So I have a new girlfriend.

Alas, she smokes and drinks more than me. That's about the only thing I dislike about her.

ha ha - maybe she's just nervous.

she pisses you off, drinks shit loads, and smokes?Yay!

Okay - this is gonna be blunt - and you can tell me to fuck off if you want. A lot of people do. tongue

But seriously - there is more to life than having a girlfriend. It's not the be all and end all of things, You don't have to have one if you don't want one. It's not a bad thing being single. You have friends, and other people to spend time with. So that may mean you are alone, but you will never be lonely.

However, I will be the first to admit this - I am biased. I'd rather spend time on my own having fun etc etc - than be forced to spend it wit some arsehole who I I have grown to hate and call my boyfriend. I also would rather wait for someone that I really like - than just end up with someone I 'sort of kinda like, and maybe they will grow on me and that way i won't be alone'. This probably means I will be the crazy cat lady out of the Simpsons when I'm 90. But I plan to have a lot of fun getting there.

But if you do like her a lot, and she makes you happy, and you enjoy spending time with her - then I'm pleased for you. Smoking is ick - but you can look past it if you like them. I'm sure you have some bad habits too. xx

So I'm back from Amsterdam! It was a fantastic weekend, me and Lisa really enjoyed ourselves. We did a lot of walking around but found it pretty easy to find our way around. Unfortunately I didn't get to meet Lavvy which was a bit of a let down. I also found out that Lisa is going to be a Hopeful, which is pretty cool. She...

This weeks plan :-

Monday

Relaxing throughout the day trying not to gorge myself on sugary food and fatty foods. Going out for a drink with a girl in the evening who I know likes me. She's a regular in the pub, so I know her and it's just a drink out. We'll see how it goes, not sure if she's really my 'type' as...

Aw sweet of you to remember! I was supposed to be recovering by now but they moved the date, I go in on the 26th now. So today you're doing nothing,,, hope you're spending the day getting excited about Amsterdam! biggrin x
evilsaint101:
cheers for the heads up on the pen pals group mate, Once I've got myself organised I'll certainly be applying to join it! smile

I'm actually trying to make an attempt at planning to do stuff on my week off - I've pretty much reserved monday and tuesday so that I can doss around the house in my underwear and play lots of xbox. I want to go to London and have a poke around Camden and visit a few museums on wednesday or thursday, and that's about the limit of my plans so far! I need more practise! haha!

Right guys, sorry no photography in this blog!

Ok ok, me and a friend of mine are going away to Amsterdam on the 14th August, and I was just wondering if any of you have been there before. If so, is there any places you'd recommend visiting? Apart from the obvious red light district. If any of you can help me out, or give me...

My brother went to Amsterdam (well hes been a few times) - he and his friend decided to pick a place to stay once they got there. They ended up at this B&B - where they had to literally climb these stairs to the top floor as they were so steep. There was a weird massive blood stain on the floor - which my brother determined someone must have died to leave that much blood. And the shower was a pipe that squirted water out at chest height. My brothers friend took some mushrooms that made everything green, and then he threw up all over the only pair of jeans he had, and carried on wearing them for rest of the long weekend. My brother has epic stories about his times there. They are fairly drug fuelled, so I would be of no help advising where to go in Amsterdam!

Although - I am sure you can visit tulip fields - I don't know if they are in season.

that's sounds like fun

I don't really talk about my health issues as I know there are people in this world that are suffering a lot more than I am, but I'm getting so fed up with something I suffer with.

It's called Neurofibromatosis, if you've not heard of it and you'd like to learn more click on the link above.

So tonight, I get an itch on...

Yeah its part of the reason I rejoined SG, I needed a quiet place to vent! smile
trills:
I have no idea why I clicked the spider link, knowing full well I hate them *shudder*
Sorry to hear about the neurofibromatosis, can't really offer any advice or anecdotes because I haven't been there and it would probably be a tad insulting to assume! I hope things stay level for you though, and you can manage the symptoms.

So yesterday was a rather amazing day, I hung out with a few friends and took 192 photographs.

The Durham Miners' Gala (The Big Meeting or Durham Big Meeting, and pronounced gayla, not garla), held in Durham city, England, is a large annual gathering, on the second Saturday in July, associated with the coal mining heritage (and particularly that of miners' trade unionism) of the...

So today I decided to take my camera out into the garden and I took some photographs of the things I saw.

The images are scaled down, but any feedback on them would be greatly appreciated!

The Sky photographs were taken with a Canon EOS 450D through a Canon EFS 55-250mm 1:4-5.6 IS lens.

The Flower and Insects photographs were taken with a Canon EOS...
