I thought I'd write a bit about what's happened in the past month and the new exciting things that have cropped up/are soon to begin. I'm going to set this out in order of things that happen (expect this list to be incredibly short as my life is very boring and doesn't consist of much).


the first week of january: 

• I applied for a million jobs which resulted in yet again nothing
• I made myself a personal goal of having the perfect eyebrows this year (I wish I was joking)
• I went to cambridge with my wonderful niece and enjoyed a day of browsing and eating wagamama (our favourite)
• I got to finally tell my niece that we're going to see Justin Bieber at the O2 in March!!!!
• I became an owner of an iPhone 5, which luckily for me didn't cost anything as I used my dad's upgrade. and I've got to say, after years of owning a blackberry, the iPhone shits all over my previous phones.

the second week of january:

• I browsed through cruises (for myself) for at least a good 5 hours at work.
• I went to lunch with/spent time with my big sister cath and my gorgeous niece molly, which I enjoyed a huge amount.
• I babysat two of my nephews, which mainly consisted of baby looney tunes, beans on toast and chocolate.
• england decided to cover everything in thick snow, which resulted in my family and I being stuck in our house for 5 days.

the third/last week of january:

• I listened to craig david non-stop, which I know doesn't sound like anything great but I love me some craig david and the love grew a significant amount that week.
• I re-read the perks of being a wallflower for the millionth time.
• I came across the horrendous video that is a girl eating a used tampon.... I WISH I COULD UNSEE THINGS.
• a lovely couple and their children viewed our house as it's currently on the market. it upset me a little as I really love our home and having to sell it is horrible.
• I applied for a few apprenticeships working in a nursery.
• I watched the perks of being a wallflower for the first time, and I enjoy the book a lot more.

this last week and a bit:

• I pulled a muscle in my neck and I was in a lot of pain for the most part of a week.
• one of my sister's had to be rushed to A&E as she was/still is incredibly unwell.
• my mum bought a new car which I'm super excited about!
• it snowed again and caused problems as usual.
• my sister was rushed back into hospital last night and she is a lot more unwell than before.

so that's what happened really, like I said, nothing great or interesting!

I have some good news though (well good for me). I got two calls back from two different nurseries and I have an all day trial/interview tomorrow and then another on saturday. I am incredibly excited that there is now a chance I can do something bigger/better with my life. I've always been interested in going down the childcare route, but never really thought it would be an option. but alas, I put myself out there and good things have come of it (for once).

I am also going back to turkey in two months and I extremely excited! I've gone every year for the past 7 years, to the exact same place. I love love love it there and I'm literally counting down the days.
