Monday, Tuesday, happy days....

So I've been a bit of a recluse at the moment, here's why. My brother has been in Monaco for a week, and as I don't like an empty house, I decided to camp out at my mom's. Monday proved to be a difficult day, but for good reason. Someone up there was not happy with me and decided that Karma would teach me to be a better person. What doesn't kill you makes you stronger, eh? I felt a stronger person for Monday. I even started studying again, and bought my swimming towel. Now I have no excuse.

Tuesday proved to be even more testing when I bought myself a new bra after a tough day at work. My mom was saying how I looked like I had lost weight, so I decided to go for a size down, which I was quite happy to do. Someone up there was, again, not too pleased with me, and decided that one size down wasn't enough. I stood in my room at home with my bloody pathetic chest arching my back, trying to fill up this damned bra. Serves me right for not trying it on I suppose. My mom suggested stuffing it with tissues, which didn't seem like such a bad idea. I decided a better idea would be to eat more chocolate. Tuesday was not going to flatten my spirit though, I was ready for any challenges that the man upstairs was going to throw at me. There is always a solution to a problem. Oohh, I also bought a superb novel Tuesday, which I have almost finished. I'm glad to be back reading again.

Wednesday was interesting to say the least. I got home from an uneventful day, and to my surprise my mom, who was only due back 1 1/2 hours after my arrival, had locked the front door. I sat outsaide the house miserable. I tried being angry at the door as well. Then a light bulb started shiningin somewhere in my cranium. Being South African pays off, I know how to break into houses. With my skillful fingeres, I managed to break in at another entrance.

Thursday was a friend's birthday, and we had a lovely evening out at a restaurant. When it was time to leave, we decided we would have a swift one at the pub before we left. We ended up in some side ally in the dodgiest pub I have ever been too....and it was a karioke night. Needless to say we didn't stay long.

Friday was so boring I nearly fell asleep at my desk. And that's all.

Aside from my daily activites, a few outcomes from the week were:

Shirley and I are going to do something for Cancer research....we do not know what yet though, but we will do something to raise money.

Shirley and I have also organised a team for a bike race. A little different from the usual bike race, but we are looking forward to 14 May, all 23 of us on the same bike ><

I have once again embarked on a study frenzy

I have once again become a bookworm

Overall, I am happy with the outcome of this week, and feel like I'm getting back on track. There is light at the end of the tunnel, at it isn't the fires of hell.
