Five Things – Week 43
November 21, 2016
Five Things I Did This Week
- After having a first date last week, I had the second date Sunday and then three further dates this week. I find it so strange that someone wants to spend so much time with me but it’s a nice change from the idiots who I go on dates with and then ignore me afterwards.
- On Monday I returned to the gym and had a great workout. I have been pushing to do more weights and me and my mum had a good twenty-minute free weight session.
- On Thursday evening I went to Top Golf for a catch up with some of my friends from school and it was such a fun evening. I didn’t lose either which was great, I got the highest score I think I’ve ever got there (still rubbish but a triumph for me).
- On Friday I had a nice relaxing evening in while watching some movies and getting a GBK take away with was lovely.
- At the weekend I was meant to do my lake dives for my PADI training but due to how cold it was and how much gear I had to wear I wasn’t able to finish it so I’ll be going back in the summer to try again.
Five Great Things To Happen
- The lovely Jemma at Dorkface helped me create the perfect new banner for my blog which I am so happy with, and I made a few small tweaks to make it how I want it. I always get itchy feet with layouts and I’m sure in the new year I’ll change it all around again.
- I have finally started Daredevil season 2 which is proving to be pretty great, and I’ve also starting watching the very strange Black Mirror which is so intriguing.
- I booked a hotel for Slamdunk in Birmingham next May and I am so excited for the festival already. It’s going to be a busy weekend with a wedding in between two dates of the festival but I can not wait.
- I managed to get a ticket for the Blink 182 tour next year and I am beyond excited. I’m a bit worried I’ll actually like them better with Matt instead of Tom but I could not bare the idea of Blink touring and me not being there.
- I managed to make a bit of a dent on my Christmas shopping as I did a bit of an online binge and I feel like I’m starting to get somewhere. But I definitely need to make a trip into town and pick up a bunch of bits.
Five Things Which Sucked
- My pass for Jimmy Eat World on Monday fell through which is such a shame as I was looking forward to the show quite a lot.
- Despite making a dent on my shopping I am stressing a little as December is next week Christmas. I am kinda prepared but I still feel like I have loads which I need to do and I think I need to spend time just planning, writing lists and finding presents.
- Due to excessive eating out last week I put on 2 pounds at slimming world. I need to make sure I don’t let things get too out of control.
- As the lakes were so cold at the weekend I have a bit of a cold now which sucks as sometimes I find them hard to shift.
- My dad is still struggling with job hunting quite a lot and I feel like I am running out of options for him.
Five Things To Do Next Week
- Sort out anything I might need to take with me for my day in Copenhagen next Saturday. Yes, you read right, a day.
- Have a least one lazy evening in with movies, food, a bath and sofa time.
- Start getting up early and doing DDP Yoga before work.
- Starting wrapping my Christmas presents so I can move a whole load of them from my house to my nan’s where they’ll be given.
- See Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them. I am pretty sure I’m going on Wednesday but I can’t wait to see this movie.

Yay to the dating world. I quite miss dating now *scrolls through phone*. I had noticed the banner, very nice. I’m the same way with the layouts. I had the biggest crush on Travis – something about him that’s so appealing. xo
Woo loving the new banner, Jemma always does a mint job. You’re also the only blogger I’ve come across that watches Dare Devil! How are you finding it? Season 2 is MUCH better. If you like DD you’ll love Luke Cage.

I can’t believe more people don’t watch it! I actually watched Luke Cage like the week it came out and I loved it 😀 x
Ah I thought you’d have loved it! I have so many Carhartt jackets on my Christmas list after watching Luke Cage now haha!
You know, I’m going to be controversial here and say that I wasn’t a huge fan of Jessica Jones though. Did you hear that they’re making a Punisher series too? I’m SO HYPED!
Yay for the first date going so well. Don’t put yourself down, they obviously want to spend so much time with you for a reason.
Don;t beat yourself up too much about the gain at Slimming World. Just take each day as it comes as you try and get back on plan x
I love Black Mirror – it can be so freaky and close to reality, in an almost awful way often.
I’m so glad the date went well, I think it’s nice when someone wants to spend time with you! Also yay for Blink 182, I’m super jealous! xx
whoo glad the dates are going well. And a bit jealous that you are gong to see Blink 182 next year
I miss Top Golf. We used to go all the time before we moved to Germany and still haven’t found somewhere nearby to do it.
Sounds like some great things happened for you plus congrats on the dates.hope you guys see each other more.
Also have fun in Copenhagen
Ah, I’m pleased the dating is going well for you. And I love you blog banner too x
I love that the dates are going so well, that is FAB. I hope you’re dad gets sorted soon, I know how demoralising it can be! H x
Aw I am so glad to hear that your first date went well and that you have some more dates lined up. Can’t wait to hear what happens next!
I have been busy getting ready for Christmas and work. It is a very busy time of the year. Good to know your date went well.
I am loving your new banner, everytime I see a new one, I then want one x
I’ve been very busy get things sorted for Xmas its been a bit manic.
A day in Copenhagen sounds like fun, I’m envious. Most of my plans for the week were put on hold as neither hubby or I feel 100%. Hopefully, we will be back to normal by the end of this week.
I am getting on quite well with my christmas shopping, feel on top of it at the moment, which was helped by a trip out on Saturday and getting quite a bit x
This is a great post idea! Something positive to look back on! Love the new banner xo
What a fantastic post! Dorkface is awesome 🙂 I love Black Mirror, in a sad, confusing way. It’s scary as some of the most obscure things, are actually beginning to happen! Great idea for a post! 🙂
How exciting that you are dating! I would love to go to Copenhagen, shame it’s only a day. Black Mirror is awesome, I’ve gone through half of the new season
I really need to start at the gym again!! And I too nedd to start wrapping gifts!!
I loved the previous seasons of Black Mirror but haven’t got round to watching the recent one yet. I too am stressing about Christmas. I have most of the gifts, but I don’t know how or when I will get chance to wrap them and distribute them! I will be keeping my fingers crossed for your dad too xx
I’m so jealous you’re seeing Blink 182! I saw them at Reading and they were amazing!
Seems like you had an amazing week :), so happy to hear your dating live it’s going so well :), I love Blackmirrow so much, I should check Daredevil out 🙂
Looks like you have a good week a head of you, I hope you get a nice trip to Copenhagen! I am actually going to see the new harry potter movie on Saturday and I am so excited! xx
I’m the same I have started my Christmas shopping but I’ve not done enough not to feel a bit stressed about what I still need to get.
Congrats on the Blink 182 tickets, I heard those were difficult to get! We all have those weeks with Slimming World, I’m sure you’ll get back on the ball soon x
I need to start my Christmas wrapping too – I have so much to do! X
Your week sounds great. Ive had the worst week, ill and then my daughter waking up at silly hours and not letting me go back to sleep. So tired! I did find a new TV series to watch though, Lucifer. I think its brilliant
