It has been almost a month since I was last on my blog, it's disgraceful I know but life has been putting me to the test and had to not a lot of time with the wonderful world of Blogger.
So what's been happening?
Well...Summer has arrived (I think it has anyway) and since everyone has been going on holiday I have been ditched in rainy Edinburgh. However, when we got the odd day of sunshine my fabulous best friend Josie invited a group of us to her house for a wee gathering before everyone went on holiday. The day included drink, a lovely lunch, putting up a tent (well me watching them put up a tent :P) and dancing to dusk. It was a wonderful day and was a great way to start the Summer holidays.
During my time off school, searching for a job has been a main priority but it has been what I would call...."A Diaster!" NO! worse than that. I apply for roughly 30-40 jobs a day and out of the jobs I apply for only 1 person replies on a good day. Employers moan that they want the perfect person for the position at their company and well you are not going to get that my friend. They want experience for a sales assistant...anyone can sell something it's not difficult and plus I have experience and yet no reply. Ugh! I will stop before I say something I shouldn't.
Anyhoo! What I can look forward to is Dublin with my fabby friend Katey and her marvellous parents. They are so good to me I feel part of the family :') We are spending a few days in Dublin and during our stay sightsee the beautiful city and soak up all the history. Also, going to see a Comedy show at the Vodafone Comedy Festival in which we will see Jason Byrne, Omid Djalili and this other guy I can't remember his name. When you go on holiday there are 3 CRITICAL!!! stages you have to go through before you go.
1. Find the right size of suitcase to fit Ryanair's policy (aka the size of a milk bottle).
2. Choose a perfect outfit for everyday reflecting your style, personality and on what the weather will be like.
And finally...
3. Renew your passport and EU insurance card.
All 3 are vitual but 1. and 3. are almost impossible. First of all a note to Ryanair...Stop being assholes and act like a normal airline. Enough said and secondly the price for a passport is ridiculous and thank goodness I don't need another one for 10 years! Over £100 for a new passport and the picture ain't that flattering I look like I'm going to kill someone. Oh the joy of preparing for a holiday. At least I will have a hunk of an Irishman to keep me company ;) Realistically that won't happen but hey a girl can dream. And finally to conclude my rant for this evening I leave you with a quote from the greatest space movie in the world Armageddon:
"Leaving on a jet plane, I don't when I'll be back again [as Ryanair will have to delay my flight by 12 hours and will have to swim home]"
Boom Boom
