Tight Jeans

I'm so gutted, I bought a new pair of jeans for the first time in 2 years and they're small. I refuse to return them much to my sister's dismay but I'm not going to exchange to a bigger size and I lose weight and have large skinny jeans. I'm definately going to work my hardest to lose weight as I'm sick and tired of not being able to buy clothes that may not suit me because of my size. I'm not that huge, but It's time for change and hopefully I will lose 2 stone so i'm nice and slender AND can fit in my black skinnies.

Also in general I just want to be healthier and feel healthier. I tried detoxing last year which was going well but as I live at home its hard to keep up with a diet; whilst your family still cook foods you've written off and you don't have a job to keep up with your diet dishes. Although, from sept onwards if I get into my university, I shall be officially clean eating but as of now i'll just cut down my portions and eat less of my current foods and keep up with my water intake.

Apple

Is it wrong for me to fall in love with all things Apple. I'm online 'window' shopping for things I can't afford (iMac) at this current moment in time. I know Apple sell overpriced items but you can't help but fall in love, I still don't want an iPad though. What is it's purpose, someone should really explain it to me as I still have no idea except that it's great to play 'Fruit Ninja' on. I really should get to bed now; as 'window' shopping is not healthy at this current revision period in time.

I've finally finished playing about with my blog. I think this is it, my final layout design for now. It may change over time but i'm happy with the look as its simple and vibrant, just like me :D. I've also created a button so, to any people out there who 'follow' me there you go.

Pre-Course Day

Almost there now, I have a pre-course day coming up July 6th, to prepare myself for nursing and placements. I'm going to be getting health checks and all the other requirements to do with my course. Although I am a bit worried as I donated blood less than four months ago, hopefully this won't affect me, but i'll ask just to make sure. Other than that I have officially finished school and only have to turn up for exams.

Roll on library revision days!!

Three Days

Three days and I finish 6th Form. Three days and I'm Three weeks closer to my exams. Three weeks five days and I cannot wait to be free but then it's all about finding a job. OH the troubles of job hunting. You apply, wait for a reply and 9 times out of 10 nothing. I despise the fact most places ask for experience yet you cannot gain any experience if you have never done that particular job. Training does not take that long and teaching co-workers how to use the till is nothing hard. All I want is a summer job so I can increase my funds for univerisity and feel a lot more secure.

Lion King

Whilst waiting for our tickets for the concert, music was playing in the background and all of a sudden Lion King came on. I love Lion King but this version was so great and unexpected that my friend an I spent the whole of last night searching for it.

Fun but tiring

WOW!! Had fun at RockCorps and received my ticket for the concert. I had to re paint a mural and then if my groups work gets loads of Facebook likes, we can all win Blackberry s. If i win i'll gladly take a BB but I would probably sell it or give it to my sister, and to top it off it was a hot day and the sun was shining, luckily it weren't scorching.

I also met up with a friend and went for a bike ride with my embarrassing crappy bike. I cannot wait until i get a new one but my thighs are on FIRE!! They ache and I don't think we were riding for so long but i'm in pain and I can't wait until it stops. Another good thing is I finally got my new bag and a new pair of navy espadrilles with white dots. Love them.

[Pictures to come]

Orange RockCorps

I'm volunteering for Orange RockCorps on Saturday at a playground. For those who don't know what it is, you join up and give four hours of your time to a RockCorps project in your area and in return you get a ticket to an exclusive gig from big name artists. As of now the line up is Primal Scream, Jessie J and Eliza Doolittle, I hope the other artists lined up are a nice selection too.

ROLL ON JULY 12TH!!

New Phone

I'm way overdue a new phone, I've had the Sony Ericsson W300i since November 09. There was a short while back where this phone failed on me and I had to go against my instincts and buy a temporary replacement. I think it's time for me to move up in the world of smartphones as I've been old far to long, and i'm sick of lugging my iPod, phone and no camera around. I need an all in one.


At the moment i'm thinking of getting the Samsung Galaxy S ii. Although, i'm swaying back to the thought of having an iPhone, this is mostly due to all the apps I can get on apple and all my music is already on iTunes. Both of these are great phones so who knows which one I shall choose.

End of School

YAY!! I have a B in my Media work, that means i'm still on track to getting my B or possibly an A (which I really want) and then i'm saved in Psychology and Sociology. I cannot wait to start university and be on my way to becoming a nurse then a midwife, I have a future to fight for. I'm so excited i'm finish school June 21st and i'm free, Oh how my summer shall be great, driving lessons, new laptop and new stuff for uni, what more could a girl ask for (I have a huge list but I'll stick to the main priorities).

Also it's THREE MONTHS til my 18th, how great. I'll be legal to drink, watch 18 movies, have contracts, buy a house/rent and i'm eating Chinese to celebrate. WOO HOO!! Another milestone I shall achieve.

Saw

Finally, after 7 months I have watched Saw 7, it weren't in 3D but thats what happens when your'e under aged by a couple of months and know one is willing to take you to watch it. I predicted the end before it happened but then I doubted my choice after a scene but wasn't overly shocked at the end, but overall good film. I really want to watch Fast and the Furious 5, Pirates of the Caribbean and a couple more films. Also I'm another step closer to University, YAY ME!! I just need to get my grades and I'm moving up North.

A fresh Start!!

This is a new beginning for me, a fresh start, a major change, a positive outlook on life. I don't want to post any negativity here, as I want to be able to sign in and smile, reading over things I have posted or intended to do. I cannot wait to start university, once I get in I will try to stick to my positive scope on life, hoping the outcomes are ones I will reap and sow. Right now, I have major negative vibes in mind and towards certain people but I shall just ignore them and hope they do not reoccur. As I hate confrontation that leads to arguments but if it's necessary I won't hold back. 

Anyway, Welcome to my blog Iconic Roses, I love roses, I intend to get black roses tattooed on me and finally 'Iconic Roses' was a spur of the moment thought, that i could not ignore and had to write down.

Toodles!!
