Getting into the spirit

Arghhh my internet's been down a couple of days! Very frustrating. Anywho, it's currently up and running and I'm writing this post from my new MacBook Air! (yay) It's so lovely and light. And super fast compared to my old lappy. Very impressed to say the least.

It's taking me forever to transfer all my music and photos over though. I'll be much happier when that's all done :)

This week has flown by! Amongst working, shopping for pressies and having a nice stroll around the Christmas markets (oh and spending forever in the Apple store trying to get served to buy my shiny new MBA!), I can't say I've really done anything productive. 

I intended to take my camera to the markets with me but ended up rushing to leave. I'll probably be back next week though I'd imagine. It's hard to resist. One thing I did learn though was to go on an empty stomach (not full to burst on Nando's). Sausages, crepes, waffles, cookies, macaroons... you name it, they had a stall for it! I did cave into some liquorice, a slight addiction of mine. 

In my mug I had orange punch with rum! (Was supposed to be Jager but they were out) Pretty sickly sweet, but warming which is always good.

I have these pair of tights, which are long over due the time they needed throwing out, but I can't seem to part from them. They're only from Accessorize (I think, maybe in the sale too) and there seems to be no suitable replacement. It's annoying me now! So yeah, ignore the massive ladder in the bottom ;)

Out with the old...

Why is it that we get so attached to material items? It's so ridiculous but it just happens. 2 years ago I got my very first Macbook, but it's come the time that I fancy an upgrade. I feel really sad to part from it even though I'm basically just replacing it. And since they no longer make the iconic white Macbook, I've decided on an Air. Which suits me better and wont give me leg ache after it's been sat on my lap for a while! I had the same feeling when I got rid of my first car (it was REALLY old and didn't run very well, must be a sentimental thing right?)


Time to hit up eBay! Unless anyone wants a new laptop, or knows anyone that does!? It needs a nice loving home! Geez I sound like I'm selling a puppy or something. I also need to get rid of my old camera. Too much to do!

I  recently went with my friend to get her tattoo, which has made me really broody for another! I said to myself when I got my last one over 2 years ago, that that was going to be the last one! I already have 3 (which are all easily hidden) which I know isn't a lot, but I just don't want to end up regretting them as I get older. I'm mulling over it as I have no idea what I would get, but I'm pretty sure I know where I would get it. Either on my ribs, or on the inside of my upper arm. I'll end up looking at designs later I just know it...

This is the last one I got. I have a thing about birds, I just love them.

I've just made spicy butternut squash and sweet potato soup again. I'd make it everyday if it didn't take to long!


Has anyone seen the Carte Noire adverts? Me and a friend keep posting them back and forth on Facebook to each other! This is the latest one I've seen. If only Mr Cool existed in real life aye?
