GOOOOD MORNING! Or afternoon or whatever! GOD! I have ben superduperbusy! Since we last spoke I have ended my placement with IMS Health, had several nights out, packed and now I’m in Norway for a week! A week! I mean seriously?! I haven’t seen my friends and everybody since forever, but it’s all the time I have. So ever since I came back yesterday I have been seeing friends & family non stop! It’s going to be like this until next wednesday when I go to London yet again to see the Proms and some other things. Then I will return to Norway again and then on the 24th of August I’m leaving for Tokyo! Gosh! Busy times! Anyways. I’m in a rush now, I have a friend coming over and I’m supposed to cook for her. Haven’t started yet! Anyways. These photos were taken a couple of weeks ago when the weather was impeccable in London. I hope you understand my lack of blogging! Have a lovely wednesday everything and don’t forget to watch the Olympics! Team GB is owning at the moment!

Good afternoon lovely people! I’m sorry for being so gone these days – I’m just so busy moving around, finishing placement, preparing for Tokyo and running! But soon it will all calm down. Well I say soon. I mean in over a months time when I will finally be settled in Tokyo. For the time being I don’t even have a place to come to, however I need to sort that out quickly! Ahhhh….things to do! Anyways. My boyfriend bought me these lovely earrings at a market we went to on Saturday. Isn’t he lovely? I’m just popping in to wish you a lovely Monday!

Let’s hit the road giiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiirl! Haha! It’s Monday everybody and I’ve already complete the first workout of the week! It feels good and I’m happy! This weekend I moved from my place to my boyfriend’s place where I will stay for the next two (and last) weeks of my placement! I’m literally living out of the suitcase, but I’ll try my best to get some outfit shots soon! Also. The sun is up! It’s fantastic weather and it’s making my day! Later today I reckon I’ll do some sunbathing. Have a good day everybody!

Heeeey guys! How are you? I hope you’re having a better day & start of week than I’ve had. I still feel extremely clogged and unwell. I haven’t been to the gym since Monday and it looks like today’s going to be a pass as well! That puts me behind in my weekly schedule – but oh well! You can’t always plan everything – even though I’d like to! For the rest I’m becoming very very very excited by the prospect of owning my favorite Chanel bag again so I’m trying to cut way back on my overall spending until I have with me again! Have a lovely Wednesday Y’all! Even if you’re saving (like me) or splurging (which I’d like to be doing!).

Happy Monday Everybody! How was your weekend? My highlight occurred on Saturday, but more about that in a sec! The weekend started on Friday evening with a lovely family & friends dinner at Zizzi (for a chain it’s very good pizza!). Then on Saturday morning I went for a run in Hyde Park and took the train to Sevenoaks where we decided to go to Bluewater. My boyfriend’s family got 3 iPads and I got a two tops and a new pair of jeans! I felt a bit outdone shopping wise (rarely happens!), but oh well! On Sunday we went golfing and generally chilled. So yes. A L.O.V.E.L.Y weekend! Anyways. Back to the highlight on Saturday. So I was at London Bridge Station getting tickets to go to Sevenoaks when two lovely girls stopped me and told me they loved & read my blog! That put a huge smile on my face which lasted the entire weekend! You were the first to recognize me! I was stunned! Anyways. I just wanted to thank you readers who made my face go from….

….aka….not good…to

…better!

Anyways. I’m heading for the gym soon! Going for a big session today! Have a good one everybody!

Good Morning Folks! How do we feel about the word ‘folks’? It makes me laugh! There’s this guy at work that uses the word folks for EVERYTHING without fail.

– Evening Folks
– How are we doing Folks
– Where are you going Folks
– That’s all folks.

Seriously. All I hear is folks, folks, folks, folks, folks. Well. In hour to him I’ll say, have a good Friday folks! Btw. If you need a good laugh make sure you see the friends episode the one with all the Wedding Dresses. You know when Chandler says WHUPAAHHHH as whipped. Its H.I.L.A.R.I.O.U.S!

Chandler: Oh, she’s got you running errands, you know, picking up wedding dresses… Wah-pah!
Ross: What’s wah-pah?
Chandler: You know, whipped. Wah-pah!
Joey: That’s not whipped. Whipped is wh-tcssh!
Chandler: That’s what I did. Wah-pah!
Joey: You can’t do anything!

GOOD MORNING! How are you? This morning I have been fighting with company after company. Don’t you just HATE it when they say “It’s all stated in your terms & conditions”? Fuck off. Nobody reads the terms & conditions anyway. Ahhhhhh. God I hate companies. I do. I swear. The other day I wanted to cancel my O2 (phone) contract as I’m leaving for Tokyo and won’t need it when I’m down there. So. I called them up and simply asked to cancel making it effective on the 23rd of August and got the following response:

– You need to cancel giving us at least 30 days notification.
Me: Well it’s the 5th of July today so that’s more then 30 days until I need the cancellation. Could you cancel this or do I have to speak to somebody else?
– Why are you leaving us? (he also expressed his sadness for me, his most valued customer leaving….blaahhhhhhhhh….what COMPLETE utter BULLSHIT!)
Me: Because I am going to Tokyo.
– When are you going to Tokyo? (Why the fuck do you need to know?)
Me: Mid August.
– Oh ok. I will cancel it for you then. Are you sure you don’t want to change over to pay as you go instead.
Me: (On the verge of bursting into flames) No.

Jeeeeeeeeeezus Christ! They could have made that SO much easier. But. NO! Not possible. Did I mention that I had to be transferred TWICE before this conversation occurred and explain what I wanted to do!! Argh! Insurance companies are the WORST though. BUT. I will have a rant at those another time. I believe I have made my point now!

Anyways. On to something more joyful! SHOES! ME LOVE SHOES! Seriously. I am obsessed with shoes. These are some of my favorite babies, however, I have more (Yes, I’m obsessed!)….

I believe my favorite pair of them ALL are my Dior feather heels. They are literally me in shoe: CC: Crazy & Chic. Anyways. Which ones are your favorite? Do any of you guys use Photoshop and then convert it into a JPEG format so that you can upload it to your WordPress blog? I do. And I find that it damages the quality severely, any ideas on how to fix that?

GOOD MORNING! It’s yet another Monday! It’s time to be productive, eat healthy, go the gym and yatayatayata. You know the drill! My weekend was Fantastic (notice the capital F!). On Saturday we started the day with breakfast at the Ritz, followed by some shopping (show you tomorrow), followed by some chocolates (diet went to shit) and finally a lovely dinner at Langan’s. L.O.V.E that place! Sunday we went to Sevenoaks for what we thought would simply be a lunch. It was not. It was a feast! Seriously! Mussels, lamb, parsnips, roasted potatoes, vedgetables, crème brûlée, raspberries, cream, profiteroles, meringue; the lot! So GOOD! I’ve just got back from the gym now and my weekly goal is 37 km! Hopefully will go smoothly! Happy Monday Everybody!

D.E.A.L Breakers.

Morning guys! How’s it going? I’ve just had an omelet for breakfast and I’m soon heading for the gym to complete my 35 km goal of this week! I feel VERY up for exercising at the moment so I might even add a little run before we have breakfast at the Ritz at 9 tomorrow morning! YYEEEYYY!!! It’s going to be one of those P.E.R.F.E.C.T lazy days. HUGE breakfast! Then strolling around doinggodknowswhat and then going home and changing and getting ready for a lovely dinner out! GOOD DAY huh?

Anyways. So. Topic of the day is DEALBREAKERS! We ALL have them right?! Or maybe it’s just me, but I have several.

Numero uno is the classic Socks in Sandals. Does anybody DO that anymore? I fuckin’ hope not as I can assure you (speaking to all men out there), it is NOT, repeat NOT, attractive! I don’t care if you get blisters without them. Wear plasters or something, anything, just no socks in sandals please. Stop this visual pollution! NOW! OK?! HEAR ME?!

Numero deux (sorry for speaking spench aka spanish and french) ….isss……drumroooll please. PIERCINGS! I have a MASSIVE dislike for men with piercings. Especially eyebrow piercings. So please don’t get one. Now this is where my boyfriend and I disagree massively. He HAD one when I met him. I simply told him that I thought it looked horrible on him so he removed it. Now he claims. “Nonononono I removed it because I got sick of it or something” Afraid to admit the truth are we Nigel? Ha! MEN! Anyways. Apart from ear piercings so that you can wear gorgeous earrings…I just think it’s a waste of money. Simple as!

{Yes Nigel….the piercings really ADD to her look RIGHT?!?!?}

Number three is men who are like this:

SO UNATTRACTIVE! JUST DON’T DO IT MMMMKAY?

Now. Over to number FOUR. Smmmmoookkkeerrrsssss. That gets a big fat NO from me. Firstly, I don’t want to date anybody who will potentially die 20 years before me. And I would also prefer it if my boyfriend wasn’t smelly and didn’t make my clothes smell. Cigars every ones in a while is OK. But smoking to me personally is a big fat no. Hate the smell, Hate what it does to the body, just generally HATE IT. Also. It’s very expensive which means that he will have less money to spend on me. Which is not good in ANY way! So just QUIT!

Number five. LAST BUT NOT LEAST IS…….GOLDEN CHAINS! I HATE them! HATE HATE HATE them! I think they are simply hideous! WHY? WHY? WHY? Would you do that to yourself. It doesn’t make you G or snoopdogg mmkay? This is what you look like…

….to put it mildly. It AINT good! I’m sure MidLifeRocks. But you ain’t rocking looking like that! So just DONT DO IT! Sell the chain and buy a lovely girl a drink instead (who will be interested in you WITHOUT the chain!).

So guys. There’s my little list for you. I do have plenty more where that come from! I have been selective from birth. Simple as! Anyways. I now want to know what makes you give certain men a big fat NO?

I WANT THIS BAG! NOW! Nigel, Dad, Brother, anybody who loves me who have 10 000 pounds to spare? Hmm…Think realistic Guro…..It ain’t happening, at least not anytime soon. Maybe one day! For now as I’m writing to you I have lowcarb meringues chillin’ in the oven and they’ll hopefully be done soon! Then I’m going to combine them with some mascarpone chesese, whipped cream & lemon. Oooor maybe I’ll buy some raspberries?…and some chocolates? Who knows! Have a good one guys!
