went to see reel big fish (again!) and as per usual it was ace! Never danced so much at a gig in my life, ever! I went with Cath and Sarah (housemates) and i think they were close to dissowning me! i danced solidly for 1and a half hours, it was so much better than a work out at the gym! it was at the Mean Fiddler, just off Tottenham Court Road and was a really good venue, really liked it. Not really got much more to say, but i knew the gig would be good cos-1. it was reel big fish and 2. they started off with 'dateless losers'! my favourite song! Rarrrrr! Im aching so much now, really sore, every step i took afterward hurt but it was worth it! woot woot! EVERYBODY'S DOING THE FISH!! i was pretty impressed with this photo from my mobile! not bad eh?! what a good start to the bank holiday weekend! :-) one last thing, heres the thing youve all been waiting for...........................a picture of my desk!!!!!!!!

Holds British record for fastest capture of Golden Snitch during game: three and a half seconds. This happened in 1921 and the move he used to make the catch is now called the Plumpton Pass ( fw71 , QA10 ). does that mean ive got wizzarding blood runniing thru me! ooh im excited now!! xx

Im making button cards at work today. Its like when I used to go round to aunty joan’s house (not really my aunty just friend o’family!! ;-)) and I used to sit on her floor with all these buttons everywhere and sort them! Basically im getting paid for doing exactly the same thing now as I did for fun when I was about 3 years old!! Hehe ah I love being a designer!! Im really addicted to myspace at the mo! I cant believe how much time im spending on it on a day to day basis!! Its crazy! I keep trying to stop myself but I keep checking all the time to see if someones added me or written a comment! Sad or what?! Ive managed to find some people I haven’t spoken to in years on there tho so its cool! Im on my lunch and ive just had a jaffa cake muller yoghurt thing. It was really weird but really nice at the same time! (random fact for you there!) Speaking of food, im off out tonight with work for my first grown up work doo! Hehe. We’re off to an India so im pretty happy abou

gym-a-holic (well not quite!) with a bit of randomness thrown in at the end!

Get me eh?! Just got into work after being in the gym at 7:30am! :-S not sure how long this’ll last but I best make the most of it while im still eager to do it! Im going tomorrow as well, this time at 7:00 for my final induction. He seems to be spreading this out quite a lot but hey! Met up with sanj yesterday so I could see him before he heads off to gay paris for work. Was a nice evening, we just went to a bar and met up with some of his mates. Best of luck for the job sanj! While I was on my way into London I saw some random things and a thought some random thoughts: 1.I saw a guy wearing a Hannibal mask while riding a bike thru central London. This really freaked me out cos if you know me you’ll know I really don’t like silence of the lambs!! *shudders* 2.I saw a kid with one of the biggest afros ive seen! Either on a man or a kid! It was huge, he was in a pushchair with his mum and there was a huge mass of sideshow bob-esque hair! Magic! 3.Why does your mouth

master of the 'ouse......

Had a really nice weekend with mum and dad. They came up on Saturday and left on Sunday. On sat we went to see Les Mis and it was magic! So so so good, id recommend it to anyone who hasn’t seen it. The whole thing was brill. I only cried once, I chewed chewing gum for the rest of the time (it stops me crying! Don’t ask how but it does!) soppy cow! At least I wasn’t as bad as the woman infront of us who was properly sobbing! Embarrassing or what?! Hehe. It was really nice to seeMa and Pa. I hadn’t realised how much id missed them, not in a sad way but just how id missed having them around. It made them visiting even more special. J We did a bit of shopping on Sunday and finally got the tv card in my laptop working (after 3 different cards I finally got the right one! Argh!). Parents are useful for somethings eh!! Even if its just a car to drive me to pc world! They left late afternoon and then I spent the rest of the evening calling people to catch up on whats been g

Well im back in the country :-S India was amazing and as soon as I was sitting in a black and yellow taxi (no rikshaws in Mumbai) I felt relaxed and at home (sounds cheesy I know!) not too sure how I could feel relaxed whizzing through the Indian streets but hey! I did! When we got to heathrow before we went for the security check jane and I were pulled over to have a full body scan thingy. Before they could do it tho they had to check I was over 16!! Ok I can understand 18 for drinking, but 16! Come on!! Surely I don’t look that young?! We chillaxed in the ba lounge waiting for our flight and the student in me made the most of the free food and drinks and stashed them away for the flight, at the hotel, etc!! the flight was pretty empty and so jane and I had a few seats each, I watched a few films and slept so not really much to report on the flight. It was very bumpy, though I guess it was because of the monsoon in India. We landed in mubai in the middle of the night so we
