice about whether or not I want to bring kids into this world.
The question is - do I feel sorry for all these kids that have been so badly 'let down by the government and the system'
And my initial reaction is NO ..... It is not their god given right to have possessions that people like me (and those of you reading this) work long and hard to save up and buy. And nor is it right for them to think the government are ever going to be taught a lesson by a bunch of uneducated (whether thats their fault or not) youths. If they think they have no opportunity and future, surely the same rules apply to the thousands of people who have lost their jobs to redundancy no?! You know those people who can't afford to pay for their mortgages and have family holidays et all?! The things they WORK hard for and pay taxes on gone within an instant ...... Do you see them torching down businesses and destroying homes and lives - its the same Government who's done this to everyone right!?!?
On the otherside of it i kinda do feel bad for these kids, who have been absymally let down by their parents, now I'm sorry but for anyone that says these kids are out of control and they do what they like is rubbish. My parents had complete control of me, they put the fear of god into me ..... They taught me that when you play by the rules you have a good life and lots of good things happen, break the rules then you lose out until you understand the magnitude of your actions. These days kids seem to rule the roost and not the other way round . If I ever took anything that wasn't mine or did anything to hurt another person then my parents would of dragged me home and probably rang the police themselves! And let me tell you my parents were'nt strict, i had relatively free reign to go out, see my friends - the normal things you would expect but i knew where the line was and i didn't cross it (well maybe once or twice!)
Its not fair to blame a lack of education / over crowding or whatever else is being moaned at, the fact is if you want to change your life you have the power to do it - thats something we all are in charge of. If theres 10 kids or 30 kids in a class, if you want to pay attention and do well you will do. In the same respect that if you want to get a job to pay your taxes and earn the right to have a voice then you get one. There are jobs there if you really want to get one. The trouble now is that everyone expects everything with minimal effort put in to obtain it.
Whilst the looting and the rioting has gone on, foolishly these kids think that they've won and its 'payback' and 'getting their taxes back' All they've done is damaged their future and mine that little bit more because of their huge lack of understanding. The consequences of the last week in this country will have a huge impact on our already almost broken economy - the same economy that the government (whoever was in power) has taken into a recession ...... So now everything is going to cost that little bit more, and people will be spending that little bit less - if only they could see past the initial gain and see they've just made things 100 times worse for themselves, But thats the trouble when you act on impulse - your vision is rose-tinted
I also don't think that punishing these people with prison is going to work. It won't teach them the respect and discipline they are so desperately missing in life and badly need. Personally, I think some sort of armed forces work for a set period of time will be the thing to change these kids lives ..... Give them some purpose, teach them valuable life lessons and make a difference doing some good. You never know they might come back better people for it.
Anyways, moving on ..... I've been on a detox for 7 whole days i've been right good too, i've lost a few inches and 4lbs ..... I've for 7 weeks to Ibiza and i'm hoping another 10lbs off and few more inches! My mind is feeling better and i am obsessedddddd with this app on my phone 'myfitnesspal' its really helping me .... watching what i'm eating, monitoring it, cos i am actually pretty shit at food diaries and my PT is quite pleased with what im eating / drinking and obviously i've been working out a bit harder too ..... I can honestly say i've never felt so positive about something as i have towards this ibiza detox! My diet hasn't actually been that bad this year - apart from Carbicide Sundays but i literally am in this weird i'm losing 14lbs in 8 weeks zone and i'm not getting out of it. It feels so good to have motivation and purpose for doing something again.
There's a pair of bad boy jeans i NEED in my life from topshop and as a treat i'm getting them because i deserve them and they will look amazing on me in about 3 weeks time ..... (they look 'alright' now cos tried them on the other day)
Quite a lot of other not so good, weird shit going on, but in all honesty i dont really want to go into detail as yet, because if anything I'm still in 'observation' mode and when the time's right to tell you the good, the bad and the ugly i will do, but that time isn't quite now!
I've learned that i am a VERY observant person who has a level of calm inside of me i didn't think i had - both at work and personally ..... Some things in life are a test and i refuse to let these tests beat me, it really is that simple. Sometimes - very much like with that Vicky girl I knew, people just hang themselves without you even needing to do a thing, so if theres someone at work that grates on you, or just is quite a nasty person, you might not even need to do a thing except be patient, work hard, impress your bosses and leave the other shit to 'that' person - eventually everything comes out in the wash! Just don't be the one standing there with dirty hands ...... - thats just a little piece of advice from moi! Who's seen a lot, fucked up a lot and learned a lot on the way for the better i might add also!
Boywatch is simple ..... The one i want i can have just not how i want ...... which makes me sad kinda - but in the grand plan i'm not dwelling because IF it was meant to be then it would .... so there must be something better to happen. Few dates with a 'nice' local boy - not really earth shattering but is kinda a grower and i can't say i dislike him cos i don't i have fun but is there a spark ..... hmmmmmn ask me again in a few more dates time, then theres one i wish i could want ..... but i don't, and i wish i could change how i see / feel ! fuminggggg ........ Then theres the ones i don't even know about yet waiting in the wings !!!!
I want you all to look at this website
www.helpharryhelpothers.com
Its important, and follow @harrymoseley on twitter -
This 11 year old hero has well and truely captured my heart. He's in ICU right now as i type this 48 hours after a very big operation to remove what was an inoperable tumour on his brain. This kid is everything that is GOOD about this country - despite having this since 2007 he has been going to school, and working hard raising over £500k for cancer research in the hope that one day kids like him wont have to suffer at the hands of brain cancer ever again. You can donate £2 and Harry will make you a bracelet made of love, spreading his message - help harry help others ..... I can't wait to get mine, even though it may take a while to come cos he's quite poorly at the moment. The boy has a beautful soul and is seriously an angel sent from god - doing amazing things and caring about others even though he's fighting constantly his own battle.
His mum has been tweeting whilst he's been asleep, and well all I can hope is that when he wakes up he can SEE his family - because thats a major concern right now that this beautiful little lad might not be able to anymore.
If there is any justice in this world then the Doc's will have got rid of the majority of his tumour and he will be able to open his eyes to the world again and carry on his fantastic charity work for many many years to come.
Give yourself 10 mins to read about him through twitter and on his website .... it will melt your heart xx
Buzzing about Ibiza closings the crew is getting bigger! Hotel takeover is happening seriously! so i'm staying in like a good clair, working hard at work, proving my worth to my Dad in the hope that when this recession is over and Print is alive again (due to me getting loads and loads of work in) he doubles my salary, and then some!!! now that would be nice wouldn't it?! poxy government letting me down, aint had a payrise in 3 years!!! should i go vent my anger by looting down wanstead high st?!?! Course not silly ..... my parents did right by me and taught me thats now how we roll!
Enjoy your weekends, i'll write again soon
Love
Me! x

Carbicide
Ok so i might aswell admit it ...... over the last 24 hours i've committed CARBICIDE and i am REALLY pissed off at myself about it.
I hope you all know what carbicide is?! If not here's my definition .... EATING EVERY BAD CARB WITHIN REACH ......
My sundays used to be filled with sunday partying and 29 tequilas and 98 strawberry ciders, and now well i eat carbs ..... ok not every sunday, and not all carbs are bad for you, but i'm feeling really annoyed at myself for yesterdays boredom performance of Carbicide ......
I ate Couscous, 2 Croissants smothered in Jam and a quorn sausage sandwich ...... oh and a cookies and cream cupcake ..... FAT PERSON IS THAT YAAAAAOU?! haha it was yesterday!
Now anyone who knows me or reads these pointlessish blogs of mine knows that i've been on a bit of a crusade this year trying to learn about food and make myself healthy in mind and body - which is slowly starting to work - my mind is defo healthier and i actually am early for work these days, still not quite there on the body - but rome wasn't built in a day ......... sorry i digress here i need to get back to the point i'm trying to make .......
So due to the fact i was scoffing all the bad carbs in the world, infact made me the worlds most lethargic person in the world yesterday, and today if i'm completely honest also, but when i woke up this morning i decided i wanted to wear my high waisted trousers to work, which on Friday i might add when i tried them on felt LOOSE actually felt tight around my michelin esque stomach ..... the result / consequence of Sunday Carbicide .... SO i then stand there decide to suffer it and wear them to work, on the promise to myself i'm going straight to the Gym after work to give myself a powerful cardio work out ......... (I'm laughing really loudly right now about this as that is the biggest joke of the day)
Work well that was a little bit good today .... only gone and got myself a meeting at one of the 3 hotels we're going after, so the hardwork and effort i've been putting in might actually pay off slightly, so i spent most of the afternoon being a complete social networking whore on linkedin and doing some other research and turns out might have got another client on board too .... happy days ...... Although work was dead quiet, i feel like i've achieved a fair bit today, with ground work on potential clients, and managed to get a stupidly good deal agreed on Business Cards for people today, Dad has been more than up for doing some deals for twitter and linkedin etc ..... WORK TALK OVER ... BORED OF IT NOW .....
So then .... GYM TIME .... what an effing let down ..... couldn't run on the treadmill, had no capacity to do any press ups (or my attempt at press ups due to having no muscle in my upper body) i managed about 5 minutes on the x-trainer .... actually SHAMEFUL ..... i'm embarassed at myself right now .... i see my PT working one of his other clients and he's all smiles and waves at me thinking probably 'oh look clair's here working out' 'If only he knew the truth?! I literally was 20% in that gym tonight ..... So what do i put this down too ..... CARBICIDE ........ If i hadn't swayed off the protein, good carbs in small doses eating lifestyle that is now like my mantra i think my energy levels would of been normal ....... So not only am i seeeeeething at myself for the binge, i also have had no sastisfaction out of it ..... Factually all those hideous carbs are bad for you .... i eat it for one day and i feel like i've undone 6 months worth of good .....
Don't get me wrong, i am NOT perfect 100% of the time, i'd say 75% of the time i am bang on perfect - but i never eat like that and now i know why ..... i've spent so long learning about food, diet and nutrition from my PT that i made some serious choices about how i was going to eat and work out for the future and i can honestly say that all day today i've felt sluggish and lacked the energy that i normally have ...... So tomorrow i've got a PT sesh and i've texted him to tell him that he must destroy me tomorrow, and i'm having a serious word with myself about straying off the path again on a sunday .... Maybe i need to go back to sunday raving down brick lane where eating really is cheating?!
Have a loverrrrrly week

Take That in the Dirty 30's
Oh Hellllllooooooo Blog World you've not heard from me in a while, well infact not since i've been 30 years old to be honest & well i dunno why really i've been quite side tracked of late being really good and all that but i've had a lovely week so far so thought i'd share a few thoughts and tell you all a thing or 2 about whats been happening!
So in a nutshell - NOTHING .... Since turning 30 and being sensible and all that, i haven't half got old and boring! Infact in this week i've been to Fabric and Take That at Wembley and since my 30th birthday thats been the most exciting 2 things to have happened to me!
I now live in Wanstead which is bloody amazing, settled into the new house, skinted myself out - as you do - not really living the dream but I will keep telling myself that at some point i won't be a skint member and i will get to enjoy some of the fun things that every self respecting 30 year old woman should be.
Now then ...... Lets give you my thoughts on the highlight of my week / my 30th year so far ..... Take That at Wembley on Tuesday, as a 5 piece ...... Cliff notes : I prefer Take That as a 4 and Robbie on his own .... BUT it was the stuff dreams are made of - the 11 year old inside of me was giddy all day in anticipation!
Rocking up to Wembley by 8am, to queue for 12 hours might have seemed a little bit drastic but when your a veteran at these standing ticket affairs and have always been down the front, you know you need to be there early with the hardcore 'take thatters' haha - did i really just say that?! 'take thatters' .... yeaaah i did! So there we gets and theres about 70 people in front of us - which i think is pretty good, admiteddly there is 5 entrances to Wembley but each que was approximately the same ..... Everyone was in great spirits and like all these things you get chatting to those other hardcore 'i love robbie the most' fans haha ..... The security team were brilliant - walking round chatting to everyone explaining how they were going to get us in the turnstiles and condensing the que's and i have to say it was extremely organised - nobody went to ott with the pushing and que jumping and when we were finally taken up to the turnstiles it was so quick, i was so impressed!
So the sun was shining the weather was sweeeeet for the majority of the day, i've got some uber amazingly embarassing tan lines on my back from the top I was wearing, fuck knows how i'm ever gonna even them up ..... And then what happened, in typical English fashion down came the rain and it rained non stop for the duration of the time i was in the stadium .... only in England folks can you get sunburn and a cold all in the same day! To say i was drenched was an understatement.
Still ...... I really can't fault Take That, or Robbie for that matter, as thats the thing that I still find a little strange ...... good strange but strange nevertheless and for all those who've been or don't mind me talking about it i found it ever so slightly strange that the first appearance of TT was as a 4 piece and then 30 mins or so later along came Robbie, alone ...... so from the off for me it didn't feel like the original TT ..... however i can't deny the 11 year old inside of me was absolutely in awe and smiling for about 3 hours because when the 5 of them were on stage it had felt like all my christmases had come at once! It was brilliant when they performed as a 5 and did the old and new stuff .... literally sang my heart out all night long!!!!
Jason Orange - SORT ...... He has defo got better with age, like any great fine wine :-)))) i've always had the biggest soft spot for Howard and wow ...... i still have, i am very much a Williams fan but seriously TT as men nearing their 40's are smouldering HOT ..... No wonder all the 40 something women were fighting like cat and dog to be hanging over the railings .....
I did however find it a little excessive that 2 women were wearing t-shirts which said 'Robbie smash my back doors in' (with an arrow point to their backside) and one that said the same with Gary's name instead ........ Sorry but people really should be growing old gracefully ..... or not as the case may be?! I hate to say this but overall it was proper chavvy - just from looking around at the 80k + women there ......
I think my favourite moment was Relight My Fire - it was pure uptempo dancing, i've not smiled like that in a long long time and they are amazing and i'm glad i've been able to be a part of the reunion because i very much doubt TT will be doing that again as a 5 piece so it felt like that was a final piece to the puzzle ..... I think it was amazing they all sang No Regrets together too, i think it proves that they have really made up and they all are a family again
Wembley is phenomenal ..... including the prices for everything there! I was impressed with it all and i think i'd like very much to go back again and watch some kinda football match there, so if anyone ever wants to take me feel free, cos i'd be right up for going!
It was a great night, i was shattered by the end of it, the dedication for queueing for 12 + hours took its toll on me, and i've still not really recovered, or could that be a multitude of raving all night at fabric til gone 9am, and then a really long tuesday ..... Either way, this has been the most exciting few days i've had in my 'Dirty 30's' - which people are more pipe and slippers than dirty 30's .... but as the saying goes 'Things Can Only Get Better' so lets hope the 30's get slightly more interesting and give the 20's a run for their money!
Thats me done for tonight! Much Love Kisses and all that vajazzle

PS heres a little video from Take That

So in a nutshell - NOTHING .... Since turning 30 and being sensible and all that, i haven't half got old and boring! Infact in this week i've been to Fabric and Take That at Wembley and since my 30th birthday thats been the most exciting 2 things to have happened to me!
I now live in Wanstead which is bloody amazing, settled into the new house, skinted myself out - as you do - not really living the dream but I will keep telling myself that at some point i won't be a skint member and i will get to enjoy some of the fun things that every self respecting 30 year old woman should be.
Now then ...... Lets give you my thoughts on the highlight of my week / my 30th year so far ..... Take That at Wembley on Tuesday, as a 5 piece ...... Cliff notes : I prefer Take That as a 4 and Robbie on his own .... BUT it was the stuff dreams are made of - the 11 year old inside of me was giddy all day in anticipation!
Rocking up to Wembley by 8am, to queue for 12 hours might have seemed a little bit drastic but when your a veteran at these standing ticket affairs and have always been down the front, you know you need to be there early with the hardcore 'take thatters' haha - did i really just say that?! 'take thatters' .... yeaaah i did! So there we gets and theres about 70 people in front of us - which i think is pretty good, admiteddly there is 5 entrances to Wembley but each que was approximately the same ..... Everyone was in great spirits and like all these things you get chatting to those other hardcore 'i love robbie the most' fans haha ..... The security team were brilliant - walking round chatting to everyone explaining how they were going to get us in the turnstiles and condensing the que's and i have to say it was extremely organised - nobody went to ott with the pushing and que jumping and when we were finally taken up to the turnstiles it was so quick, i was so impressed!
So the sun was shining the weather was sweeeeet for the majority of the day, i've got some uber amazingly embarassing tan lines on my back from the top I was wearing, fuck knows how i'm ever gonna even them up ..... And then what happened, in typical English fashion down came the rain and it rained non stop for the duration of the time i was in the stadium .... only in England folks can you get sunburn and a cold all in the same day! To say i was drenched was an understatement.
Still ...... I really can't fault Take That, or Robbie for that matter, as thats the thing that I still find a little strange ...... good strange but strange nevertheless and for all those who've been or don't mind me talking about it i found it ever so slightly strange that the first appearance of TT was as a 4 piece and then 30 mins or so later along came Robbie, alone ...... so from the off for me it didn't feel like the original TT ..... however i can't deny the 11 year old inside of me was absolutely in awe and smiling for about 3 hours because when the 5 of them were on stage it had felt like all my christmases had come at once! It was brilliant when they performed as a 5 and did the old and new stuff .... literally sang my heart out all night long!!!!
Jason Orange - SORT ...... He has defo got better with age, like any great fine wine :-)))) i've always had the biggest soft spot for Howard and wow ...... i still have, i am very much a Williams fan but seriously TT as men nearing their 40's are smouldering HOT ..... No wonder all the 40 something women were fighting like cat and dog to be hanging over the railings .....
I did however find it a little excessive that 2 women were wearing t-shirts which said 'Robbie smash my back doors in' (with an arrow point to their backside) and one that said the same with Gary's name instead ........ Sorry but people really should be growing old gracefully ..... or not as the case may be?! I hate to say this but overall it was proper chavvy - just from looking around at the 80k + women there ......
I think my favourite moment was Relight My Fire - it was pure uptempo dancing, i've not smiled like that in a long long time and they are amazing and i'm glad i've been able to be a part of the reunion because i very much doubt TT will be doing that again as a 5 piece so it felt like that was a final piece to the puzzle .....

Its been a while .......
So as the title says, its been a while since i've written one of these things, and theres no real reason for this, except for the fact that time is actually dissapearing at a stupid rate ... given the fact the world is ending in 2012 i'd kinda like time to slow down please ......
I've got no real reason for writing tonight, apart from the fact that 1) i quite enjoy it, and 2) I'm killing time til TOWIE is on ..... there's no real banter going on with twitter - thanks Spurs ...... as everyone is apparently watching 22 men kick a ball about a green field ..... So anyways in the background i've got Kerry Katona on, and is it just me but is this 'mother' on here an absolute leech or what? i'd drop the pikey with a shit tattoo on her hand on her head ..... Seriously, its a true fact we are a product of our parents, no offence ..... but look at the mother you can see why KK has turned out like she has ..... So she don't like her house .... GET OFF YOUR FAT ARSE, GET A JOB AND PAY FOR YOUR OWN GAFF ..... Dear God ........ and we wonder why this country is in the state it is .....
So anyways, apart from being a dREAMboat what else has been going on .... Well moving is top of the priorities, 6 weeks and the lease on the cottage is up and its time to shift myself over to the neighbouring side of South Woodford or thereabouts .... slightly excited about this, but seriously house hunting is so effing stressful .... But anyways, its well under way .... 6 weeks is going to come round so bloody quickly too so basically WE NEED A BIGGER BOAT!!! Pardon the pun, but yeah the manor needs to expand in size and its going to be in perfect timing for tearing the arse out of a summer of BBQ's Music and Palllllllsh ..... Whole new chapter begins now, nice new start in a good place, and yeah i'm gonna be vintage .... AND WHAT!
haha my 30th Birthday is basically a week away, and i've been building up to it in my head and now its pretty much here, i've decided i want to do as little as possible for it and thats not because i can't physically wait to start my dirty30's but more because I've realised that i just can't do everything .... Really looking forward to going for a banging dinner with the blood famalam .... hoping my Dad is gonna pull out all the stops and take me somewhere proper with my mum and my brother ..... Standard behaviour for Easter Sunday ... Mass drinking binge down brick lane ending up at Fuse .... Mainly because its easy and i know everyone will be there ... People keep on asking me what i want for my b/day and honestly its so hard to know because i dont really want much 2bh - I know i'm getting my Cocoon in the Park ticket off 2 of my friends which will be splendid but apart from that i don't really want very much! I'd like a birthday cake and a badge though!
Sorry but on this Kerry Katona show the MOTHER is stillllll whinging about her smaller house and honestly i am gobsmacked at how vile a woman could possibly be ........ she needs to stop being a leech and sort her fucking life out .....
Alright .... i've been down the Gym working my fat self out, and honestly i've been really struggling with the motivation levels, not that i think i am quite obese, but i am really not that happy with my progress you know ... the amount i've been going to the gym i should be basically anorexic now .... and do you know what i've probably lost about 3lbs since December .... its really quite de-motivating ..... however on the positive i am about 700 times fitter (physically) than i was ... but i can't really work it out, i've only managed to come to one conclusion .... I AM NOT NORMAL ...... Still i am not going to give up but i am going on a BIG detox after the birthday carnage .... i've managed a few weeks off the booze but i'm gonna actually get it out my life and if i do fall off the wagon i am only allowed a SMALL vodka and soda water ...... and another thing ... cigarettes are officially banned from my life too .....this came into effect Monday of this week and so far so good, i don't even know why i smoke, i am not addicted but i just think its somethign to do when i'm pissed out my face!
So anyways, theres a biiiiiiiiiiig weekend in London town coming up which i am slightly excited about .... Desolat comes to that new club Pulse and pretty much everyone who's anyone is going .... I am so excited to see Martin Buttrich_Live i might even wet myself before then .... The line up is ridiculous but i am most excited for this as i've not seen MB yet and all the others i have about 65485484 times already! :-) I guess its pretty much all downhill to the birthday from here on out ..... Oh well BOV!!!!
In addition to this, i am getting my arm pierced, my tattoo inked again in a few areas, and i'm gonna have a few days off work im not entirely sure what im going to do, but i need some eyelashes and im debating botox on my time off too .... my head is like a wrinkled mess ...... whoever said to grow old gracefully obviously didn't give a shit what they looked like .... while theres botox i will not be having lines in my forehead!!!!!
I've had a splendid last few weeks ..... i've spent a lot of time with some of my favourite people, and its become apparent that factually i have THE best boy and girl in my life as my best pals ....... and now the summer's literally on the horizon well i'm gonna be wearing a smile until October 4th ish .......
Oh my mother deserves a mention ....2 tickets for Take That in July for me as a little present ............ Love You Mummit ... theres a reason you are my god!
Now then ... i need to go hang out the washing and make another drink its nearly TOWIE time .........
I will blog again very soon ..... i might have something exciting to tell everyone in a few days time .... <3 <3 <3

Boy Meets Girl .....
Right do you know what the main purpose of this evenings Blog isn't to tell / bore any of you with what i've been up too lately, because to be honest its been pretty much a much of a much - Gym, Seeing my pals, Having a little Drink - generally just being me ...... But its to discuss the fact that the whole Girl Likes Boy, Boy Likes Girl situation seems to have actually lost it's meaning / importance in society today and quite frankly (and i am happy to speak on half of all women here) i am siiiiiiiiiiiiiick of it!
Ok so here's the thing ..... and i am going to put it REALLY simply : Relationships / Dating are Important ...... Games aren't.
In the last few weeks i could real a list as big as my shoe collection of females i know who have (for want of a better word) been mugged off by men ..... And the women that i know believe me are sorts .... proper nice girls (and if i'm completely honest i am going to include myself in this group too) and i am literally sitting here right now wondering what the hell has happened and why does this repeatedly happen to such amazing women.
Weirdly, it all seems to follow the same pattern (i can only assume its because the men want a shag - which boys, seriously if thats what you want, there really is no need to be keen - just be upfront!) you know the bloke is keen, the girl clearly fancies him, blatant severe flirting a date or 3 loads of texting, the odd drunken phone call, affectionate behaviour, none of this getting past 1st base malarky ..... and then BANG ...... SILENCE ....... Anyone care to share the light as to why?!
Of course i am generalising, because thats not textbook ... sometimes theres the ones who promise you dinner and romance when all they want to do is get you naked in their bed ..... note to any woman who has done that before £100 has been spent at a boaty restaurant ...... LEARN FROM IT! Sorry if i sound harsh, but if he expects sex and nothing else, you might aswell get a nice dinner out of it ....... Not that i am condoning this behaviour, but i like most women am sick of being treated in a bad way ......
One of my closest friends was due to be going on a date tomorrow night to a really posh restaurant - his suggestion i might add now isn't going ..... because this 30 year old man has decided since sunday to not call / text or reply to her .... when prior to this he was ringing, texting her practically everyday ..... She met him down the pub last Friday and ended up staying round his where he tried NOTHING on with her and was nothing but a gentleman to her, and since sunday hes completely gone on the missing list ...... Keep Your Poxy Meal MATE! I feel bad for her as he was giving out all the right signals and she wasn't too ott with him, nor was she pushy or asking anything ..... WEIRD ..... men!
Then there's the other few who have seen blokes a few times and both parties clearly like one another, so what happens .... oh yes a nice game of text tennis commences, average game lasting 12 hours ....... I don't get it ..... if you like someone why wait 90734507690746 hours until you text them back?! Again, anyone care to explain it to me .......
Now you would think that the men i am generalising about here were how old .... 18?! No ..... sadly the men i know and my friends are involved with are in the mid-late 20's and early 30's ......
What has actually happened?! Are relationships just not that important anymore, or are we all just on the look out for 'something better' so we keep our options open?! I literally have no clue ..... and nor do i think this is a one way street, because i know a few women who behave like this ...... but seriously I am getting really disillusioned by meeting people, getting involved based on events that happen around me daily to both myself and my friends .....
I went on a brilliant first date last week, with what i thought was one of the nicest men ever ....literally proper keen he was on the text all the time before during and after and then Sunday after he buckled himself he's not so much as bothered with me ....... And sorry but i am not about to go chasing him! I've got too much of a life going on to be doing all that ....... Although Tell me something - do men want to be chased?! Literally i've got no clue, and i know a lot of my friends feel the same ..........
Now don't even get me started on the ones who clearly want to have their cake and eat it, but because they have got morals, they can't do the dirty on the girl they are seeing ...... I admire the honesty there and respect ..... but seriously drop me out! Because it makes it even harder to dislike you, yet makes you seem almost like a model man ...... which techically doesn't exist in my book.
I am sitting here just thinking perhaps this crap internet based world we live in has actually killed the importance of dating and relationships?! because i remember when none of this was around us how much simpler life was ........... If i wanted to play games i'd of been a competitive athlete or something ....... If all men want is a bunk up don't promise us the world .... you really don't need to, be upfront about it, you might be surprised at what you get ...... and if you say your going to go on date 2, or take some amazing girl for dinner, then do it ..... and don't take 4874646868787 hours to ring or text her about it, because women only tend to get in a mood if you break a promise ..... if you haven't said lets go for dinner on friday, then she won't get in a mood ..... it really isn't rocket science you know!
I'm not gonna go on any longer .... i think you get the point i'm trying to make .... and for any amazing men who don't fall into this category, like some of my boy pals .... Sorry i dont mean to offend you - but the women in your lives are VERY lucky to have you!

So This Is Where I've Been .......
Feel like i've not written a proper blog in ages, and i've been saying that i need to write some shizzle about what i've been up to etc .... which if i am completely honest hasn't been that much really - i'm turning into a right bore of late & feel like i've just been working working working with some Gym thrown in for good measure.
Ok well then maybe thats not all i've been doing but it actually feels like that right now.
Currently I am not watching the Brit Awards, slightly fuming that its on at the same time as Big Fat Gypsy Wedding to be honest like i can't quite believe it clashes, but i have been religiously watching the gypsys for my own wedding inspiration ...... Yes okay i'm joking, but I am defo going to Appleby 2011 - someone must want to grab me surely?!
Right so what have i actually been doing - well i am morphing into part of the fixtures and fittings of David Lloyd - I am spending 5 days out of 7 down there and if i'm honest, i'm not really seeing the results as yet, however i am well aware that rome wasn't built in a day & if you saw the photos that i made Emma take of me 3 weeks ago you would understand that i am very much a work in progress .... However i've made a lot of positive changes to my lifestyle, as i said i would at the start for this year ... Most people go on that whole i'm on a january detox i did say that it wasn't like that for me, i am on a lifestyle change .... and i can honestly say its been the easiest thing i've ever done ..... This year so far i've given up drinking like a fish, staying out all weekend with no sleep, crisps & just generally eating badly ..... I'm not saying i'm perfect because there is sa lot of room still to make more changes but i feel like i am on the right path to hit 30 and look and feel better than ever before.
However, i am not an angel and i still managed to go out Sunday and show exactly how over qualified i really am for a starring role in Booze Britain .... its okay though as i've spoken to my PT this evening and he's explained to me that drinking once a month is absolutely fine he even actually said to me just make sure you get totally bladdered ...... So once a month it is then! hahaha
Oh yeah the date i was going on, well he's not around still as is busy with work etc but i think he's home at the weekend which means ive gotta make my mind up .... but how funny is this, theres this other bloke who i royally, and i mean royally messed around over the summer last year and if i'm honest i don't really know why i really messed him around when i look back on it now, because he was nothing but nice to me ... Well anyways after reading the section in company magazine about dating and how even bad dates are good i think ive decided that i'm gonna defo go out with no1 .... and weirdly the bloke i messed around last year i've also decided i want to go out with him too ..... i was really bored at work last monday, and i've got him on my msn, so for once in like about 8 months i logged in and decided to talk to him and say hello - i would of actually text him if i didnt lose his number when i broke my phone but couldn't ... anyways sure as eggs are eggs he gave me his number again ... i've not seen/spoken to him since last august & for some strange reason he's still as keen to actually take me out ... Well he was, and i rang him up for a chat the other ight and we agreed to go out last friday, which actually never happened, we had to reschedule it as he had to work ... Yep yet another music / industry type (when will i ever bloody learn) and no before anyone asks i didn't get moody or peeved about it because unlike most i can accept that duty calls and sometimes you can't help it ..... So we've rescheduled ... but since then he's done a really (and i mean really) terrific (god i love that word) job of making me want to text him by being 'busy' most of the time ....... My natural stubborn streak won't give in ... but seriously hats off to the chap for getting me interested by playing me at my own game!!!
Valentines Day ............. what a croc of shite! for the record though i had THE best valentines day ever - woke up without a hangover, which i clearly deserved to actually have, work went off without a hitch, i had a brilliant work out down the Gym & then 2 of my girls both come over and we all had dinner together, however they come over because their divvy boyfriends managed to ruin Valentines Day for them by just being unthoughtful typical men. Personally i've never been a believer in Valentines .... I believe in the business brain behind it that rapes the consumer market and makes a lot of money ....but really do you need a specific day to make an effort to show someone that you love how you feel .... NO is the simple and short answer .... However i'm not gonna lie to you, i've always said to my previous boyfriends in regard to V-Day ... 'Save your money its my birthday in 7 weeks and i'd much rather you use the money for that to get me something better' .....
My friend Max has surprised everyone and flown home from Oz a few months early, he told me middle of last week and i was buzzing with excitement and bursting to tell everyone, but i was sworn to secrecy and i managed to hold it all in ... was the most random moment on sunday when i saw him tho i nearly suffocated him where i was cuddling him so much! totally smothered him!!! :-) it was a great day and he looks amazing and its brilliant to have him home, for however long that will be and that i can honestly say has been the highlight of the last 2 weeks for me as i literally haven't been out the house ..... Raving shoes are defo in for 're-heeling' currently!!!!!
Feeling REALLY REALLY happy right now, healthy body / healthy mind and i'm doing lots of work on things i want to do right now .... Stacy has told me I need to write more - not specifically about my life like in these blogs, but i was showing her some of the things i've written before, some which is fiction, some which is personal about stuff / events and some is just some PR Blurb ..... So i think i am going to do it - write more that is but i am going to start off with writing about things which make me feel uncomfortable .... Once i've tackled this, i might make it public viewing so if people are interested they can read it ............ The other thing i'm working on is my CIMA qualification ... its about time i actually stop dragging my sorry arse and get into gear with this, because it just makes sense ..............
Anyways, enough with the word vomit for one night, i think i've rambled enough! I'll have some more to write about i'm sure by the end of the week, as a little opportunity presented itself to me today and i'll probably be dying to tell you all about it by Saturday!
Happy Tuesday Boys and Girls
Love From ME! xxx

Well anyways after reading the section in company magazine about dating and how even bad dates are good i think ive decided that i'm gonna defo go out with no1 .... and weirdly the bloke i messed around last year i've also decided i want to go out with him too ..... i was really bored at work last monday, and i've got him on my msn, so for once in like about 8 months i logged in and decided to talk to him and say hello - i would of actually text him if i didnt lose his number when i broke my phone but couldn't ... anyways sure as eggs are eggs he gave me his number again ... i've not seen/spoken to him since last august & for some strange reason he's still as keen to actually take me out ... Well he was, and i rang him up for a chat the other ight and we agreed to go out last friday, which actually never happened, we had to reschedule it as he had to work ... Yep yet another music / industry type (when will i ever bloody learn) and no before anyone asks i didn't get moody or peeved about it because unlike most i can accept that duty calls and sometimes you can't help it ..... So we've rescheduled ... but since then he's done a really (and i mean really) terrific (god i love that word) job of making me want to text him by being 'busy' most of the time ....... My natural stubborn streak won't give in ... but seriously hats off to the chap for getting me interested by playing me at my own game!!!
Valentines Day ............. what a croc of shite! for the record though i had THE best valentines day ever - woke up without a hangover, which i clearly deserved to actually have, work went off without a hitch, i had a brilliant work out down the Gym & then 2 of my girls both come over and we all had dinner together, however they come over because their divvy boyfriends managed to ruin Valentines Day for them by just being unthoughtful typical men. Personally i've never been a believer in Valentines .... I believe in the business brain behind it that rapes the consumer market and makes a lot of money ....but really do you need a specific day to make an effort to show someone that you love how you feel .... NO is the simple and short answer .... However i'm not gonna lie to you, i've always said to my previous boyfriends in regard to V-Day ... 'Save your money its my birthday in 7 weeks and i'd much rather you use the money for that to get me something better' .....
My friend Max has surprised everyone and flown home from Oz a few months early, he told me middle of last week and i was buzzing with excitement and bursting to tell everyone, but i was sworn to secrecy and i managed to hold it all in ... was the most random moment on sunday when i saw him tho i nearly suffocated him where i was cuddling him so much! totally smothered him!!! :-) it was a great day and he looks amazing and its brilliant to have him home, for however long that will be and that i can honestly say has been the highlight of the last 2 weeks for me as i literally haven't been out the house ..... Raving shoes are defo in for 're-heeling' currently!!!!!
Feeling REALLY REALLY happy right now, healthy body / healthy mind and i'm doing lots of work on things i want to do right now .... Stacy has told me I need to write more - not specifically about my life like in these blogs, but i was showing her some of the things i've written before, some which is fiction, some which is personal about stuff / events and some is just some PR Blurb ..... So i think i am going to do it - write more that is but i am going to start off with writing about things which make me feel uncomfortable .... Once i've tackled this, i might make it public viewing so if people are interested they can read it ............ The other thing i'm working on is my CIMA qualification ... its about time i actually stop dragging my sorry arse and get into gear with this, because it just makes sense ..............
Anyways, enough with the word vomit for one night, i think i've rambled enough! I'll have some more to write about i'm sure by the end of the week, as a little opportunity presented itself to me today and i'll probably be dying to tell you all about it by Saturday!
Happy Tuesday Boys and Girls
Love From ME! xxx
