Birthdays galore!

Currently sitting in piles of mess as Sam is clearing his collection of hoarded  crap out so I can have a little more space for all my 'important' crap. Ain't he nice? I feel like the the evenings/ days/ weeks are flying by at the moment once I get in from work, we have tea, sort bits and bobs out, clean it's gone 10 already :(

This weekend has been rather busy. It began with a pub crawl on Friday which I failed at as I was really sleepy. On Saturday we headed to Spalding to stay with Sam's parents for his dad's birthday, we went out for a lovely Italian and left on Sunday full up with home cooked roast nom! Sunday ended with tea and cake to celebrate Raoul's birthday back in Sheffield.

Am very much looking forward to a relaxed weekend back in Stafford this weekend and also I'm looking forward to seeing Sezzabell and Lis for s few drinks!

2011 Goals

I would love to have all of the following things strike though by the end of twenty eleven.

• Progress in the job I have now if a design job doesn't come my way
• Get a design job 
• Learn to drive
• Pay off my remaining overdraft (hopefully I will have this done in 3 months or so)
• Buy a better camera ( Nikon 5000 or 3100)
• Continue with my photography - do some freelance work
• Go on holiday with Sam :)

That's about it really, I could go on but I want something realistic to aim for :)

Up north

So I am now living up north in sunny Sheffield with Sam for now and the not so distant future, this makes me content as it feels like a second home anyway :) I will miss being in Stafford to an extent, my family, seeing my friends and I will miss all the luxury's of living at home, but I enjoy fending for myself these days so I am going to enjoy the freedom I have missed from being away at uni.

I started my new job on Tuesday which was a little daunting at first but so far so good, everybody seems lovely and the work seems a lot more relaxed than the work load of my last position so hopefully I will continue to feel the same and not get bored of it!
