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!

Catch-up!

Hey Girlies!!

Thought i'd have a quick catch up with the blogisphere.
Been slightly awol recently, so thought i'd you all a wee update on what was happening.

So anyway what have you's all been up to anything exciting??

I've a had slightly mixed time of it lately.

The end of september was pretty disasterous, my cousin's partner had a sudden cardiac arrest and he didn't make it, it was a total shock, honestly never seen it coming what so ever, so that was my september weekend stuffed, i just lay in my bed for a week and spoke to no one and honestly i just felt lost i honestly don't know how my cousin coped, anyay had to travel down to Manchester for the funeral and it was honestly heartbreaking. But the funeral was lovely, really lovely and i hope she gets on okay and i hope she comes up here soon!!  :)  SO i done the driving to give my dad a break and it was quite an experience, spcially with all the artic lorries, they guys just don't care!

After returning home i kinda stayed home for another week just to get myself together, then it's just been a mish mash of stuff.  Been hanging out with my best friend and helping her with uni work, also been at the job centre as well.

On a totally brighter note i got a job! yey. Debenhams for christams, but honestly i would have taken anything just to get out of the job centre, the place is a joke!

Then i went to see Kevin Bridges with my brother at the SECC Glasgow and he was hilarious, absolutely hilarious, honestly never laughed so much in the space of 2 hours, some of his jokes were just so true like i done the same things at school it was so funny!

Also done some more baking too! Cupcakes & Shortbread haha.

so yeah been a total mixed bag, anyway here's some snaps of my time out from the blogisphere.

Also started my Christmas shopping, almost got my mum's sorted, got her big things anyway, looking forward to my first wage so i can get more in, although i need inspiration, totally don't know what to get for my dad or Kirsty, Dilema!!

Also as a quick note, my best friend Kirsty over at The Style Khalessi, is starting up a bookclub blog so if you like books then check out her book blog (The Bloggers Library)

urgh.

Sorry this is just a little rant post.

You know i duno if any of you girls have had this problem but it's a regular occurance in my life.

I have a best pal called Kirsty (Her blog is here check it out.) We've been pals for 10 years now and i met her at school. And we're some of the very few people who have remained friends since school finish and people always question it, even those people who never even took the time to say hey to us. And why? they are the ones who have 3 wains and look terrible. Go live your life and leave us to our own and stop being a nosey person and being so obvious about it, we don't like you and no we don't want to talk or "Catch-up".

But lately more and more so people from school have been adding me on facebook and twitter and it's like, we never spoke word at school, like not a word for 6 years why the hell are you adding me?  Obviously it was for a snoop because both are private and i'm just like no i'm not going to accept you as you've never spoke to me for years at school so why now?
And then you get the people who you hated and they hated you and then they are all like send you a message and all hey how are you etc etc.
Go away you fool, i'm not interested in speaking to you.
Honestly why do these people feel the need to try and be friends now, well news to you it's not going to happen i've got my pals and they are the best and you are a far distant memory.

Then you get the ones that contact you like in secret...prime example tonight, a guy who i never really spoe to at school because he was a dude and pretty much went with every lassie he could and i never liked him like that at all never have and never will and he's messaging me like hey you whats happening lets hang out?
WHIT?
honestly 8 years on im still not going to sleep with you jeeezo.

Sorry these kind of people annoy me so much. Go get gossip somewhere else my life is boring and i'm still not a slag.

OOTD-street casual

Hey lovelies,

so i thought i would do my first outfit of the day post, today i only went into my local town and did some bits and bobs and went and did some shopping with my dad, i nipped to the bank to sort stuff out, then to get some envelopes and stuff to post my Ebay stuff and picked up a few wee bits and bobs.

I just kept it casual as the weather was still warmish even though it was windy and cloudy but the rain stayed away but still i took a jacket anyway.

So i just stuck to casual and comfy!

Denim Shirt - Ebay - it's quite long so i just tied it to the side :]

White sheer tee - Primark.

Black vest top (under white tee) - H&M

Black leggings - H&M

Ankle Boots - Primark

Zebra Snood - Primark.

Cosy and comfy outfit! :)
I kept the jewellery to a total minimum with just little pink studs and i was carrynig bags and stuff and sometimes my rings, bangles and chains just get in my way so i kept it simple.
