And I am off!

The day has finally arrived!

After 3 consecutive nights of 1am bedtimes, I must tell you I am more than ready to go on this trip!

A disastrous manicure, my teeth not being completed and the fact that after all the gym I only lost 2kgs are all the more reason for me to have a kick-ass holiday!

I will be boring you with hundreds of photos when I am back!

And I will have a cocktail for each of you!!

My Place... one day

Lately all I have been obsessing about it my place. And making it nicer.

After I bought my gorgeous couch, I was content - but now I want more!

I would like to get rid of the wall unit I have because,
  • I have had it like, forever
  • I hate it
  • It's old
  • It takes up too much space
  • It's a bugger to move
The 1 advantage is that it stores so much!

I would like to get rid of the clutter and go for a more minimalistic look in my lounge.

I used to watch 1 program a week on TV (Survivor or Amazing Race as they used to alternate) and now that Survivor/Amazing Race has been replaced with a rubbish local production, I don't watch TV at all, but I want a Flatscreen TV.
Why? Because everyone else has one & I want 1 too!

Usually I am not like this, but with the TV issue, I am not sure why it is bothering me so much!

I keep thinking about how that money could go towards somthing so much more worthy!

Anyway - Here is my wishlist for my house in a world where money means nothing:

Let me Go!

Thailand is so close I can taste the tropical air with a hint of Strawberry Daquiri!




Only 14 more sleeps & our Asian adventure begins!



I have been obsessing over how little I can get away with packing to ensure I have the lightest suitcase ever! (I used my trip to Clarens as a practice run and all i had left out were socks and a long pair of jeans)



Being in hot humid Asia I still plan to have a long sleeve top, but I doubt a jacket is needed.



A pair of closed shoes should I need to walk a lot



A pair of slip slops that are plastic, which makes them easy to clean and give good grip on slippery surfaces



1 pretty dress for dinner out at night



1 pretty top to alternate with dress - can team it up with a pair of cropped jeans and closed shoes



1 sleeved Tee to protect my shoulders at Midday



2 summer tops & 2 summer dresses



3 Sarongs (can be doubled up as skirts and are lightweight & dont take up much space!)



The key will be accessories and mix n matching the items.



In my toiletry I have everything in miniature:



Shampoo and conditioner



Face wash, toner and moisturiser



Toothpaste (alas my toothbrush is adult size)



I am super excited! I need this holiday like an Italian mob boss needs his Mama!

Love this song: The Script - Nothing

  • Nothing
  • The Script

  • Songwriters: Stephen Kipner, Unknown
Am I better off dead?
Am I better off a quitter?
They say I'm better off now
Than I ever was with her

As they take me to my local
Down the street
I'm smiling but I'm dying
Trying not to drag my feet

They say a few drinks will help me to forget her
But after one too many, I know that I'll never
Only they can see where this is gonna end
But they all think I'm crazy, but to me it's perfect sense

And my mates are all there trying to calm me down
'Cause I'm shouting your name all over town
I'm swearing if I go there now
I could change your mind, turn it all around

I know that I'm drunk but I say the words
And she'll listen this time even though they're slurred
So I dialed her number and confessed to her
I'm still in love but all I heard was nothing

So I'll stumble there, along the railings and the fences
I know if I were face to face, that she'll come to her senses
Every drunk step I take leads me to her door
If she sees how much I'm hurting, she'll take me back for sure

And my mates are all there trying to calm me down
'Cause I'm shouting your name all over town
I'm swearing if I go there now
I could change your mind, turn it all around

And I know that I'm drunk but I say the words
And she'll listen this time even though they're slurred
So I dialed her number and confessed to her
I'm still in love but all I heard was nothing

She said nothing
Oh, I wanted words but all I heard was nothing
Oh, I got nothing, I got nothing
Oh, I wanted words but all I heard was nothing

Oh, sometimes love's intoxicating
Oh, you're coming down, your hands are shaking
When you realize there's no one waiting

Am I better off dead?
Am I better off a quitter?
They say I'm better off now
Then I ever was with her

And my mates are all there trying to calm me down
'Cause I'm shouting your name all over town
I'm swearing if I go there now
I could change your mind, turn it all around

I know that I'm drunk but I say the words
And she'll listen this time even though they're slurred
So I dialed her number and confessed to her
I'm still in love but all I heard was nothing

She said nothing
Oh, I wanted words but all I heard was nothing
Oh, I got nothing, I got nothing
I wanted words but all I heard was nothing

Oh, I got nothing
I got nothing, I got nothing, I got nothing
