Bank Holiday Crazy!

After the second bank holiday weekend in a row, I have to admit I'm flagging. I know the bank holiday weekends are to have a break from work, get away and relax but to me they're more of an excuse to plan loads of fun things to do. So I planned loads of fun things to do...now I'm knackered and broke.

Friday was obviously the big wedding and it was amazing. I was completely surprised by how swept up I became with it. I guess as a trainee journalist who it subject to the Internet and all the social media outlets under the sun, it was hard to get away from it all. Not one to feel left out, I picked up my friends and we headed to Hallas' mates house for a good BBQ. Kate Middleton looked absolutely amazing. I would go as far to say as it was fairytale. Probably not the kind of wedding she was thinking about since she was five but close enough.

The weekend followed by a visit by my 12 year old brother whose at that age where your not quite sure what to do to keep him entertained. In the end, I whittled it down to four options and couldn't decide between them so did all four. Pizza hut, bowling, cinema and Chinese. Needless to say he had a smile on his face the whole weekend so it obviously had the desired effect.

I also had a surprise up my sleeve for the croc last week and after giving him one to many clues- he guessed in the end. We went for a chocoholics evening at the Aston Villa ground which was amazing. Being a lover of chocolate and Villa, again needless to say HE had a big smile on his face for the rest of the week which was good!

Most surprisingly of all, with the whole week being food filled, I managed to lose a pound and a half at weight watchers. It must be down to all the running around I've been doing. Obviously, not sitting at a desk works wonders for me.

I get my exam results in less than two weeks now but I'm ploughing on with the journalism course and trying to get to grips with law and shorthand...help!

Lots more to come over the next few weeks, I don't actually know when my next free weekend is which is either worrying or quite satisfying. It's my birthday in 3 and a half weeks so I'm trying to organise something fun...ideas please! xx
