crisp packets always go out of date on a saturday

home, home. i am back from my work trip, and i had such an amazing time. i met some pretty awesome people. it feels weird because we would have to get up super early, then go to work, then come back to the hotel, have dinner, stay up really late hanging out with everyone, then going to bed, and then doing the same all over again the next day....it feels weird because i spent so much time with these people, to not be with them now...its odd. i learnt so much and enjoyed my adventure and i am looking forward to the next new store that will be opening up at the end of august, hopefully i will be able to go. living in a hotel for 11 days is a really weird feeling...yeah my stuff was all over the place, but the room never felt like it was mine. being home..it feels as if i have been away for months. coming home to my room being painted by my mum was a nice surprise. plus awesome amounts of mail. magazines, letters from friends, bills, doctor who live tickets, and a signed photo from Matt smith....fab stuff. oh i missed doctor who last week, but caught up with that, glee and big brother. i loved the doctor who episode with van gogh, oh it was beautiful and made me cry a little. this weeks 'who' was very funny---my favourite part was Matt running around in a towel and did awesome hair in a mess. James corden was kinda funny too, it was a weird episode. oh and i watched the last episode of glee!!!---oooh i nearly cried so many times, i love it so much. i didn't want it to end. i still love Jesse. i loved it when they sang don't stop believing' again...they all sounded amazing.it was weird going back to work...i had missed everyone and it was lovely to see everyone again...but i found out yesterday that they wanna send me to waterlooville in a couple of weeks!---and that will be for two weeks...more hotel food!

ooooh Keane have been added to the Glastonbury line up!!! i have always loved Keane, and it kinda of a dream to see them! i cannot wait for their acoustic set on the Sunday. the high light for me is gonna be broken bells...oh James mercer i love you. plus i kinda wanna see Rolf Harris so i can sing along and dance to 'court of king caractacus'.

i have a couple of days off, so fun times and relaxing, and sleep will be had.

i have post

after work, a hard day at work, while i was in the car, i turned to my mum and said, "did i get any post?"...as all week i have been asking that question. my mum said, YES! i eeked really loud in the car. i got a wonderful package, well a birthday package, from lina!! i jumped around in happiness! i got the coolest bits and pieces. i also wrote letters to a few celebrities and i got a signed photo back from James Buckley..aka jay from the inbetweeners.i cannot wait for doctor who tonight, vampire themed episode tonight. i think i am falling in love with matt smith..haha. hes pretty awesome. plus i think karen gillan is amazing. i am currently: writing letters, making up a package, sending postcards, waiting for doctor who, looking forward to art and doctor who chats tonight, listening to the fruit bats, and catching up with the tv i have missed. i want to exchange art, or do something like that, any ideas??

jump up and down...

i enjoyed my fun filled couple of days with my old friends and my city. it was so weird being back in the place where i had lived for 3 years, it felt odd. i had a weird feeling that i didn't like it, and that i didn't belong there anymore. it was wonderful to catch up. i loved it.

back home, back to work. then find out that i need to take a few days as holiday, so yay, i am on holiday!!!

i am currently: enjoying filling in my 'wreck this journal' book that was recommended by my pen pal Jane. its fab, and you have to basically do what the title says.

ps, i just started up twitter, i have no idea what i am doing, but here goes!!---hehe http://twitter.com/helloitsnicola

why didn't the skeleton go to the new year's eve party?

merry christmas, everyone! :)
i hope you all had a beautiful time at christmas! fun was had in my house. on christmas eve i watched lots of different panto on telly and made cookies with my sister. then i woke up early christmas morning and opened a big stocking left from santa, with lots of goodies. then got dressed and went downstairs and opened presents from my sister and gave presents to my mum and dad. then waited for my nan and grandad to come round. we had lunch while listening to top of the pops at christmas. after lunch we got to open all our presents, and i got some wonderful gifts. one of my amazing presents was my labbit!! i have been looking for one of these for about 2 years!! and i got one for christmas. he is so cute! i have no ideas for a name yet...but he did enjoy my cookies!after a long night of food, doctor who telly special, family, party hats, gifts, board games, chocolate and other fun it was time to go to sleep. when i woke up in the morning it was fun to relax and hang out with my family. then later on in the day we went to my nan and grandad's for boxing day. we had a wonderful dinner and more presents!very odd presents were given to me...and i love it!! haha.

...its a great feeling when you know you are home....although at the moment i am not feeling it. i am going back to work next week which is great..so at the moment i am just hanging about the house. i have been spending alot of time with my sister, which is kinda hard as she works..but i have seen her loads. she is eating these jelly beans, and i hate them...horrible...but they do look lovely, the colours and all.
i have been watching old America's next top model tapes that belong to my sister...that's all i have really been doing today..watching that and looking at cool blogs. oh and checking out what movies are coming out soon. hopefully going out somewhere with my sister as she has the day off...not sure where yet, but it will be nice to get out for a bit.
