Posted by sofie!! on September 24, 2007

I’ve got tonnes of packages to post, which I’m hoping to do later today or tomorrow..There’s about..10 I think, all kawaii and organised via swap bot :)

I’ve order lots of new goodies off janetstore.tw.url which should hopefully arrive this week..I hope so, I’m starting to run out of supplies!

I’m staying round my boys tonight, haven’t seen him in a while and I MISS HIM :(

I’ve started a new Hello Kitty swap on swapbot, the first one went really well and a few people messaged me asking to start a new one.

I’ve got a two hour driving lesson tomorrow…Ohhh it’s my theory test on monday, eek I better start practicing!

Maybe she’s born with it…

Posted by sofie!! on September 2, 2007

I haven’t written a blog for some time now.

I’m a bad blog writer :/

I’ve been doing lots of swaps recently :) Got quite a few to send out :) I received some too, lots of hello kitty stuff! I love getting things in the post so much.

I really love my job. I was on the returns desk yesterday, it was really good, it was nice to be on there for a change. It’s a lot calmer than the tills, but I do love being on the tills.

Tess is really lovely to me, she’s so genuine and sweet to me. I’ve made lots of really good friends at B&Q :) I’m so blinkin’ happy with everything in my life..maybe not driving..I sometimes think I;m never going to sodding pass. I failed my theory the other week, by one point! I had to get 30/35 to pass and I got 29!! I was bloody gutted! SO I’ve got another one this monday, they’ve changed it now though so I have to get 43/50 to pass! I bloody hope I do!

My instructor reckons I’ll pass by christmas but I don’t know..well actually thats like 4 months away, so maybe I will..!

I went shopping with jasmine today, and gots lots of nice things :) she’s lovely :)

Sencer’s staying round mine later on in the week, I miss him!

Bonjourno!

Posted by sofie!! on August 21, 2007

I had such a lovely time in Paris wiht my bo, he really looked after me:)

We visited all the tourist attractions; the lourve gardens, the eiffel tower, the arc de triomphe, the sacre coeur, the champs elysees, monte martre, notre dame etc!

It was perfect, the weather was lovely, we were really lucky!

Our hotel was really nice too :) It was in a nice location, not far from the notre dame!

I really enjoyed getting the metro everywhere, it’s so fast and easy. I wish there was an underground service in Norfolk!

The eurostar was brilliant. It was so smooth and quiet! We were in France within half and hour,it’s so fast! I slept most of the way there & back though!

Me & Spence are already planning our next holiday to Paris & many other places :D

I’ve just painted my nails blue, and my toe nails yellow, cool hey! ;)

Hopefully some DVDs should arrive tomorrow, I’m so bored today!

I had a driving lesson a little while ago and it went really well, my instructor says I’ll have passed by christmas!

My theory test is this Friday, weeek. I hope I pass!

My boyfriend is round, and he’s sitting on the floor playing on my nintendo DS.

So i’m browsing the web for SWAPS..Bascially you put together a little package and send it to someone and they you one back! Like a swap! There are different types of swaps, like Kawaii, which is just cute japanese stuff, craft swaps, where you send something you’ve made yourself, colour themed swaps, letter swaps, postards..etc! So I’m just signing up to some and finding out the requirement, like what I need to send etc!!

My passport arrived today! After just over a week of sending it off!! Not bad hey! I’m so suprised at how quickly it came, but so pleased! this means me&spencer can book our holiday to Paris up asap! We’re going to fly there now, as it’s a lot cheaper! For 4 nights it’s only about £220! Bargain! So I’ll have plenty of money to spend spend spend when we get there! I can’t wait, it’s going to be so fun and romantic hehe! Spencer knows all the good places to go, he can be my tour guide! I’ve got to look after him on the plane apparantly, he doesn’t like flying! But niether do I!

Okay Spencer’s bored…he wants to watch a film..I’ve told him to go have a look at my DVDs and find one he likes..

Okay now he’s getting impatient, I have to go!

So now I’m huuungry..and fancy pizza but can’t have any. Dammmmit. I did think about ringin up to order…but then realised they don’t deliver here anyway! Dammit, if only I could drive I could go and pick the order up!

If you’re happy and you know it clap your hands.

Posted by sofie!! on July 1, 2007

I got paid £422 (after tax) on friday , so me and Jasmine went for a little shopping spree yesterday! I didn’t go mad, I got lots of bargains and things I needed.

I got some more wool and needles for crocheting. I got some Big Wool in brown and cream and some 5.5 mm and 7mm needles to make a nice blanket with!!

I’m also going to start designing my own latch hooking patterns and make them. It’s easy peasy. I just need to get some wool and a big pen and some canvas stuff, then i’m well away. I might do some little skulls, as the pirate theme is quite popular atm. and..some flowers or something? maybe a mario or cup cake! :)

I had my first driving lesson with my lady instructor on wednesday, and it went really well!!! :) I’ve been practising everyday since and I don’t have another lesson till next week as she’s on hol this week! But it’s going really well and she says I might be able to pass in around 25 lessons if I keep practising with my Dad!

Spencer had his first lesson onfriday too which went really well. He’s really enjoyingit I think!

He’s also got a job interview at this dog shelter place near him which pays a lot more than where he is atm! They only pay him £4, which is terrible considering he’s been there for over a year and is very good at his job and is always getting praise from the customers! I hope he gets this job :)

He finishes college this, yay! I get to spend a lot more time with him at last! I haven’t seen him for ages!

I had my appraisal at work on friday,which went really really well. My manger, Ian says I’m getting on really well and I’m a very well liked member of the team :) He says I can work my way up to the second level now :) So I’ve just got to cpmplete some training on the returns desk, meet and greet and telephones. I’ve already done the telephones, which was scary at first, as I hate speaking on the phone! but it was okay :)

So work’s going really really well :) I’m really enjoying it. I’m doing over time this week and working 6 days in a  row! More money!!

It’s the princess diana memorial concert today, jasmines going, the lucky cow! There are so many of my favourite bands/artists playing!I shall be watching it with jealousy later on today! :)

Anyway I think I’m going to get on with my blanket and draw some latch hook designs!
