It's a Boy-Girl Thing

When we're young everything is centered around looking our best to impressed... Boys in particular. Now I have never been that girl, the one that cakes on the make up and dresses in the clothes that she thinks will impress the most boys. The girl who flirted and gave guys what they wanted... No I was never ever that girl.

Operation Fit and Fabulous!

So for the last couple of weeks we've been setting out on our little missions and  here it the basic round- up of how I've been doing...........

Reasonable Doubt

So it's not news that I've started running. And so far it's going really really well, I've already managed 2 sessions of interval training round by the lake on campus. Kitted out in my rainbow running gear: (Red top, blue trainers, green earphones) I pushed myself for a full 30 minutes of interval training.

This is a massive achievement for me... But not everyone is so sure!

The Beautiful Campus Lake!

The Stride of Pride (not the drunken one!)

Today I received an email telling me that my beautiful beautiful Nike trainers had been dispatched, which means they will be with me by next week!! Not only that but I invested in some running capris and full length joggers (for badminton and volleyball) from Next today and will be donning my new gear tomorrow after mid-day.

Setting Tongues Wagging!

It appears that us Operation Fit and Fabulous are a topic of conversation among ourselves. As we update our progress in OFAF, it seems as if there are a few rushes of emotions, all different and all equally important. I've just read a blog by @ali_edgar (http://ali4edgar.wordpress.com/) and it seems we've set tongues wagging and thoughts spiralling.

Hitting Myself Hard!

Okay so the title makes me sound self abusive and apparently I am... just not physically. This week around campus I've notice more and more girls who seem really happy.. But are nowhere near my size. So I figured what better way to motivate myself to get off my backside and DO something than to spend £60 on the campus gym and £70 on a new pair of running shoes? Let's face it: no student is crazy enough to spend that kind of money without putting it to good use! I mean really that's £130 I could waste if I didn't use it!!!


Finally Fitting In!

So after a tough few days of feeling awkward and not really having many friends, I finally fitted in at university. I went to some talks and welcome meetings for my course and here I met some lovely people, especially Emily. :)

Welcome to the Vlogging World!

Okay so last night I found inspiration for my blog... A VLOG!!! Yes I know I'm 20 I'm supposed to know all about new media technologies etc etc, However I am a technical dunce!

So Vlogging, what is it? Basically it's a video blog. Rather than typing it up, you say it and film yourself and post the video....

Fitting into Campus Life...

So I moved to uni on sunday and my room looks all cool and homey! I have pictures up and posters on the wall etc but somehow none of it feels right. I don't feel homesick but it's hard to fit in. When I look out of my window I see all these other freshers with groups of people that they seem like they've known forever and I can't help but wonder why don't I have that?

my new home ...
