Happy birthday to me

Today I turn 25. I have absolutely no plans to grow up though. 25 sounds like a grown up age, however I will prove that it is not, even though I am currently buying a house, which is another very grown up thing to do.

I hope you're all having a good day. I am. I baked two cakes last night, and made chocolate rice crispy cakes, and chocolate tiffin (thanks for the receipe Carole!) and it tastes good! Yum. I wish I could share this experience via blog, but I don't think it's possible. Yet.

Have a good day! :)

Nikkor 50mm f1.8

I am very excited today as the lens I ordered last week for my camera should arrive! Just in time for my birthday (a little pressie for myself) and my weekend away in the Lakes! Brilliant! That is keeping me going today as otherwise I'm really fed up with work and want to say something to the people who are annoying me, but I don't want to cause bad feelings between us all as we do have to work together. Oh well. Looking forward to my lens arriving! :)

Redder than Red

I don't know if it is just me that does this, and whether I am alone in the world in my utter embrassment, but I've just realised, two days after doing something I thought I should be doing, that in fact I was wrong. This is not like it was something nobody else would notice. The entire company I work for was informed, by me, that I did this and I've only just realised this. I have been walking around for two days without realising that I have made a (if only slight) fool of myself. Oh man I feel like my face is burning up and that I in fact match (no, clash) with the bright red mug I am drinking out of.

Nobody has mentioned anything to me. Perhaps nobody noticed, or at least took any notice. However I feel like you do when you're a teenager and you have to go to school with a really huge spot on the end of your nose. EVERYBODY is looking at you. That's just how I feel today.

My own fault for being too efficient. oh man. I really want to crawl into a hole and never get out.

I'm now really glad that in 6 months I get to leave this place. It really can't come quick enough.

Fancy colours and all

I've been pretty bored today, no systems have been running today at work so I've spent most of my day reading other people's blog. It's really interesting looking into someone's world when they are miles away and you've never even met them. I find myself wanting to write more often. I also want to write about things of more consequence.

Faye asked me today when I'd be writing more short stories, this was in relation to a Open University course I did last year on creative writing. I was writing all sorts of things all the time, and now I feel stifled and un-inspired. I feel really sad when I think about it, as I had so much fun writing, but I need some kind of inspiration to get started. Today has enabled me to think.

I feel inspired. The need to be creative is iching inside of me. I need to find some kind of out pouring of all sorts of thoughts and I think writing some short stories will help. It gives me a buzz just to think about writing again!

The initial point of this post was to make a point of the fancy new colours I chose for my blog! I hope you like.
