Am i worried....not a bit! So looking forward to it....


I am going to a music festival with friends a couple of weeks after my birthday...a weekend of music, friends and beer...what more could a girl ask for? Ok so a shower and the sun would be lovely too lol!


The week before my birthday I am thinking of walking the West Highland Way...95 miles from Glasgow to Fort William. I plan to raise money for charity while doing it too. My parents have always wanted to walk the WHW too so it will be something we can do as a family :) Hopefully I'll live to tell the tale lol.

But apart from all this celebrating I have still my list to complete! I forget what I have achieved and what there is still to do....so lets have another lookie...

So I still have 19 things to do eeeek!!!!

Right I want to learn Italian as would love to tour round there one day (I have to stop booking other holidays first lol). So plan is to download some podcasts onto my ipod and get learning! Thats tonights job!

The swimathon is in March. I have 2 1/2 months of training. This weekend I have to get my bum into a swimsuit and get some swimming done! (it will also help with number 5).

I have picked a tattoo that I like...it's stars which cascade down my back aka like Rhianna's one...now I have to get a free weekend to get it done!

I need to look into flying lessons too (eeek I really dont like heights!)

And the outside walking/ cycling ones will have to wait till it's warmer lol.

Right I have a plan of action and now feel at least a little bit more organised! Better get cracking!

MIA...

I apologise I have been missing in action for a while...to be fair I was on holiday to the Dominican for my cousins wedding so of course the beach and the bar was definately top priority over blogging...but you have my undivided attention again (Lucky you!)

My holiday was fabulous, 2 weeks of sun, sea, sand and as much beer/rum/ food as a person could handle. All my family were there to celebrate my cousins wedding which was a lovely day. The bride had on a gown made of lace, the groom in a new wedding suit and looking a little hot around the collar with the sun shinning down on him. The bridesmade (also my cousin) dressed in a floaty teal dress and the flower girl in matching colours. Everyone looked stunning! And being traditional Scots we showed the dominicans how a wedding should be celebrated and partied the night away :) Hopefully I have made life long friends with people who live thousands of miles away...a great excuse for more holidaying woohoo!

So now I am back to reality with a bump and a cold too since Scotland is freezing this time of year! Brrrrr!

Roll on the next holiday I say...which just happens to be Vegas in February woohoo!
