New Year, New Start…

First of all, I have to say HAPPY NEW YEAR! 2012 is definitely going to be one to remember…

This year is pretty much the start of my life. I will graduate from Uni in July and then its all new to me from there. My resolutions this year include; win back my boyfriend’s trust, become happy with my body and GET A JOB!

Now, it looks as if these are all going to be almost impossible. My boyfriend’s trust is not easy to find and has not improved much over the last year, even though I have been nothing but good to him! But, hopefully I will be able to move in with him after Uni and that might sort it out.

Becoming happy with my body shouldn’t be the hardest thing. Notice I put body and not weight; my weight seems to be strangely high for the actual size of me and somehow I am 2 stone heavier than my own boyfriend even though he is considerably taller than me! So I don’t care about my weight at all, just what I look like. I’m not at all fat and most people would tut at me if they knew I wasn’t happy with the way I look. I put on around 2 stone while at Uni, and it would be nice to drop a bit. I just want to have my perfect beach body back that I had before Uni, instead of this more wobbly curvier version of me. I shouldn’t complain but I would like to look thinner than I do at the moment just to make me happy – so that’s the plan!

Getting a job – this is, so far, looking to be rather difficult. My plans to get onto a Graduate Scheme in HR is becoming more and more bleak the more rejections I get. Still have about 5 to go though. If not, I’m hoping to get a normal job that will pay the rent and then I can always reapply next year.

So, those are the resolutions so far, hopefully yours are looking more probable than mine at the moment!

Wish me luck to my new start in the real world…

Christmas Time!

 

Christmas is on the way! HOORAY! Just one week to go and I know everyone is crazy excited. I hope you have all got your gifts and stuff, and maybe even received some already.

Tonight I have been at a “gay party”, as I usually call it. It’s a friend of the family, and every Christmas he hosts these very camp parties which are usually about 80% gay men, 15% straight men and 5% female. They are just brilliant! I have been going to them with my parents and brother since I was about 3 years old. My brother and I used to sit in the front room watching films and occasionally pop into the back room to grab more sausage rolls and satsumas (traditional “gay party” food). Once, Michael Barrymore was there and my Dad ended up having an argument with him – no idea what it was about, but still, claim to fame or what!? Haha!

Not sure what my point was in that little story there – that was just my evening for you. To me, that party is a big part of my Christmas and I’m sure all of you have things alike.

While I’m here, I’m going to show you all my festive nails:

These are my penguin finger nails to go with my penguin outfit that I had for a uni event. One of my housemates gave me a box full of nail varnishes, all with nozzles so you can do tiny detail on the nails. The paints seem quite cheap though as they take a while to dry and the brush part of them is awful. Well worth it if you want to do pictures with lots of detail though.

And then to match:

Snowman/Snowflake toe nails. These were done before I got the nice new varnishes hence why they are less detailed. But oh so jolly 🙂

 

So…HAPPY CHRISTMAS to all my readers, and I hope you all have a fantastic new year. Don’t get too drunk 😉

Ah! Cannot wait for roast turkey!
