its been a while...

Hello!

Yes it's been a while since i last blogged, but life got hectic and things have finally just started to settle down so i decided to get back into my blogging, not i think anyone missed me.. but still its therapeutic getting things out there and off your chest sometimes.

So bloggers what has been going on for you guys?

I'll start with what I've been up to, so i finally managed to get myself a job in the NHS (Scotland) i know it sounds daft but its such a hard place to get employed into unless your a nurse obv, but im not so it was quite hard to get into it, its took me a year since graduating to get myself into it finally.
I've been there 3 weeks so far and well to be honest its not what i was expecting, but i'll stick with it in the hope it gets better as i know things take time.

However in me saying it's okay i know that no matter where you go, sometimes even being qualified you still start at the bottom, so the only way is up right?

Oh yeah so i'm a Biomedical Scientist, fancy title, nothing special.  Im hoping to use this job to get myself into the Pathology department as i think this is where i want to be, i say that but if i get there i might hate it so ill keep my options open when it comes to it.
Having started to work in a hospital laboratory you really do see it all, and some days it makes me sad when you see what some people are suffering and you feel bad for moaning that i'm cold.
I enjoy it though, i feel like i meet people even though i dont i just deal with their samples, but you sort of learn their story as you do this, and you see some gorgeous names, i know this sounds ridiculous, but just seeing how names have changed over the years is really nice and how unusual some people's names are it just always makes me smile, also when i see people who are like 97 im like OMG cause seeing someone born in 1915 just seems so crazy to me but its so nice to see them still going :)

As im not settled into any department i do wee bits in them all, and on Friday i had my first day in the Mortuary, and i know this is going to sound like i am a complete weirdo (i promise im not a mass murderer/weirdo) i actually really really enjoyed it, it was not at all what i was expecting, i think too much CSI/NCIS has corrupted my mind haha, it was all just very normal and there was no stainless steel in sight which was quite disappointing, and the major thing i found was that it didnt smell, not even slightly, i thought it would smell of Formaldehyde or something but it smelt of absolutely nothing, i was astounded.
So anyway, I got down to it and went to work at the mortuary and it was honestly such a good experience, i get that its not for everyone and i guess you need to be a certain type of person to be able to deal with it, but i take all positives from it i dont find it creepy or weird, i actually find it really nice.
I take the stance that once someone passes away people often just see it as thats it, they have gone.
its actually not at all like that a lot happens in the mortuary and i think they do a really important job.
I like to think that the job they do is quite critical and also they make your realitves and family ready for you to see, ( if you see them in the hospital before the funeral home) which is important as no one wants to see someone they love in an awful state, therefore making someone presentable to their family for one last time is important and i think people forget sometimes, and just giving someone a little bit of love before they pass on to another place is a nice thing, they are still a human and they still deserve respect.

so anyway getting off the death chat i enjoyed it and i hope the job only gets better :)
Also still working at Debenhams which is still good, love my discount haha :)
Still see my friends, go out for dinner with my Fav <3 and yeah life is getting there!
Plus its Autumn and winter is coming, best time of the year!! here's to birthdays, halloween, bonfire night, christmas and new year!!

:)

anyway im back bloggers so let me know whats been going on!

Gel Nails.

Hii Girls,

So over the last 2 months or so i decided i would start to look after my nails, because i've always had not terrible nails but they weren't really that great either so i decided tomake them pretty once and for all!

So acrylic nails areavailable anywhere, but myexperiences of these honestly haven't been that brilliant, they usually leave my nails in quite bad condition for a good month or so after they have been removed so it's not worth the hassel......
Then i came across gel nails! muchos better all be it that tad more expensive but it preserves your nails more and is much more nails friendly so its a no brainer really.

So i got Grey first time and then a sort of burgundy colour second time and im unsure what to get next time?

here's some photos of the nails themselves.











they are really pretty and really shiny when they are done sorry my poor photo skills don't show this off very well.
They don't chip and i worked everyday in a lab with them and they well full proof so yey for that!
they last around 4 weeks then will probably need re-doing.

Thanks for reading!
any ideas on what colour i should get next?

NOTD

Hey Girls.

So I recently rocked this look on my nails and i thought it was super cute but im a fan of polka dots so here it is....

Firstly These were a wee present and they are Nail Wraps from Primark and they were only like a few quid so not the end of the world...
Basically it's like stickers for your nails and you just find the size that fits and then stick it on and trim the end off, and it can sometimes be used again.
Really easy and quick way to do your nails!

This is how they come.... They were red with little white polka dots on them, really cute
 

  
This is the stickers that you put against your nail to find the right size 
 


once they are on you just cut the excess off and file it down, easy peasy and the results are cute and not messy!

Cheap & Cheerful.

OOTD

Anyway here's a wee quick swatch of my OOTD, for today which i'm off for Lunch with my cousin and my aunty and her two kids and my mum, so since it's still quite cold outide all be it sunny as well i thought i'd go for smart casual and ended up looking sort of preppy/chic.

*White Vest Top (Under Shirt).
*Black Jumper.
*Studded Ankle Boots.
*Padded Barbour Style Jacket.
