coloured Contact Lenses, 30th Party & Yoga
Posted by Violetsteel in Health, Journal on 26/07/2010
Pete was working away from home the weekend just gone, they had a catalogue launch in Widnes nr Liverpool. Becky kept me company some of the weekend though and we went to watch Twilight Eclipse for the 3rd time in cinema. Yes we are somewhat obsessed. I think we are going leave it at that now though and wait for the DVD. Afterwards we saw Steve and Greenie in town for a quick drink and then Becky came back to our place for a little while. I however drank loads of cider and stayed up till 4am.
I’ve ordered some coloured conact lenses. I’ve always wanted light coloured eyes, but coloured contacts have always been really expensive and incredibly fake-looking so I’ve never tried them. On Sunday my interest was piqued again, so I did a search for “coloured contact lenses for dark eyes” and found a forum with a long discussion about them, and photos of people wearing them which looked great, so I followed a recommended link and came to contactlenses.co.uk which stocks a wide range of professional contact lenses coloured and normal. Thy have good prices and range to choose from, and the reviews for their coloured contacts were really good, so I’ve ordered some.
I’m both excited and nervous at the same time as I don’t know what results to expect, or if I’ll have the confidence to leave the house with them in. They were dispatched today so should hopefully arrive in the next few days.
I’m getting more and more interested in yoga. I’ve only done it a few times, but the flexibility, relaxation and body & mindconnection really appeals to me. I might try give it a serious go and try do a bit each day before work.
My 30h Birthday party has been organised by Pete and Becky. Luckily my Birthday is on a Saturday, so I get to have my party on my actual birthday. I’m trying hard not to get any expectations to avoid disappointment, but I am actually really looking forwards to the celebrations 
And of course Pete it taking me on holiday somewhere which is all a secret, so i’m very excited about that
Turning 30, Sandra, Race for Life, Twilight: Eclipse

firstly… Cheezburger love: Hello little bionic kitty! And what I think is a pretty smart parrot.
I’m turning 30 next month. I may or may not be having a party. Pete and Becky want to organise one but I’ve told them I don’t want to be involved in the arrangement. I always feel there is a lot of pressure to have a good time on your birthday, so I always try to approach it that “what will be, will be”. It’s just another day, if it turns out great, wonderful, but I’m not going to try force it. But with it being a milestone, I would obviously like to do something special. I know Pete has plans to take me away on holiday somewhere, which I’m most excited about. It might be Ireland as we’ve previously discussed going there, but I’m not 100% sure. I’m excited for it all though. I don’t like the idea of leaving my 20s, but at the same time I’ve never felt more confident or happy with who I am so it’s not all bad.
My Aunty Sandra is still really ill. She seems to be doing better than initially antisipated. It’s a tough existance for her though, and she needs a lot or care. We take every day as it comes.
I saw Twilight: Eclipse last Saturday. It was brilliant. It was nicely true to the book and I welled up twice. I LOVED New Moon, but I love this one more. The acting was better, more emotional, and the love between Edward and Bella seemed more truely reflected as in the book at last. This time you really know and understand how much they love each other. There were also some incredible kissing scenes. Hot! Seiing it again on Sunday.
I’m taking part in Race for Life on 20th July with Becky, Jane and Janine to raise funds for Cancer Research UK. We are doing it in Memory of my cousin Ange who passed in 2008, but now with her Mum, My Aunty Sandra, also battling cancer it’s all the more personal to us. I’d really appreciate any sponsorship you could offer. Check it out: Sponsor me!

Lost, Twilight: Eclipse
Posted by Violetsteel in Journal on 24/05/2010
I watched the Series Finale of Lost tonight. I really liked how it ended. I’m kind of sad it’s all over, even though I didn’t get into the lest 2 or 3 season quite like I did the first 2.
Movie tickets are booked for early UK previews of Twilight: Eclipse on Saturday 3rd July.
