Amsterdam





Hiya girls :). Just a quick update as I feel like I've been gone for ages even though it's only been a weekend haha. Amsterdam was amazing :). To sum it up it consisted of: canal rides, sex museums, pancakes, the red light district, ferries, repeatedly nearly being ran over by bikes, being constantly offered drugs, laughing, cocktails, pervey waiters, cats and dogs living in pubs, tackiness, cafes, henieken, inwardly dying at how expensive everything was & stag/hen dos. Overall, worth every penny ;) haha.

On another note, I've decided I'm going to change my user name on YouTube. I know its only a name but every time I sign in I hate it :S. What possessed me to pick it god knows. Not sure what I'm going to change it to, but something really plain. :)

Off to Amsterdam

Hello everybody :). This is just going to be a quick blog before I go away to Amsterdam tomorrow! I've had a crazy, very stressful but ultimately fab week :). Firstly I spent a day shopping with my Mam and Sister which was really nice. We ended up buying lots of blinging jewellery hehe, then we stopped off at a nice cafe for a chat. I like cafes in the city as they always make a special effort; my sister got a hot chocolate, which ended up having tons of whipped cream, flakes and chocolate sauce on it, total sugar rush haha. My Mam got a fancy Irish cream coffee which I never tried before but it was awful haha :p.

The next day I got my hair done as my roots were so bad but I always have the opposite time table to the hairdresser, but thank god it's done now! No more wincing at my roots :p haha. So after these two lovely days I arrived at my boyfriends on the night time ready to continue my lovely relaxation....

So was the plan, until Steven worked out his passport had ran out a year ago and we were going on holiday in 3 days (!!). I wanted to literally kill him haha. Thankfully though we managed to get an emergency passport, I think a part of him died when handing over an extra £70 on top of the normal cost. I was so nervous all day waiting to see if he'd manage to get it in time, bless my Mam who was happy to take his place and use her savings last minute to come in case it didn't work out. Thankfully after it got sorted I felt I deserved a nice drink haha. It was my friends 20th birthday on the night, so I spent the day picking her out a nice heart necklace and presenting it in a cute box which I bought specially :'). I know that's pretty sad but I think packaging makes a huge difference even if I did look like I was going to propose ;). We even got discount in one of the pubs we went to, so I daringly tried out an 'eye popper', so sour but really tasty! I still prefer a nice 'sex on the beach' cocktail though and blue alcopops yum :). I was so good and even got the last bus home at 11pm even though I was totally tempted to stay out and get a taxi. The only reason I didn't was because I had to pack for Amsterdam the next day :(, but better to be organised than leave out something really important.

Oooh btw I won't be making videos probably for a while because I'll be away and I'm trying out editing for the first time (so far going awfully!). I am trying though! Talking of youtube, two people totally made my day today :). I'm not 100% on how to explain this haha, but Nicole (girlygirl0831)created a part on her profile where it has all my details which is just so lovely of her! I love watching her videos too and would return the favour, but I still can't work out how :S. When it comes to youtube, it's like my brain doesn't work haha. But hopefully I'll figure it out :). The other person who put a big smile on my face was one of my subscribers who'd actually favourited one of my videos. When I clicked on her profile I was just like 'OMG' haha. I know that might not sound like a big deal but it just really made me feel so happy :D. I love youtube in that I get to communicate with people I'd never would have otherwise, which really makes up for the occasional brutal comment haha.

Anyhoo, I'm going to head off, it's past midnight and I have to get up early for the ferry eeek! I'm so excited I'm like a little kid at Christmas. Ooh btw, does anyone else feel slightly anxious when they get overly excited? I was talking about it with my Mam today and she was just like '....uhhmm...okay' haha. I'm sure I'm not the only one!!
