January 2010 - A Summary

This year, I have decided to summarise each month on its last day and use the post later on to create a mini album about the year 2010. I am already excited to see how much I am driven by rituals, or how much my tastes and tempers change.

So, let's see how January fared

THE GOOD

Favourite gadget: I am so in love with my IPOD NANO...watching vidz on the go, having 2,000 songs at the tip of my finger..AND it even has a video recorder included. 

Most played song this month: FIGURED YOU OUT - Nickelback

Most enjoyed TV show: CELEBRITY BIG BROTHER - the last ever was also the best ever. I never laughed as much or teared up as much at any reality TV show

Most promising band on MySpace: MASQUE - they have been around since the 80's and played in Hollywood's hottest and hippest clubs (the Whiskey & the Roxy, for example). They re-united in 2009, after releasing their CD "Face First" in 2008. Currently Masque are busy recording new material and filming a documentary - scheduled for release this year. I CANNOT WAIT....check out their site (click on their name above), they are so wicked. Take some time to look at their pictures and listen to a few songs, they are really great. If you like what you hear, leave them a comment - they appreciate you support more than anyone! Now if only they come and tour the UK at some stage...*sigh*

Most used/abused beverage: Australian Shiraz....no surprise there, then

Favourite Food: Amazingly enough it was NOT Pizza, but Batchelor's Maccaroni/Cheese pasta pack. I love this particular pack so much that I have it every second day. Yup, without fail and I am not ashamed as it is allowed on the Slimming World Eating Plan...

THE BAD

Exercise: I hate exercise at the best of times, but this month I have been really slackin'...Now that I have lost so much weight I NEED to work hard at keeping the bod' healthy, but I just couldn't be arsed this month. No wonder I only shifted 5lbs from the 10lbs I put on over Xmas.

My Job: It is getting more frustrating by the day. While I am thankful to still have a job, it doesn't mean that I have to be grateful being shouted at by unhappy customers eight hours per day....bleck!

Overall, January was not that bad.  I re-connected with old friends, continue to be healthy and even managed to have a big wad of cash left over at the end of the month. 

Bring on February - I can feel the love already
