Ramblings and Updates =)

A friend reminded me today that I hadn't blogged in a LONG time.. I don't know why really.. Just haven't really thought I had anything all that interesting today...
I'll catch you guys up, get this thing rolling again -

I finally bought the plane ticket's for me and my friends to go on holiday!! I'm so excited!! Five of us, going to Spain, in July. College will be over, exams done. It will be a well deserved break in the sun, sea and sand of Calpe. It has been a gruelling and stressful process so far, don't get me wrong. With the disorganisation of 18 year old students it was bound to be. We knew nothing of airports, plane tickets, travel insurance, travel costs. I've had people drop out, people join, people become increasingly indecisive. Along with myself only two of the original travellers are still going! Haha! However we have been joined by some very enthusiastic and excited fellow travellers who cannot wait to get going and have a great laugh!! After I received the money from the finalised bunch, pressed the 'book' button on the Easyjet website, the excitement began to build. None of us have ever been on an independent holiday where we have to act as true adults - like we're already supposed to be. I honestly cannot wait until July now. It couldn't come fast enough =D


I have been working on a novel for the past few months now, and though it's gone through it's near-impossible stages, I'm finally on a role with it. It's currently over 63,500 words long, on 114 pages and barely into the thick of the plot. It's a exciting process and I'm loving every second of being immersed in the world created by my characters and their troubles. I almost scrapped the idea a fair few times over, doubting the plot and myself, finding it impossible to work with, but I am increasingly glad that I didn't. It is a piece I am loving and for once truly confident in. Which is rare for me! Haha! There are so many possibilities that I am thrilled to be able to delve into and explore over the next few months of writing... And I have also gained some anxious readers which is a fantastic prospect and lovely to have. Support is always needed, wanted and adored.

I also happened to have the opportunity to see a certain Mr Murs in concert too.. And he was bloody brilliant!! I was excited when going along to the Brighton Centre, listening to his music and remembering how much I loved his voice but it wasn't until I heard him sing live once again and enjoy his banter with the audience did I remember how much I truly adored the man! He isn't my usual choice in music, his style out of my comfort range of pop-punkish, but I find it difficult not to smile at his upbeat, catchy tunes and charming personality! I've seen him before in concert, at London Hammersmith Apollo last year, and knew that he was utterly amazing already. Accompanied with a vast selection of his new music last night, he somehow managed to outdo himself entirely! I love falling in love with an artist all over again, it is one of the most wonderful feelings ever =)
His support act, Lilygreen and Maguire, are also a band I would like to recommend everyone go listen to! They are such charming boys who have absolutely gorgeous voices. I fell in love with them and their music last night and I truly hope they get far. But they need everyone's support! Look them up on twitter under the name of 'lilygandmaguire' and find them on Facebook, give them a listen! =)





OK, I'll stop this rambling now and let you all get on with your daily doings...

Signing off..
