5 things I like and perhaps shouldn't

A Greggs veggie pasty - so fine dining doesn’t spring to mind when you think of Greggs, but their veggie pasties are simply divine and I won’t have a bad word said against them.

Reality TV – if you don’t watch a reality TV series, you won’t give two hoots about it and will probably feel superior to those who do. But if you do start watching a series, it’s compulsive viewing. Sad times for me who is HOOKED to Junior Apprentice and Over The Rainbow.

Miley Cyrus’s Party In The USA – her voice is rather good admittedly, but she is Hannah Montana. And Hannah Montana is not for 22-year-olds like myself.

Love handles – I think it’s ’cause I’m a shapeless stick that I think these fatty bits on the waist look lovely and feminine.

Celebrity gossip – you’ve never met these celebrities so who cares what they’re up to? Me, that’s who.

On an entirely different note, check out Dublin car rental services if you're heading to Ireland anytime soon.

Shameless adoration for Sex And The City

Although I concede that the Sex And The City ladies live the most frivolous, shallow and self-absorbed lives, I just love the series and first film.

And now I’m busting with excitement as I am going to a screening of the second movie next week, which means amazing unaffordable outfits and more glamour than you can shake a stick at.

I wonder if there will be a third film - I can’t see female viewers getting bored of Carrie&Co. for the foreseeable future.

Then again, I would have loved a third series of The Office but Ricky Gervais decided against that.

Summer lovin'

I may be speaking/writing to soon, but if the beaming sun outside my window is anything to go by, SUMMER IS HERE! Bring on the barbecues, beach trips and that much anticipated summer holiday!

We British apparently love to chit chat about the weather, so why not dedicate a blog post to this subject?

I’m actually sick of the constant cold that has plagued my life since about this time last year until today. If I migrate, the UK weather may be the deciding factor.

If you’re thinking of going to Ireland over the summer and want Dublin airport car hire services, head to sixt.ie.

My new addiction

Nail varnish. I love the stuff. I suppose it’s better to be addicted to nail varnish than smoking (unless you’re sniffing it). Recently, my nails change colour on a weekly basis. Last week they were pink. This week they’re black which led to kiddies at my little cousin’s birthday party today deciding I was a witch and making plasticine spider rings for me.

Working for a lifestyle magazine means I get to buy some products on the cheap which may be partly responsible for my new nail polish craze.

I wish I could get clothes on the cheap. I really need a new dress.

I think I’m going to check out dresses online at awear.com now.

Long weekend elation

Since having started working 9-5, I have become one of those people who gets deliriously happy when a long weekend, such as this one, comes around.

It seems strange to think that almost a year ago, I was lolling about my much-loved, dilapidated student house, not even knowing when a Bank Holiday was on the horizon.

Those were the days!

The strange thing is that I love my job, but I must enjoy doing absolutely nothing more. We are just animals after all, meant to eat, laze around and make merry.

If you’re stuck for ideas over the next long weekend that comes around, head to Dublin and hire a car.
