Valentines day: Conclusion

So it was the usual boring day 😦

I was ment to see a friend but as usual boys are shit. Why organise to go out when your just going to bail?? REDDICK! I could have organised to do something else with friends. I honestly dont mind if you bail just let me know so i can do something else.

I seem to be falling out with all my male friends at the moment…is it time for lesbianism now?

Anyways i did my make-up all nice for nothing.

On a brighter note im making cakes for about 1000 hungry bikers on sunday and ive only got a week to make them all, do you know how much they eat??? Itsa a challenge, should be fun.

Ta Ra

Chinese new year.

Because Chinese new year signifies spring and is celebrated just after the first harvest, im planting  some chillies and some herbs (basil, coriander and chives).

Im the year of the dragon(1988)! so this is ment to be me:

Dragons symbolize such character traits as dominance and ambition. Dragons prefer to live by their own rules and if left on their own, are usually successful. They’re driven, unafraid of challenges, and willing to take risks. They’re passionate in all they do and they do things in grand fashion. Unfortunately, this passion and enthusiasm can leave Dragons feeling exhausted and interestingly, unfulfilled.

While Dragons frequently help others, rarely will they ask for help. Others are attracted to Dragons, especially their colorful personalities, but deep down, Dragons prefer to be alone. Perhaps that is because they’re most successful when working alone. Their preference to be alone can come across as arrogance or conceitedness, but these qualities aren’t applicable. Dragons have tempers that can flare fast!

Health

Considering their hard-working nature, Dragons are healthy overall. They do get stressed and suffer from periodic tension/headaches, likely because they take so many risks. Dragons could benefit from incorporating mild activity into their lives. Yoga or walking would be good as these activities can work both their minds and their bodies.

Career

Dragons prefer leading to being led. Jobs that allow them to express their creativity are good choices. Some good careers include: inventor, manager, computer analyst, lawyer, engineer, architect, broker, and sales person.

Relationships

Dragons will give into love, but won’t give up their independence. Because they have quick, sometimes vengeful tempers, their partners need to be tough-skinned. Dragons enjoy others who are intriguing, and when they find the right partners, they’ll usually commit to that person for life.

Earth Dragons – Years 1928 and 1988

More rooted in the ground, Earth Dragons make better decisions because they act more rationally. Earth Dragons are level-headed and able to control their behaviors. They’re more supportive of others, but they prefer being admired by others.

Well the “others are attrcted to dragons” bit isnt true and the careers bit isnt true but i guess the whole relationship bit is true in my case.

All a load of shit though really isnt it.

Valentines day.

Im not sure why people find this day so depressing, i never really think about it, i dont think ive ever had a valentines…apart from some guy from cov that bought me a jack skeleton model. romantic bastard.

I just use the day for an excuse usually to make someones day a bit better by sending a card and letting them know that i love them 🙂 or this year for example im meeting up with an old friend that i havent seen for probally over a year (even though hes a bastard and nearly killed me). BUTTTT i usually have fun on valentines and go out with friend or have a night in infront of the telebox.

I did make some lovely cupcakes though yum yum
