I’m not the biggest fan of netbooks. I like the idea of them but I just personally don’t like them. I did until I actually used one! My sister has a 13″ Dell netbook and I was so jealous when she got one. It’s small, cute and green. I used it once when I went round to my parents house and after about twenty minutes of being on it, my eyes were hurting and I was just fed up at how small it was. I think they are good for use every now and again but I don’t think they are for every day use.

I must have mentioned how much I want to redecorate my bedroom a thousand times now but I’m still paying this big overdue bill off and can’t do anything until it’s out of the way, paid off and I’m straight with it. I do keep looking at ideas for the bedroom though and I think I’m finally settled with what I want. Alex and I have been discussing back and to about what kind of flooring to put in. At the moment, it’s just bare floorboards because the carpet that was down was so old that we just wanted it up. It wasn’t helping with Alex’s allergies at all. I have always wanted carpet and Alex laminate floor but I think I’m leaning more towards laminate too now. I would definitely get a nice fluffy rug for my side of the bed though so that it wouldn’t be too cold on my feet in the mornings! I want the walls painted a turquiose blue with black and white decorations, curtains, lampshade and bed sheets. I want a black wooden bed frame and white wooden furniture. I have been looking at some modern furniture online and in catalouges – mainly Ikea because that place is amazing – and I think I have found what I want for a reasonable price. I need to hurry up and pay this bill off!

As of September 6th 2010, I am officially a full-time student again! I’m really excited but also very nervous. Mainly because I don’t know how I’m going to manage my time. I have less than two weeks to prepare myself and I’m a little concerned at how I’m going to fit everything in. I’m in college 9.30AM-3.30PM on Monday, Wednesday and Friday. Meghan is going to be going to pre-school from 9AM-12PM and then she’s going to lunch club before going to nursery at 12.45-3.45PM. The pre-school teachers take them over to nursery which is at the school the pre-school building is on. I still have things to buy for college. I’m actually looking at a backpack now and even though I would LOVE this one, it’s definitely out of price range so I think it’s going to have to be this one. It’s still nice but I would prefer the green one if I had the money.

Although there is the option of doing an Online Schools course but I really wanted to go back to college and while I’m not working, I have the opportunity to. Online courses are really good for people who still have to work full time but want the qualifications to improve their current job or to get a new career.

Insurance is something that I think you get not only to help you out at those times you need it, but also to clear your mind of worry if anything were to happen. I still need to get insurance for the animals but I guess its one of those things that you think, “I probably won’t need it” and then it hits you in the face. I do occasionally look at online insurance quotes but I don’t like to do to it too often because they usually end up with follow up calls asking you if you want to purchase the insurance. It’s definitely something I want to get for both my cat and dog soon but at the moment financially, I just can’t afford to.

So, there is another anti aging type product on the market too called Prototype #37-C which is an anti wrinkle cream that has 99% peptides which makes it 20x the concentration of a normal anti aging cream. Its pretty expensive but it looks like if you’re looking to reduce the amount of wrinkles you have around your eyes then this is the one that will do the job. I would never go under the knife so if I was that desperate then this would probably be something I would be looking at. Take a look at the prototype 37c reviews to see what you think.

There’s only so much you can say about the hgh supplement and I’ve probably said most of it before. Its a growth hormone that is found in the brain and itis responsible for growth and cell production. When you reach the age of 30, your body begins to slow its production of it and so you start to age. By taking HGH supplements, you will age slower. Sounds great! But I wouldn’t touch it. I have always said I would grow old gracefully. A have a relative who had a face lift and still isn’t happy with herself and now wants more surgery done. Just be happy with who you are and screw what everyone else thinks.

Since last Wednesday my appetite seems to just have completely gone. I’m becoming hungry as normal around lunch time but then as soon as I eat something, I’m immediatly bloated and full and don’t feel hungry all pretty much for the rest of the day. Take today for example, I ate lunch at around 1.30PM when I was hungry and its now 9.25PM and I’m still not hungry. I really don’t know what’s wrong with me but its not the best way for me to try and lose weight! I’m currently working off a “only eat when I’m hungry” regime since that totally makes sense and even though I should pratice that anyway, I seem to follow the “eat when my mouth tells me to” regime instead.

Hey, at least I won’t need to look into the best weight loss pill! I’m not eating enough to need to!

With the weather being warmer and obviously, I have been sweating more, I have been getting really greasy skin especially on my forehead. Thankfully I have not come out in spots but I seem to be having to pay more attention to my skin so that this doesn’t happen. I’m thankful that I have a fringe so that if I did get spots, no one would be able to see! I’d hate to have acne on chin area where there is nothing I can do to cover it up. Hopefully my body gets more used to this warmer weather so my skin becomes less greasy.

I’m very close to being enrolled at college now. I have had assessments at both college’s I applied for and have had an interview at one. I’ve also spoken to both college’s about financial assistance and have been given advice on that. I’m waiting for a letter or call from the first college about coming in to enroll and I’m waiting on a letter from the second college about coming in for an interview. I didn’t realise just how much hard work it would be just to get into college! I hope university isn’t as stressful but I have a feeling that it will be. I think its the financial aspects that are wearing me down more than anything.

One of the reasons I have made the decision to go to college and university is so that I can get myself a decent career and then I’m not stuck on any form of social security benefits for the rest of my life. Even now, if I were to get a job, I would still be relying on receiving a benefit to help me pay my rent and another benefit to top up my wages. I’m hoping to be able to have a job that will allow me to live completely independently. Lets hope that these four years are worth it.

The best thing about the business I want to create – being my photography business – is that I don’t really need all that much to get it started. I already have the camera and several lenses as well as a tripod and business cards. I could do with two more lenses, for variety really and I would also like to purchase an external flash and maybe an umbrella with a stand. I think the most expensive thing I need for my business is for me to learn to drive. I would have a lot more oppertunities if I could drive as I could get further out and not have to worry about whether I can do certain jobs because of my travelling.

At least I don’t need to worry about things like renting an office block or buying a receipt printer, although that may come in handy! I pretty much have everything I need as I am, just need to make a few adjustments.
