“When we were five, they asked us what we wanted to be when we grew up. Our things were answers like astronaut, president, or in my case, princess… When we were ten, they asked us again. We answered - rock star, cowboy, or in my case, gold medalist… But now that we’ve grown up, they want a more serious answer. Well, how about this… Who the hell knows? This isn’t a time to make hard and fast decisions. This is the time to make mistakes. Take the wrong train and get stuck somewhere chill. Fall in love - a lot. Major in philosophy because there’s no way to make a career out of that. Change your mind. Then change it again because nothing is permanent. So make as many mistakes as you can. That way, someday, when they ask again what we want to be… We won’t have to guess. We’ll know.”

Not feeling my freshest
Probaly the last night out in a while. I feel awfulllll. I can't feel my toes from my shoes! ..... Time to start saving money now. Thankfully, I have finally got a job, as bar staff at the Wheatsheaf pub. The hours are really good saturday/sunday every week, and some evening shifts aswel. I was there on Friday, on the day of the celebration of the Royal wedding, and all I did all day was face paint children, which I quite enjoyed. Can't wait for that first pay package ahhhh.

Beadale
Slept over at Bex's house last night. Never been there before, because it's quite a long way from my house. Had a nice girly night in... cracked open a bottle of wine, and watched a movie. Today we went to the farm where she works! - 'Big Sheep Little Cow'. I remember going there when I was little, so cute. Then we went for a walk around Beadale, and then sat out in the sun for a bit. Another hot day :)

Hair
John Frieda blonde hair spray and Sunin super. The two products I have just recently got. The John Frieda hair spray is supposed to be for blondes, or people with light hair. It says that it brightens natural, colour-treated or highlighted blonde hair. I've swapped this one for my normal hair spray. The Sun-in is also a spray but you put it on your hair after you have washed it. It lightens the colour, and is a gradual thing... so I think it's alot better than using bleach. This is far less damaging. Heat activates it, so you can either used a hairdryer or sit out in the sun. Probaly a good product to take with me on holiday. I have only use it two times, and will see if I get any results from this.

Last night...
Had a really good night last night. I went to Chloe's first... it was her sister's 21st birthday and she was having a cocktail party. Got nicely drunk from the drinking game that we played. Then we went to town and met up with the girls.We went to seen, inside out, harveys and flairs. My mum was also out last night with a couple of her friends, so we got the DJ in flairs to give her a funny shout-out. Much appreciated ;)

Weather is gorgeous today
Ok, so I haven't wrote on here for quite a while. I haven't been in the mood at all! But i'm ready to start again, new adventures ;) ......
Lately I haven't been up to much. Although I have started my driving lessons which is something to mention, I have my second lesson today. One day I want to be driving a pink moped haa.
I'm in serious need of a job, there dosen't seem to be any going at the moment. I only have a few months left of my course, so once i'm finished with that I can get a full time job and earn lots on moneyyy.
I have BIG plans for next year, so i'm going to need all the money I can get.

Hair stripped
It looks red in the picture but i'm actually ginger again now. It feels so good not to have black hair anymore. Although I like this colour, it won't be long until it will be lighter.

Clare Nasir's fitness DVD
I have just bought this fitness DVD. It's supposed to be for people who can't really get motivated, it sounded perfect for me. After trying the 'Pump it up' DVD, and not even managing to complete it once, I needed one that was actually realistic. This one has 4 20minute workouts which are geared to burn fat fast. I have four months until I am back in Alanya and I am hoping to loose up to 1 stone, or more. I also started a diet 3 days ago.
Today:
Breakfast: Bowl of Special K
Tea: Salad
I have completed the DVD today. It was much harder than I was expecting. I was deffinately sweating. I did the whole 4 20minute workouts without a break. I can feel the burn now, which shows that it works. Next time I think I will have a break between the workouts... doing it throughout the day. My Mum also said that she wants to start doing it with me. I aim to do it 3/4 times a week.

Happy New Year
I have had the best New Year EVER!!! I dont think I will ever be able to beat it.
It was also Ozkans birthday. In the morning he opened his presents. I got him an Armani watch which he absolutely loves. He also got little mini hair straighteners from my Mum.
In the day we went to the centrum and had tea, while looking out onto the sea. Then we went back to the hotel to get ready for the night. Ozkan looked very smart in his suit and new watch.
New Year was AMAZING. We arrived at Mitos at 8:30pm, probaly a little late as most of the tables were gone when we got their. Dominic and Simon were there also. It was a nice mix of tourists and Turkish people. Our food was very nice. They have a new chef, who is alot better. We had a three course meal.. so I was very full.
There was a pool competition, which went on for quiet a long time. It sounds boring but it was actually funny to watch. Everyone put 10 lira in. Gencay won, I think he was happy? Displaying this by running across the pool table. Then there was bingooo. Everyone got really into it, wanting to win the money. After that Dominic and one of the waitors played a game on the pool table, which was hilarious... but I dont have a clue what the game actually was, and I deffinately cant explain. But you can see from the pictures!
Then it was `Happy happy happy happy happy birthday` for Ozkan. Chocolate cake, with Christmas icing on the top. Suprisingly Ozkan was shy, with a big grin across his face. Then the boys picked him up and threw him in the air?!
When it was 12, eveyone went outside and there was fireworks. After that we sat at Dominic and Simons table and talked to them. At around 2 me Ozkan and Burak went to the discooo. James Dean. We picked up Sabri on the way. We only had 1 hour because it closed at 3... but it was worth it, and we got free drinks.
When the club closed, we headed back to the car. There were christmas baubles on the floor, huge ones! They must have been from the Christmas tree near the the club. People were running around with them, kicking them like football. Ozkan got told of by the police for it. He was like okeyy okeyy, and ran off and kicked another one! Funny times. We took 3 of the baubles back to the hotel! I was like I can put them on my christmas tree... You could say that I was slightly drunk.

ALANYA
I am finally in Alanya. My journey down was terrible though. I only got about 3 hours sleep the night before. I still had things to pack in my suitcase, and I was excited. I got up late at 4:30am, because my alarm didnt go off. I JUST had enough time to get ready. Nev picked me up at 6:10am and my Dad came to the train station aswel. I have an image in my head of them waving me off, that I remeber. I had to stop at York and transfer trains, which was a pain, but easy enough. Saying I got to the airport early is an understatement. I had about 5 hours to kill. I was so bored and tired. When I fınally got on the plane, I just went to sleep.. with my new travel pillow I got in the airport. After we landed I had a nose bleed :S ...
Ozkan was waiting for me with a big bunch of flowers :) .... He did bring his car! After he told me he wasent going to... I kind of new he would though.
I have been here two days now. Yesterday we went to Alanyum and ate at burger king. Then we went to the centrum, to go for a walk by the harbour.It was suprisingly good weather, we even got a little bit of sun. Just as we got out the car we bumped into Sabri... so we went for a drink of tea with him. Later we watched a movie (Dear John) and then went to Mitos. Today has been similar. We went to Alanyum again. This time we went to the cafe and had coffee. Then we went to the new 5D cinema. It was only 5 minutes but was well worth it. We watched a scary video... and the chair moved, water sprayed in your face and you could also feel somethıng grap your legs. It felt so realistic, Ozkan loved it. I went on a similar one in Disney land. After watching another film tonight on Ozkans laptop, and going for a kebab we are in Mitos now. I am sat while Ozkan and Burak are playing pool. Looking forward for Dominic and Simon to be joining us later on.
New Year tomorrow... should be very good!
