Smoke screen

December 4th, 2009  |  Published in Writers block

What are your feelings towards smoking? What rights do you think smokers and non-smokers should have?

This is a subject I’ve debated with my dad about on many occasions, because he’s a smoker, and I’m not, and It really sickens me! I have no idea why, but it’s just something that super annoys me.

Life accomplishments

November 28th, 2009  |  Published in Writers block  |  2 Comments

What is your proudest life accomplishment so far and why?

This was a hard one to answer. I’ve been contemplating it for some time now and it’s really hard for me to narrow it down to just one accomplishment! So many things have happened in my life, and so many seemingly ‘normal’ events have actually turned out to be a really big deal for me, as we never thought I’d be well enough to manage them.

I think for me though learning to drive would have to be my proudest life accomplishment. I applied for my provisional when I turned 16, which was exciting, for sure! I applied for lessons later that year but didn’t start my lessons until I nearly turned 17. (I could learn to drive at 16 due to a benefit I’m receiving).

Paint, flu, and Virgin dammit!

November 27th, 2009  |  Published in Health, Other  |  2 Comments

I’ve now officially been living in Coventry (Copeswood) for 3 weeks. I’d like to say that the time has flown buy, but in reality, after being messed around my Virgin (I’ll talk about that below), and the swine flu (will also be mentioned below), time seems to have stopped and is now going backwards.

The thoughts on my mind at the moment though are mainly linked to the dairy intolerance. I’ve officially been on the diet over 3 and a half weeks now (and Richard on his Wheat and Gluten free diet, but that’s a whole different story), and I defiantly think I’m benefiting from the change. I think if it wasn’t for the flu, I would be feeling a bigger change than I actually am at the moment. The flu kinda cancels all the benefits out.

Living out of boxes

November 21st, 2009  |  Published in Health, Other

I’d just like to announce (as I’m aware I haven’t updated my blog and I miss it!) that over the past few weeks not only have I moved in to a new place in Coventry with my boyfriend, but we also contracted swine flu! Arg! I will be getting my Internet back on the 23rd of this month (I hope!).

Adios (for now!)
