Easter Weekend

Image
Apart from the ending, this Easter weekend has been great. It started on Thursday night - we had tickets to Regression Sessions in Angel.  It was jungle fancy dress but everyone else refused to dress up with me so I made only a little bit of effort and went as a Zebra (ie stripey top, zebra ears and tail - minimal effort required).   it was SO MUCH FUN.  There was a bouncy castle, face painting, and a BALL PIT!!!!! Though it turns out ball pits are actually quite painful when you're stumbling around in one surrounded by drunk people smashing balls in people's faces.  (not an innuendo).  I came out with a bruised lip and covered in beer but it was fun whilst it lasted. The venue was pretty ace - different rooms spread across lots of different floors meant it was a bit of a maze.  A nice mix of people and no over zealous bouncers or bar staff made for a nice chilled out night. We spent most of the evening in the "rave"

Double cinema and deer

 This week I went to the cinema twice.  Bit extravagant really isn't it!!!  On Tuesday I went to see "We Are The Best" with Kwame, randomly in the Millbank tower.  It was REALLY good and if you get the chance I do recommend it, but it's Swedish so I doubt it'll be in any mainstream cinemas.  It's a really adorable film about 2 12 year olds who are misfits at school but find their place in a school band.  It's really sweet and funny and reminded me of when I was at school (I was said misfit).

Gym / Swim

The last few weeks have been all about fitness.  I joined a new gym near my work which is SO much nicer than my other one, and has men in it!  It also has decent showers, hair dryers and hair straighteners - all the important thing a girl needs in her life. I have started going at lunch time to spinning classes - it breaks up the day nicely and if they play good music then it's like having a (extremely sweaty) midday disco.  Plus work has been a bit stressful recently so it's nice to escape for an hour.  I did a power plate class the other day - it was hell and I probably won't do one again.  I for one don't enjoy a vibrating plate (no rude jokes please) and when I eventually came off it, my left leg was in quite a lot of pain -and not work out muscular pain. I have also started a swimming training course on Sundays.  Last week I swapped to the later session as I was coming back from Kent and it's at the posh girls's school in Dulwich.  The pool is really ni
