I'll be 34 next week, I wish I was 27. 34 seems so old... like I should be something that I'll never become no matter how hard I try.
I will never be one of those women who can wear white pants an entire day and they stay white or look cool with shiny hair and even on the hottest days of summer. My skin gets shiny when it's hot outside and my hair is frizzy and my jeans are no longer white after 5 mns away from my house...
34 is food shopping once a week at the supermarket - in my fridge you'll find old sallad, booze and eggs.
34 is a healthy dinner with significant other and friends and their significant others while discussing the latest news - I party and find jokes about sex hilarious.
34 is career, a well paid job and financial security - I have a shit job that barely pays my bills and no money left on the 20th each month.
But I like my life. So, yes I've done some bad choices but I've learned and I have really had a lot of fun.
I have no kids, no coffee machine, no garden, I haven't seen the latest plays or read the latest award winning books but I have a loving partner, great friends, and one room in my apartment has gold colored walls :)
Take care
Love/E

Cleaning out my closet
I made a few descisions:
¤ I am going to leave my job. I will miss the fierce duo J&J but we will try to stay in touch, but that's all I miss. At the moment I miss having a social life and hanging out with friends during the evenings and weekends. This job sometimes has me hating and despicing the human race. Once people get to start drinking their manners are right down the drain.
¤ I am going to get rid of some "friends" who gives me nothing. I don't mind people coming to me for favours, I really do my best to help out when I can, but then I do expect the favours to be returned. When a person who I haven't heard from in ages suddenly turns up and starts requesting stuff from me like we are best friends...And to make matters even worse in this case this is the girl who tried to get Mr S into bed! I konw it won't happen but just the fact that she tried is annoying the hell out of me.
¤ I am going to get rid of some "friends" who can never be happy for me when I'm doing good. Those who always finds some fault in everything.
Hello, smile a bit then life will be better, I promise!
¤ I am going to get rid of "friends" I don't really really like. Why spend time with people I don't enjoy spending time with? This is a bit tricky since some of these people are the significant other of someone I really like.
One of my friends, J, has a new girlfriend (I think she has even moved in with him) and I really think she is strange. She doesn't drink (in my line of work that is quite odd!), I think she has an eating disorder and is quite unstable in general.
J and I used to hang out quite a lot before he met her. Now we haven't seen eachother in ages. I know that she isn't solely to blame for this, we both have been working a lot. He has a fab house a bit outside of town and we used to go there for casual dinners just a few of us and drink wine, watch movies and just have fun. Haven't been there since last summer.
¤ I am going to get myself back in shape. So today I am going for a run! Or a quick walk I haven't decided yet. I'm going to try to do some physical activity 3 times a week and ride my bike to and from work.
Have been working with Mr S on m CV and it has turned out really well. I have a fierce degree in Criminology that has given me nothing but debts but I had a lot of fun at the university. Now I owe the government some 13.000 euros....
Yesterday Mr S and I celebrated our first year together. I have really never done that before in any realtionship I've been in so it was a new experience. We both had a day of from work so we had a nice breakfast in bed, hen in to town and did some shopping. And then we went to the movies (Spiderman III 2/5) and then dinner. We spent the weekend at Gimo mansion. The place was really nice but the food wasn't all that good. The waitor only turned to Mr S while he presented tho food and the wine. I guess it's a mans world. The last bottle he placed next to me since "I notice that you also seemed interested in wine". Hello, I do what you do 10 times as good!
They had a pool table so we played some. I haven't played since I lived in France but I did quite good. Won a few and lost a few.
Wedding updates:
Mommie dearest obviously told everyone in my family that I'm getting hitched so now they all expect an invitation: my boring cousins and their boring girlfriends and screaming kids. It won't happen! We (or I) decided to keep the wedding child free, no one under the legal drinking age gets invited. I know that this will offend some but that is the way it is.
Take care
