Sensible Sillyness

So I found out that my college cycle was 8.25km, which is pretty cool, you know for my second cycle. I haven’t cycled since, but it’s college time again tomorrow so hopefully if it’s not lashing rain I’ll get to cycle again. 

It was my boyfriends 21st birthday on Saturday, which was totally awesome. It was 80’s themed, and everyone had a great night. I got a pizza, but it was a party, I’m not gonna beat myself up about it.

I was just thinking though, that I’m getting really bored just doing the same thing over and over again. I need something new in my life. I need to go somewhere, or just do anything. I’ve been thinking of trying to get a different job, because I’m always broke. I barely get paid enough to cover petrol and rent for a month, and it’s killing me. I’ve started to feel a bit depressed again because of it, and although I do like where I work, and the kids are fantastic, it just isn’t enough money. But I guess I’m lucky I have a job, so I’m not going to quit anytime soon, unless I definitely get another one lined up. I’ve been thinking of trying to get another part time job, since I don’t work evenings or weekends with this one, then I’ll have more money. Lots to think about.

God wednesdays are so long for me. I have work til 5 and then I have college from 6.30-9.30. Because of this I never usually get to do any exercise on wednesdays, which usually puts me off for the rest of the week. Today i had an idea though, which maybe i should have had sooner, but anyways… i decided to cycle to college. I’m not sure of the exact distance, i’ll update that later. You never realise how hilly a place is until you cycle it though. My second cycle, was pretty ok. Had a few moments where i thought id have to stop and walk, but i managed to keep it going. Still havent had a takeaway (gave them up for lent) and honestly i’m feeling much betteer about myself. Might not have lost much weight, but i definitely feel much healthier in myself. Another success. =)

I’m on tumblr on my 3ds… pretty wierd, but anyways. Didnt get a cycle in today like i had hoped, but i did go shopping with my parents and my sister. My dad bought me a pair of irregular choice shoes which are amazing (pics to come), and then i bought myself jeans and a t–shirt 80’s style to go with the shoes for my boyfriends 21st birthday party on saturday, which is 80’s themed. Borrowing a hair crimper to complete the look. cant wait, it’s going to be awesome. XD. sorry for the lack of capital letters, its way too awkward. thinking of signing up for a 5k run in 5 weeks. pretty big goal, will think it over tonight.

I’ve just decided that I need to go there. I’ve always wanted to travel the world, and it just has to be done. I don’t have the money at the moment, and I’m halfway through getting a qualification in childcare, so the timing isn’t right. I’ve decided that when I’m 24, I’m just going to move to South Africa for a while. It’s 4 years away, which gives me plenty of time to save up, and organise everything I’m going to do. I hope my boyfriend comes with me, because he won’t be happy that I’m going, but I need to do this for me. God, I already cant wait. Going to be the journey of a lifetime.

Just back from my little cycle. Did a 6.2km in around 30 minutes. For my first time cycling in about 8 years, that’s not too bad if I do say so myself. Really happy that I’ve done it now. I hated owning my bike but never ever using it. So thats a 6.2km cycle, along with a 2.8km walk with my mum and dog earlier. Day 1 a complete success. :)

I had another blog, based on fitness etc, but I decided today to just delete it and merge my two blogs. I mean, if I can barely remember to update one, what are the chances of me updating two of them? 

So, I bought a stopwatch, because I’ve decided to try and start running. Theres a mini-marathon that I want to take part in thats happening in July, and I wanna do it. There isn’t really a reason why I shouldn’t, except my own laziness, so my stopwatch is going to be my cure. I got sick of having no way to measure the runs I was doing, so now I’ve a stopwatch, and I can time myself, and start kicking ass.

I walked my dog earlier around the local nature reserve/park, but I think I might go for a cycle now. Haven’t been cycling in months.

I have amazing friends. Guess who got Frank Iero’s guitar plec, and Mikey Way’s bass plec from when they played Oxegen yesterday? I did. XD. And I also got their setlist, all thanks to Stephen Jackson. Only delighted XD XD XD
