the expense of being a poor girl

two days til Cyprus!

i'm so excited. so so so excited. but i really dread the thought of getting up incredibly early. it makes me nervous just thinking about it. i think the excitement/stress is what's keeping me from sleeping. in the last twenty-four hours, i worked more than i slept. my brain is just a huge fuzzy mess.
and i keep losing track of clothes. and i have no idea what to wear, what to pack or what to take on the plane. what's worse is that we're flying from heathrow's terminal five. this isn't exactly a casual place. inside there's a Harrods, a Dior, a Gucci, a Prada and a Tiffany & Co. so i guess what i'm really stressing out over is if i can wear Primark shoes without looking like a totally ignorant, poor nobody. i'm aware that i am a ridiculously superficial excuse for a human; this is the way i am.

i'm also buying a stupid amount of music from itunes.

i think the invention of itunes is a godsend. i have a really strange taste in music, the fact is that i will listen to pretty much anything. Florence and the Machine, Kids in Glass Houses, Whitney Huston, Blink 182, Bloc Party, MGMT. i could go on. and on. and on. but i think i do that enough. i'm currently buying: Fall Out Boy, Paramore, Hey Monday and Jennifer Hudson. spot the odd one out. i really wanted to get Sex and the City (the movie) to go on my iphone, however itunes didn't have the film, only the soundtrack - hence the Jennifer Hudson song.

in other news

i'm really proud of myself for sticking to my weight-loss/fitness programme. it's due to end on saturday, so that should be the final instalment of the fitness feature.

finally

the next two days are going to be beyond hectic. i'm working from 9am through to 4:30pm both tomorrow and saturday. along with packing/last minute beauty regimes / other arrangements etc, if i have any time to sit down will be a miracle. fingers crossed i should be able to do my final blog before saturday night. even if i have to perform magic and do it from my phone. which at the moment is proving to be impossible.

current feeling:

• guilty snacks today: none.
• weight gain/loss: - /+ 0 lbs (4lbs in total)
