wanderlust

I have been feeling a little restless lately! My body wants to be on the road again, am getting over London! I am reading a book by Mary Morris - Nothing to Declare about travels in and around Mexico. That’s probably not helping my soul with its wanderlust! But it’s an amazing book.
I have been helping cease some of the travelling moving… urges(totally the wrong word but hey) by planning a trip to York for easter weekend, it’s a long way off but at least its something to look forward to. This weekend I didn’t really get up to much. On Friday night I went out with one of my work collegues and we got pretty slaughtered, I actually had a really nice night and came home with about 4 st. Patricks hats which I had stolen off peoples heads (oops) and the wrong fittness first bag. It actually worked out well in the end as I didn’t actually feel like going out on St.Patricks day and got to have nice snuggles in bed :)… Willesden Green is a hugely populated irish area though so all the leprochans were out in force and very drunk into the early hours…Prade during the day was ok aswell……
Im not sure if I have said but Ive joined the gym in preperation for my Inka Trek which I will be completing in June. So cross fingers for some fittness results :)… Last night I received my free massage which was gorgeous! X hope everyone is keeping well.

Over working for a living.

Although I will be sad to leave london, one thing that I really want me sad about leaving is my job. I am so over it it isnt even funny! I am sick of the people, although most of them are ok, they are just v.boring and institutionalised! Terribly boring, wife no kids but just so couply! Blah. And the work although ok when its busy is very stoppy starting and half the time I feel like I am killing my brain! I need to save me soul… Haha, ok im talking all very dramatic etc but its really feeling like that at the moment… a brain drain, but not of the country, a drain of my brain from my mind.. You can even see how I am writing that it’s the beginning of the end. However, it does give me a chance to sort out every aspect of my life. I keep getting glimpses in my everyday life etc of what I love doing and what I want to study once I get home but I really have no idea! I just know I don’t want to do this for the rest of the time. Anyway, end of my whinge, im off to try and find out what I want to do with my life. X

travellin thru.

Watched Transamerica last night... I think its a fabulous movie.. And love these lyrics by Dolly Parton.. They are so me. x

Well I can't tell you where I'm going, I'm not sure of where I've been But I know I must keep travelin' till my road comes to an end I'm out here on my journey, trying to make the most of it I'm a puzzle, I must figure out where all my pieces fit
Like a poor wayfaring stranger that they speak about in song I'm just a weary pilgrim trying to find what feels like home Where that is no one can tell me, am I doomed to ever roam I'm just travelin', travelin', travelin', I'm just travelin' on
Questions I have many, answers but a few But we're here to learn, the spirit burns, to know the greater truth We've all been crucified and they nailed Jesus to the tree And when I'm born again, you're gonna see a change in me
God made me for a reason and nothing is in vain Redemption comes in many shapes with many kinds of pain Oh sweet Jesus if you're listening, keep me ever close to you As I'm stumblin', tumblin', wonderin', as I'm travelin' thru
I'm just travelin', travelin', travelin', I'm just travelin' thru I'm just travelin', travelin', travelin', I'm just travelin' thru
Oh sometimes the road is rugged, and it's hard to travel on But holdin' to each other, we don't have to walk alone When everything is broken, we can mend it if we try We can make a world of difference, if we want to we can fly
Goodbye little children, goodnight you handsome men Farewell to all you ladies and to all who knew me when And I hope I'll see you down the road, you meant more than I knew As I was travelin', travelin', travelin', travelin', travelin' thru
I'm just travelin', travelin', travelin', I'm just travelin' Drifting like a floating boat and roaming like the wind Oh give me some direction lord, let me lean on you As I'm travelin', travelin', travelin', thru
I'm just travelin', travelin', travelin', I'm just travelin' thru I'm just travelin', travelin', travelin', I'm just travelin' thru
Like the poor wayfaring stranger that they speak about in song I'm just a weary pilgrim trying to find my own way home Oh sweet Jesus if you're out there, keep me ever close to you As I'm travelin', travelin', travelin', as I'm travelin' thru
