Thankful Thursday

Hubba Hubba :)
'ow you all doin'?

I am actually trying to recall what happened this week. They are going by so fast; I feel as though I'm in that movie, 'Groundhog Day'. The week was though it had all happened before.
What a 'Thankful Thursday' this will be. Imagine if I remembered nothing at all, "Well this week I pretty much..... ahhh... well there was this and that.... so.... anyway, I hope you enjoyed that." :) Sounds like something I'd do anyway.

My 'Thankful Thursday' of which I can remember:

1) Lindor chocolates, which I won in College... a bit over-competitive, but what the heck! I loved having a buzzer where it 'mooed'. Yeah, farm animal buzzers in a quiz... nothing can top that off!

2) New Instagram buddy :)

3) Morrisons... Terrys Chocolate... my fave!

4) Red John episode in 'The Mentalist'.

5) 'Casanova'.

6) Swimming with my little cousin.

7) Skype chats with family and besty pal.

8) Naps after College, planning on taking one after writing this.

9) Getting compliments at work... Awwww!

10) Organizing flight for Mauritius with family for 20 days...

11) Organizing expenses for Christmas.

12) Having the giggles in College.

13) Bastille - Of The Night

I hope all of you had a lovely week. Did ye do anything eventful? Any songs or movies to recommend?

Thanks everyone for keeping up with this somewhat disappointing information about myself, maybe next week there will be a little more that I can remember :)

Thankful Thursday


Hello Everyone,

It's unbelievable how fast that week flew by. I don't ever go back on my blogs, re-reading them that is, and yet with these Thankful Thursday Posts I can always remember what I wrote the previous time.
I wonder what changes there'll be in my life this time next year.... Hmm, curious!
Well I hope the changes will have a 'GOOD' affect on my life. 

This week, I welcomed back 'I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here', and yes some of you are probably rolling your eyes, heehee, but I Love Ant & Dec... I can't help but laugh watching them. Can anyone remember the Koala on the show a few years back? I don't think I've ever remember such a funny time! That memory for some bizarre reason will always stick to my mind.

So this fast-forward-like week of what made me smile entailed of:
- 'I'm a Celebrity...' and 'Strictly Come Dancing'.
- A New Winter Brown/Maroon coat... expensive but so warm, I feel as though I go around the whole day wearing a duvet :)
- Ben & Jerry Chocolate Fudge Brownie.
- 'The Mentalist' Catch-up... this Monday will be an exciting episode... Ooooh Red John?
- 'Grey's Anatomy' Catch-up... Poor Bailey :(
- Mr Kipling cakes.
- Audrey Hepburn.
- Hanging around with my little 7 year old Cousin in the Shopping Centre, going from coffee shop to coffee shop (So Lazy).
- Coscos take-away cups... so festive and adorable, especially the babychino cups :)
- Organizing trip to Mauritius next March...
- New Stationary for Collage.
- Collage off both Wednesday and tomorrow.
- Gary Barlow 'Let Me Go'. I just become giddy when I hear it.
- Mint Hot-chocolate with lots of cream, in a HUGE mug, heehee :D
- My new phone, Nokia Lumina 920... truly obsessed with it.
- Re-enacting 'Big Brother' in class, yes we spend our time doing "important" things, Haa!

This week had a lot of giggles and organization, so I feel great looking back on it.

Snow is soon to be upon us here in London, and please God it won't mess up my flights for back home to Ireland. I have my fingers crossed.

Anyway I hope all of you had a lovely week, any highlights you'd like to share? Whether funny or interesting I'd love to hear from you readers :)

Love you all lots,

Thankful Thursday


Good Moaning (as Catherine Tate would say),

Today is Thursday, and in my brain, it's the start of the week. I wish I could say the week was easy and relaxing having not been at work because of College, but I have been spending my time stressing over assignments, a presentation and my Personal Statement for Uni. Stressful... yes!
It's so hard to know what route is the best. Especially as I come from Ireland, and don't know the different areas of London. I just can't wait by tomorrow it'll be all over. Everything in and paid for.
Let us hope that Michaela will be a little more stress-free by next week :)

So let us get along with the shebang :)

My Thankful Thursday consisted of:

-Booking my flight for Ireland (for a weekend getaway... that's right, I'm what the young ones would say... COOL! ;)
-BBC Adaption of 'Sense & Sensibility'.
-Zumba classes for the Abs.
-Job offer (a possibility) in working at the hospital beside me... anything is possible.
-Costa Coffee.
-Trip to the Center of London, and seeing all the pretty window displays.
-Jo Malone Signature Perfume of Lime Basil & Mandarin.
-Bubble Baths.
-Starbucks Festive X-mas cups.

Its small I know but that was my week, full of randoms, stress...

Let me know what your week entailed of :)

Thanks for reading :)

Thankful Thursday


This week was divided between time spent in Ireland and England. The half-term break was lovely. I got to spend time with my Family. Even my bed, which is like sleeping on the floor was comfortable to me.
Since it was Halloween, I assumed that I'd be watching scary movies but no, me and my Brother decided to watch comedy. We started off with 'Monster University' and 'This Is The End'.
I got my brother addicted to the Box-set, Season 1-3 of 'Downton Abbey'... "I KNEW YOU'D LIKE IT!"
Then after having so much candy in Ireland, I got back to London, getting my routine sorted.
I've even started a Fitness Diary (which will become a new post that I'll regularly do). So I've been pushing myself to do better with putting a stop to dairy, bread (I love bread, which sounds strange I know!) and I don't know how long this will last but a stop to chocolate, well it's a break. I'll treat myself from time to time.
I've also found a new love this week from 'Starbucks', it's of course a x-mas special, Gingerbread Latte... tres delicieux. It's even out past the Caramel Macchiato, saying a lot. And the Christmasy coffee cups... Ooooh, pretty!

So this weeks Thankful Thursday is:
-I'm putting down Gingerbread Lattes... it deserves to be here!
-Zumba class.
-Getting a lift to College from lovely pal Sammy, such a  nice surprise. (If your reading Somayeh.... "Hiiiiiiii")
-Casseys blog over on Blogilates. Following your 12 week plan, which is so hard... ALREADY!
-'Downton Abbey'
-Smoothies.
-The Great Gatsby, the book.
-Oyster Card.
-The Cinema.
-Haagan Dazs Vanilla Ice-cream on Halloween night.
-Fireworks on Bonfire night in London.
Wah hey, that's all folks... I miss them cartoons so much.

I have been feeling so stressed since being back in London. Assignments, Essays and Presentations. Along with making decisions on what University's to go to... seriously so hard! Then there's the time to fit in exercise.
Let's hope this week won't be as hectic as this one.

Let me know what the highlights were of your week :) I'd be interested to know.

Love you all loads,

Hello November


Hello Sweety pies, (with pie flavour) :)
It's Monday night and I'm sitting down with a cup of earl tea watching Nicholas Cage on the T.V.
It's been a long while since I've posted (apart from my Thankful Thursday posts). Life has been busy with College and work, and with pretty much trying to kick my butt to go jogging in the park. I see how other people are able to juggle with these daily dilemmas, and I just don't know how. Please let me know in the comments below if you are indeed one of those people, and just 'HOW YOU DO IT!'

November is here... AT LAST! Christmas is only around the corner, meaning sparkly lights, trips to lit-up London, cozy nights in, family, friends, you know! Pretty much the usual, but lovely, well spent Christmas.

This November I'd like to start setting a few goals for myself, so that by December I'll be even more happier for Christmas... a treat for myself.

1) Get this 'routine' of mine sorted, heehee. So I don't have to feel so tired & stressed all the time.
2) Organize my new room, paint, some furniture from 'Ikea', little personal decor touches.
3) Start a diary on what food I eat, what exercise I do. This isn't only for losing weight but for my acne.
4) Buy my very own iphone.
5) Find some time (even on lunch breaks) for reading. There was a time when I'd read every night in my bed, best way I found for falling asleep, but I seem to have lost my interest because of all the crappy books I've come across in the last few months. So for now, I shall stick to the greats. I'm currently reading 'The Great Gatsby', movie was brilliant so the book I hope will be even better.

I hope that these goals will be reached, I'd be a happy camper if they were.

Anyway, let me know in the comments what you guys do to get through your weekly routines. Do ye find it difficult to get through even a day? I'd love to hear from ye.
