Oh the Butterflies

I wanted to find a nice, sweet entry to help jog my memory on how it feels at the beginning of a lovely new relationship. Instead, I quite quickly remembered how it wasn't so sweet in the beginning of my last relationship with Mr Rebellious. I found this entry quite humorous. It probably sums up how I felt for the whole two years.

Sunday 7th December 2008
So my life is full of drama. The whole 'Mr Rebellious' thing is very much in full swing. Been out a few times now and have ended up at his on more than a few occastions. 
Thing is I think he really likes me, well that's what he has said! All the signs are telling me this is bad, the amount of lies I am telling is awfull, one thing is for sure, if this continues I am going to have to be honest with the rents. I absolutly hate having to lie but they leave me no choice!
It's only a bit of fun and I'm still figuring it all out for myself anyway, so what is there to tell. 
The thing is, he is probably the most inappropriate guy I could ever be with. Well ok, not that bad but pretty bad. Firstly I think it has been so long since I've had any sort of thing like this that it feels nice to go out and have a flirt. Secondly it is quite fun, I know I'm not going to get too involved so really there's no harm?! And it's really hard to say no - it's so easy to text back and say 'Yea, I'll go out'. 
I'm def going to speak to him on Tuesday... Oh yea, I'm going over to his, GOD!

 

30 things to do before 30

Back in December last year, I came up with the idea to compile a list of 30 things I want to achieve before turning the next mile stone age of 30. I set myself the challenge to compile the '30 things' by my 25th birthday in February just gone. However my life got a bit hectic, when I quite quickly decided to buy a flat. The '30 things' list sort of slipped down my one for priorities. I do however have 24 things listed.

I set myself no rules for the '30 things', I only wanted them to be realistically achievable - no point picking things I would never tick off. This list I will achieve. So, here is what I have so far...

1. Volunteer my time - dedicate some free time to a really good cause
2. Raise/donate at least £2000 for charity across 5 years
3. Get on TV - in the background or on the news, perhaps be an extra for a day
4. Be courageous - stare my fear in the face!
5. Learn to ski or snowboard on real live snow
6. Ride a motorbike
8. Go skinny dipping
9. Snog a teenager
10. Visit Oz
11. Fall crazily in love
12. Get another tattoo - one I love, with a great meaning
13. Make my parents see how much they mean to me and how gratefull I am to have them
14. Visit Paris and back - in one day
15. Be spontaneous and adventurous - take off for a holiday with no plans or reservations
16. Be confident with my body for once in my life - take naked snaps!
17. Run a 10k
18. Learn to meditate
19. Get something published - an article, blog or story. Get a little famous and keep the evidence
20. Win money on the lottery
21. Give blood
22. Take an evening course - baking, photography, a language, anything! Learn something new
23.  A yacht, the sun and very expensive champagne
24. A road trip stateside
