Sorry about my recent lack of postage, but I literally have been up to my knickers lately between my new job, leaving cert results and CAO offers...and maybe a drink or two in between!
Although I did a good leaving cert and was delighted with my points, unfortunately, I missed out on my college place by one grade in English! However, being the glass-half-full kind of girl that I am, I've decided to go with my second choice (journalism in DIT).
And what's being a journalism student, in the big smoke, without a KILLER wardrobe to complete the look?
So here it is,

Confession time... I still haven't joined the gym, or lost a morsel of weight since my "200 views" post! ☹ However, I have invested in, what is now, my bible; RUN FAT B!TCH RUN, by Ruth Field.
As someone who detests the very essence of running, even I cannot reccomend this book more. With the grit doctor by my side, today was my second outing of step one to becomming a runner.
Who is the grit doctor I hear you ask?
"I am the grit doctor. I am a ruthless, no-nonsense motivator who will force you to do the things you don't want to do. I will whisper you fat bitch when you are contemplating one more roast potato"
Everyone has a grit doctor, or rather, their "inner bitch" (mine is called Cheryl!). The aim? To befriend your inner bitch.
Step one involves choosing what is know as a 'circuit'. A walk that begins and ends at your front door, which is roughly 3-4 miles long. It's very important that your circuit is somewhere nice, safe, and somewhere you won't get board of.
Here is my circuit...
Hopefully some of you are lucky enough to live in the countryside like I do, however if not, choose a local park.
I also think it's important to have some inspiration. Here's mine:
"Believe me when I say that we all have an inner bitch - in fact, I'd go as far as to argue it's what makes us human"
Hence, my inner bitch being, so appropriately named, Cheryl!
Find your inner bitch girls and best of luck future runners!
So waking up saturday morning, realising (after a long week of work, may I add) that I had totally forgotten my friday boogie I have now decided to call it "boogie of the week" And here it is! So grab an issue of look magazine, a mojito, and head outside to bask in this lovley weather (while it lasts!)
Angus and Julia Stone - You're the one that I want
So! I started a new job today. From Ireland's ultimate debutantte to....a waste disposal plant? It's true! But I'm working in an office so it's all good! :) Got the job through my cousin, just filling in for 4 or 5 weeks until I start collage. To celebrate, I rewarded myself with this gorgeous parka courtesy of E-Bay!
Can't wait for it to arrive. Perfect for (an irish) summer over a pair of shorts and tights as above, or with skinny jeans and heels for a day in town with the girls.
NEXT WEEKS WAGES...
Decided to start up "my friday boogie" ..(stole the idea from a friend) so here it is! Get your dancing shoes on and enjoy the long weekend! Oh and any requests, just halla! <3
