So much to share today...Why?

Family stuff )

So as I said before, I've been promoted and with that comes a new uniform. I now have to wear a black blouse instead of the disgusting blue sack. Yeah, trying to find a Plain black blouse in a size 8 that isn't linen in Aberdeen is actually impossible. I ended up with a size 10, but it's better than nothing. Especially since Leanne was wearing a blouse her very next shift. And I got new work shoes too. My big and baby toes were starting to stick out of my last pair.

Speak of shoes I wore these so much I made penny sized hole in the sole. (oh my beloved teaparties) I finally took them to the cobbeller today. To get them re-heeled is £8.95 and to re-sole them is £14.95. That's almost the cost of a new pair. But they're doing a special, get them re-soled and they get re-heeled for free. Yay!

I got my invoice from Qcute for my shoes (paid!), all my Loli purchases are in the Celga warehouse and I got the invoice for my item in the Anna House GO (paying Tues). So thank goodness I'll have some more storage space.

ooooooh epic wantings

Wow! Five days already huh?
My week in a rundown:
Mon: worked in golf.
Tues: Supposed to be my day off, but due to lack of staff, I had to come in and cook for a party. I was exhausted by the time I got to class and then discovered I didn't have half my materials with me (including paper). I was so tired I decided to get the bus to Tilly instead of walking. (And heck, you'll never guess!) Max from class, the guy I've been accidentally stalking, appeared at the bus stop. Turns out he lives in the nicer part of Tillydrone (yes, there is a nicer part).
wed: work again. OMG! people and lost property. Sorry, But you're the Jackass that didn't look after your shit, don't start ranting at me cos it hasn't been handed in.
Thurs: This was interesting. Tillydrone has like a mini town centre. All it's missing is clothes shops. There's a farmfoods, iceland, chalmer's baker, TSB, Clydesdale, Bank of Scotland, Loyds pharmacy, Pound stretcher and an Au Naturale. Pound stretcher btw now stocks all the unsold stock from Woolworths. I got a Woolies iron. How grown up of me to buy an iron and get excited about it lol.

And then today: Meh same old.

In my last entry I mention my new addiction to Xsparkage's blog. It's opened me up to a whole new world of make-up for me, and I already have an epic wants list. One of the company's I've been hearing a lot about is Coastal scents. So I went to coastalscents.com to have a peek. By Gosh I'm in love:
coastal scents )
I found out how much is on my credit card, Current credit available is £321. Enough to pay my shoe order but not celga. So next pay I'll be getting the custom cardigans up and going, I really need quick cash. Here's hoping people want cute cardis then.

Today was a waste

Today's run down:
I woke up at 8.30am. I text Anna to see if she wanted to meet up. We arranged for 1pm outside the Vue cos she had to go see her Gran. Come 11.30am she text me to ask if I wanted to go eat some place first, that was fine. But I was behind time looking for tights in my parents house (nightmare), so I called her to ask if I could meet her outside her Gran's cos I was late. She hadn't even had her shower yet, so we agreed to meet outside the library at 1pm. SO I'm there, she's not, then she calls me. She's still at home, so I go up to her house to get her.
And you can just tell what happens next.
We get into town rather late and by the time we finish lunch and get to the Vue we've missed the start of all the films and the next showings aren't for another 2-3hrs.
Fuck that Dear!
We go home and we're at mine for like 10min when she gets a call that she has to go visit her Gran. I'm exausted and I get really freaked out by her Gran. So I ain't going.
That took up most of my day.

The last few hours I've been listening to PJ Harvey and knitting. I can't believe it took me so long to finally listen to some PJ Harvey. She's like a mix between Tori Amos, Regina Spektor and Rasputina and I'm loving it. I'm really into the 'Rid of me' album.

I've also been on youtube a lot the last few days watch Xsparkage's channel. Her website (www.xsparkage.com) is addictive too! I've thrown a lot of my make-up out cos, I'd had it for over 4yrs. And for things like lipgloss, eye linner, mascara and foundation, that's pretty gross. And after watching Leesha's channel and reading the blog, I've just been so inspired. I actually wore some make-up today that wasn't just foundation and eye liner. It's introducing me to a whole new world of self expression.

Also before I go Random Thought:
I've been wanting pastel coloured cardigans for ages but I can't find anywhere that makes them in a colour other than Pink. So I've began knitting my own. I was wondering if anyone would be interested in comissioning cardigans.
It would be a flat fee of £30. Available in white, baby: pink, blue, lilac, yellow and mint. You could also choose between 4ply, Double knit and mother pearl double knit (which has a strand of silvery ply running through)
Estimated prodution time is between 24-36hrs of work.
If you might be interested let me know, and I'll make an official sales post on the sales comm.

Anyways It's Joanna's second last day tomorrow Yay!
