I have just noticed that The Ginganinja Diaries and Delicious Words have had more than one thousand viewers each!!! I just want to say thank you very much for reading, and I hope you enjoy. I realise I have been a little absent, which I apologise for, but unfortunately life gets in the way.
So unfortunately for me as of Christmas my dreams of being a ballerina have been taken away…ok I know that someone my age cant just become a ballerina by taking a one hour class once a week and hardly ever turning up…but you know what I mean. The class I take has finished, due to the ill-treatment of our teacher. This just makes me sad. The studio have another teacher doing a ballet class, but I am refusing to join, out of protest, and I've had a class by this other teacher and she's like a robot…..no imagination what so ever! So, the below photo will not be me any time soon…
Now, however, I am hooked on the Winter Olympic! I just love it, and have even found myself very interested in the Slopestyle snowboarding event. Not that I've ever snowboarded in my life, but thats not the point is it. And of course our first GB medalist Miss Jenny Jones! Well done to you! First Brit to win an olympic medal on snow, cause of course we don't have much of it where we are. Especially not this winter, its all rain and clouds here. Now of course, I'm watching the Team Event Figure Skating. Something I have actually done, until they realised I was far too afraid of falling on my face on ice…. I mean really, who would want to fall over, I was happy on two feet! But anyway, I just love the figure skating, its just so elegant, I wish I could do something like that. I did used to have a pair of skates from our time in the states, beautiful white ones. I'm looking forward to the ladies event to see team GB's Jenna McCorkell, and Italy's Carolina Kostner, who I remember seeing at the Turin Olympics, for some reason I thought she was old then, perhaps because she wasn't a teenager.
Thirdly, I have recently become addicted to Revenge, the American TV show. And I'm now dreaming of living in the Hamptons with a labrador…although without the murder would be good. But really the clothes, the lifestyle, do these people actually work or do they just have luncheon all the time?
Also, it is again almost that time of year. Yes I'm talking about the Hallmark Holiday which is Valentines day! For those of you that apparently dont know how to tell your boyfriend/girlfriend/parter/spouse/whatever that you love them, this holiday is for you. For the rest of us in the world that say that on a regular basis, this day is supposed to be one where we can tell the world to go away and spend time with that person. Please remember gifts/card/flowers/whatever ARE NOT THE POINT OF THIS HOLIDAY, as we are made to believe thanks to Hallmark! And to those of you that think it is, please get a clue and stop wasting your partners money!
So news from me. As I believe I've already mentioned, I am stuck at home, finished my Masters, but still looking for the perfect job. Although I seem to be finding I'm not quite qualified for the 'perfect' job, but we'll see what I can do about that ;). I've had a lovely christmas holiday with my family on a sunny island in the South Pacific, somewhere I've never been before, and am looking forward to returning to that side of the world. I've got my sights set on New Zealand, although mainly so I can go to Hobbiton, because I am super cool. Although really, what I've seen of New Zealand on TV looks beautiful. This is of course after my trip to the US of A this summer, which me and my boyfriend are looking forward to, but still need to book.
Also, while I remember, if any of you reading this happen to be Polish, or speak Polish, one of my friends is a writer of poetry and prose. So please take a look at her work. I know my Polish (literally two words) isn't good enough, but I've heard its good. https://www.facebook.com/celebrytka.poezja.1?fref=ts her name is Agnieszka Danuta Grzekowicz. I hope you enjoy.
So thats it from me for now. I hope you enjoyed and you come back to read more of my life and ramblings.
I hope you all enjoy the winter olympics, I'm here cheering on team GB!
