there's a party in the usa.
i'm effing freezing. this house is never warm. why the hell am i even in this country?
this year is colder than last year. or maybe that's because i actually go outside these days, whereas last year i just didn't.
christmas shopping; all done.
wrapping presents; pending.
i'm pretty impressed with myself. last year i was wrapping presents on boxing day praying royal mail would deliver stuff before new year atleast.
this year i am 10x more excited about giving my presents than recieving them. with the risk of sounding cocky &it all backfiring, i can safely say i have bought some awesome presents.
i got my present off my parents already. i got £500. i have no idea what to spend it on.
i want to spend it on something special &i definitely don't wanna blow it on nights out &shit clothes i'll never wear. that's what my wage is for. so i'm going to have to have a proper think.
i already saved up for florida in august, well, enough for the flight &by the time august rolls round i'll have saved for the rest. SUPER ORGANISED.
if i had infinite time off work i'd just spend it on another holiday somewhere else.
alas, no such luck.
speaking of work, 2010 is definitely the year to find a new job.
i'll be 24, i have a degree from a decent uni &i like to think i'm pretty employable. what the fuck am i playing at then?
everyone says i just need to apply for awesome jobs &have more faith in myself but i'm no good at it. as soon as i see "*generic job descrpition word* experience desirable" i just jack the application in, when in reality i know i could do the job.
time to start making myself sound better than i actually am &going for it.
oh &as if my rubbish wage &uniform wasn't reason enough to quit my job, on wednesday i BUMPED INTO A CORPSE. the corpse of a child at that. fucking gross. i think i turned green.
&one of my favourite patients died aswell. which just sucks.
in happier news, i had a lazy weekend. i mean i literally bailed on everyone to catch up on sleep, finish buying presents &eat. went to this amaaaazing steakhouse in town &had the best steaks ever, it was so wonderful &they had a man on the piano playing brilliant songs.
i have a 50% voucher to use in january so we're going for my birthday. get involved.
i finally cut my extensions so they're actually wearable;
&then i made a hair appointment for NYE &i'm gonna bleach the hell out of it. so these will be made useless.
after christmas i will definitely be buying some of this underwear (ignore the twat modelling it);
i watched some old office last night. this is probably the best moment ever;

i'm meant to be going out tomorrow night but i'm not sure i can face work hungover on wednesday. especially when i have a meeting at 9. but it is christmas &i have stopped caring so maybe i'll grow some balls &go.
i'm off to get a credit card because america wont let me do/have ANYTHING without one. dangerous, dangeous times.
really excited about new year, new start etc.
2010 is for moving in with boyfriends, new jobs, new friends, better prospects, city centre apartments!
also quite looking forward to christmas eve in wetherby for once. will be nice to catch up with people i haven't seen since last year.
sean &i have decided we seriously need to find another couple to double-date with. as sad as it sounds, it would be more fun to go out for meals with other people &stuff. this is a sign of getting old.
also i definitely need to surround myself with some more focused people. it gets stagnant when everyone i know seems to be happy just plodding along &doing the bare minimum and no one has any DRIVE to do better. it infuriates me at times &i'm sure if i was around people with mad ambitions &stuff i'd be more inclined to get off my arse.
this is a criticism of myself as much as of other people.
all i really want for christmas is one of these;

boston terrier <3
last night i had a dream about my friend cassie who lives in america &i haven't spoken to for like 3 years as we lost touch. time to re-connect i think.
right, present wrapping &new hills time <3
