Alright... I'm gunna start this up again...

"This is an invocation for new beginings..." - Ze Frank... Check him out... he's great.

Alright, so I currently have a lot of things going on right now. Here's a low down of my life at current...

  1. wedding planning
  2. theory revision
  3. applications
  4. moving arrangements
  5. mega-diet
  6. upkeeping the rest of my general mad life
So yeah... It's been so long I just thought I'd update you all as to what's going on. It'ss be boring and tedious, but it's kinda necessary before I can get back to the strange and ridiculous bits of life... So imma just go through them one at a time so we're all on the same page...

The wedding!!!!


Alright... so when we left off I was an engaged student struggling through student life and my final degree year with no idea when I would actually get married.

Well, I got a first class degree (just!) and now, after some settling time it's happening! And soon at that. August 16th this year I will become a married woman! So that's a thing. But now myt entire life is about lists, spreadsheets, emails emails emails, creature making as favours, center piece making, bouqet making, coordinating and endless endless other wedmin junk. AAAAAH!!

Needless to say, the very thought of it all is stress enducing. But it'll get there... 38 days left... holy jeebus!!

Theory Revision


So I finally started my driving lessons, and have apparently been doing quite well. It is one of the few things in life that appears to come quite naturally to me... yay!! So I've booked my theory test for the 28th of july... 19 days to revise!!


Applications


So, I was working at a school as long term agebcy staff for the last academic year. However, they totally ballsed their budget, and so just 4 weeks before the end of term, the school had to let the rest of the agency staff go because they just couldn't afford to have all the staff. Kinda sucks, but I've got a lot on my plate right now anyway. But it now means its even more important I'm working in OXfordshire as soon as I move there really (yeah... I'll explain why there in the next one). I absolutely hate how ridiculous the application process has become. It used to be send a CV, and sometimes a covering letter too. Now you have to register to a site, which takes like half an hour, and then fill the massive application form, then answer all these massive questions... write a specific personal statement... YAWN! Each application  takes like two hours at least... it's tiering and impossibe to do more than 3 a day without killing yourself!

Moving Prep


Yeah. Moving. So Nathan (that man I happen to be marrying) got the perfect job for him at the begining of this year, after a long tiering search. The only catch was it was in Abingdon, Oxfordshire! But he was brave and took it, and moved up there all alone! Not only does this mean we're back to a uni type seeing timetable (actually, it's less than then... every other weekend) but it means that I will be moving there after the wedding.

This makes all aplications and potential interviews etc infinately more difficult. Boo!

We are also looking into house options, because there isn't enough space for me and my stuff in his flat at current. and it's an incredibly tedious necessity.

Mega-diet


This is self explainitary. But it's just a bit harder when the stress of everything else and the lack of sleep over worrying makes me want to reach for all the bad things. but i've been pretty strong for a week and a half now... fingers crossed this is all going to work and I won't fold. I just want to start married life a more healthy way. ALL THE FRUIT AND VEG. None of the chocolate :'(


And then there's the rest of my life

Which as you know from previous tales, has a tallent for being infinately curious and ridiculous.

Well, at least I get some laughs from it all, which is what this blog is really about. Now we've got the housekeeping out of the way, let us begin!

Heres to the fun bits that make the rest worth while.

Peace out (Y)
