Keeping busy.

I've been trying to keep busy which is all fine and dandy up until now.

I don't want to spend too much time alone because otherwise I get cranky and sad about significant other and I being on "pause" while he sorts his shit out. I'm not a bad girlfriend not wanting to help, his issues just hit too close to home for me to actually be of any help.

Friday night I had a yummy birthday dinner which was kind of awkward because I forgot her Christmas present (probably because Christmas was soo long ago now that I don't really think about it anymore). So, basically it was her birthday dinner but I got a present. Loverly T2 tea set which is going to apparently help me sleep which is fantastic because I am not used to sleeping by myself :(

Today I went to the travel agent to book my ticket to Thailand, except that the travel agent was closed when we got there. D'uh. Now we have to go back next Saturday because out of all 5 days during the week there is actually not at time all three of us are available to go. So instead we went to Gloria Jeans and got icy cold drinks to have in the sun. It was actually really nice outside, maybe even a touch too hot. Then I came home with all this excitement because I was going to re visit my childhood and go to Luna Park but alas, my stomach started feeling queasy and then I was sick :(
There goes my Tim Tam chiller.

No fun for me tonight it looks like. So now I shall sit here and try to keep my glass half full instead of empty.

Currently waiting for my cup cakes to cool down so I can ice them :)

(ALMOST) FREE!

TRIP TO THAILAND!

My friend and I decided we would go to Thailand for our 21st given that they are about 2 months apart and neither of us wanted a party where, essentially we paid for other people to get crunk. So- we decided Thailand. Cheap enough for friends to come if they wanted and for us to afford also as we're headed to Europe in June.

Said friend invited a girl who turns around and says "My boyfriend and I booked a trip to Thailand in October but we've broken up and I'm going to give his ticket away- would you like to come?"
Um, fuck yes we would.

Said couple has already paid for the accommodation and two return tickets and despite us being pushy wanted to contribution to this what so ever so we're going to purchase her a nice present (IDEAS, ANYONE?!) instead. All friend and I have to purchase for this trip is a third ticket which we are splitting the cost of. I checked quickly and they seem to be about $500-ish. Really, this trip is costing us $250 each + spending money which will be easily saved. I'm not planning on spending that much money there aside from day trips and yummy food because I'm not overly interested in the shopping there. Yeah, the DVD's are great but I'm a believer of $3 clothes are worth all the $3 you pay. They won't last so I'm going to be spending my hard earned pennies playing with monkeys, tigers, elephant rides and massages. Alcohol too on second thought.

There's going to be a full moon party while we're there too! Soo excited to go to Phi Phi Island where The Beach (think Leo Dicaprio) was filmed.

I'm staying at the Graceland Resort and it's apparently really nice from all things I've heard :)

Ibiza.

I finally booked it! Having booked the rest of my trip back in November it feels like I've been waiting forever to do it, but it finally happened.

I fly out of London headed to Ibiza on the 24th of July 2011 and then I come back so that I can fly home on the 27th, which honestly is pretty tragic. I would have stayed a whole week would it not have cost around 3K. I'm only staying 3 nights and its costing $1300. I'm staying as Los Molinos which is apparently a 4-star hotel and is situated directly on the beach. That being said, do European star ratings coincide with Australian ones? Regardless, it has an epic pool as well as a sauna and breakfast everyday. It's also a 5 minute walk away from everywhere I will want to be of a night time which makes me very happy.

Ready or not here I come.
