A Life As Ordinary As You

Well been long huh? Too much work, too less fun.
Im actually not doing so good lately. I managed to lose some weight, got my hopes up but these last three days I cant seem to control myself anymore. Yesterday I ate too much. And now Im feeling guilty. I feel awful. And I let down myself. Ive been too tired and I just want to get away. The only time I can is this weekend and still it aint enough. Im too tired, I need to rest. Its getting me down.
Leo has been great though. Hes working much harder than me and even Sundays sometimes but hes great, hes a man after all. Hes looking good:) Hes a handsome man I admire him. He has his little girl fan club though...I dont mind...I think...yet...
I need some time off. Somewhere far and sunshiny...with sea...

I hate PMS. I mean it. I totally hate it. I look like a baloon :( Yeah I know, I already look like a baloon since Im chubby (not fat thank you very much) but now Im an oversized baloon with boobs:(
Boohooo
My tummy aches, my feet ache, my back hurts, Im sleepy, I want chocolate but I aint cranky and Im not nagging. How on earth can I have PMS without the usual nagging is beyond me. Maybe God made me as an exception. Thou shall not be cranky during PMS. Its a good thing too ya know. I dont drive Leo crazy like other women drive their boyfriends. I know women who are like crazy dogs during that time but no not me. Perky like Chip and Dale on a tree. (ok these cartoon references are too weird even for me).
Ok lets attend to the problems of this month one by one.
First problem: Credit card bill: Solution: Pay only what you can afford and without complaining pay the interest in the next bill. Hey I cannot do anything else. I aint rich you know. Ill only give 1/4 of the amount tomorrow the rest next month. (I need a raise did I mention that?)
Second problem: The car insurance bill came (it comes twice a year every six months) and it is more expensive than last semester!!!! I dont know why! I havent had an accident since the day I bought it! And last semester I paid (if I remember correctly) at least 50 Euros cheaper! These insurances companies have completely lost it I tell ya. Anyway, its a good thing my moms gonna lend me half of the money and Ill give them back to her next month.
Third problem: My annual car service is coming up. Dont think Ill do it this month, Ill do it March, it costs too much (I still need a raise stipid boss).
Fourth and the worst of them all: Valentines Day coming! Oh the horror!!! Ok ok Im kidding I love this day. One thing I cannot understand is this. Me and Leo act like everyday is Valentines Day and we've been together for almost 4 years. Why do people need to have a Valentines Day to remind them of how much they are in love with their partners? Its just stupid. You dont need a special day to say I love you. What, you love them more on Valentines Day? Just stupid...Oh well back to the problem. I wanna get him the usual cake, I'll order it and write on it something cuddly and nice but I also wanna buy him the 24 DVD from the TV show, Season 1 and they cost 94 Euro :( But its ok. Im gonna buy the DVDs for him, he simply adores that show. Even if Ill be broke for the rest of the month I dont care. His face lights up and that smile of his is all that I can ask for from this world. He, Im romantic and hopeless :P
Anyway, there IS some good news. I lost some weight!!! Woooohooo!!! Not much but I lost some!! And THAT is big news for me. Even my pants are falling down now that Ive lost weight.
Well...thats it..gonna get some more pills for the pain now. I gotta sleep man. Need sleep. Need coffee. Need money.
I want too many thing. Ah heck.

Well hello there. Almost 11 at night and Im all tired from all that SimCity 4, my eyes hurt.
I have nothing of interest to tell yeah suprise surprise. Ive been so lazy I even surprised myself. We heard that is is gonna snow a bit in Athens tomorrow or the next days. Nahhh...
Im thinking og changing my hair colour yet again but I dont think Leo is gonna like it. He prefers the blonde girl type (ewww) though Im kind of a brown haired lately. More shine to it I guess.
I am SO totally out of money. Ive got almost 9 days till I get paid again and I am so damn broke. HAHHAH.The jokes on me. The credit card bill came again (why cant they at least one send it to a wring address I cant understand) and this time it is wayyyyyyyy big. Cause of all the Xmas expenses I had gifts etc I am almost not exactly but almost above the limit. Well done. I only have about 10 Euros which is about 14$, more or less. Now I dont think this huge amount can fill up the tank of the car.
I know I know I am a big spender but I buy things I need...well...not...exactly..I bought Leos G Con for his PS2...for Xmas..come to think of it hey I only bought pants and a blouse for me. That aint fair.
I dont even know how my diet is going, dont even go there. I have tried very hard to keep myself from turning into a pig again and so far Ive been succesful. Me and the scales are big enemies. Every time I get up to see how much Ive lost (even if it shows how much I gained in the end) I swear I can hear it moan and yell Get Off! Get Off! At least I try...My goal is to lose a couple of pounds by March. We'll see.
Now I really want another tattoo. And Im strongly going towards the Chinese symbols. Individuality is wonderful, or if I can find Different or Harmony or something like that. Ill do it possibly mid spring to have it ready for the summer.
Now about this summer...I am afraid that due to the Olympic Games me and Leo wont go to our vacation as we are planning. I dont think they're gonna give him his sumer time off in August. And that is frustrating. Last year we went at the end of August around 23 and we had an awesome time!! If there are any foreign people (duh stupid only foreigns will read this)..anyway from the UK or USA or every other place, if you wanna visit Greece during the summer totally avoid the month of August. That is the time that all Greek people leave and crowd the islands with their families. Id suggest June and until the mid of July and then late August and September. Great times these. Not too crowded, not too expensive, awesome. But I would not suggest anything for this summer. Yes we love the Olympics u know what, but for the ordinary person I think it will be hell. Because main streets are gonna close cause of the marathon and such, I dont think the public services will work...I dunno. Just imagining all these foreign people arriving in Athens by hundreds and hundreds to see the Olympics suffocates me. This is gonna be one crowded summer in the city.
Wow that was a lot. Anyway..why are u still reading this? And I know noone is, Im just saying it loud to feel important. Go have fun. Bye bye:)
Till the next stupid post..

Oh boyyyyy I just got SimCity4 and The Sims Vacation and Livin Large from Leo weeehhhaaaawww! Im so happy...Yeah Im 25 and during last year I started playing PC games. Late puberty I guess.
I am just counting days until Saturday comes and I can sleep as much as I want. God I need some vacation...again.
I would really give anything if it could be summer again. Especially August and me and Leo were in our summer vacations. Yeap those were the days. Beach, tan, swim, eat and other stuff we cannot tell here:P Ohhh the smell of the sea, of fresh octupus grilled, fresh cakes and juice for breakfast, strolling on the islands small roads...Is summer too far away? I feel like I should start packing...argh
One thing is holding me back though...the swimming suit..that nightmare that comes alive in front of my eyes every summer. Will it fit me? Or will I fit it? Whenever I put it on I handle it like its an expensive China vase cause Im sure Im gonna rip it off. But not this year...I hope...Gotta lose some weight otherwise Ill go to the beach with those old fashioned swimming suits of the 30s..u know...from neck to toe covered..now that would be ugly...ewww
Sometimes I think how my life would be if I were thin. Hmmm..totally different for sure. But to tell you the truth, thin isnt my cup of tea. Yeah I should lose weight only for health reasons, not for the looks. Hey even Leo doesnt complain I aint thin (we should clone him and give his clones to other women like me:P hehe). But I can do it, it is difficult yes,but Ill somehow manage it.
Hey look at that again with the weight talk again. Oh well...
I love scented candles especially the one my friend Mitsi gave me as a present. Ah so many thoughts, so little time. And Im getting sleepy. I wonder who would read this stupid blog. Its boring and stupid. But whoever reads it out of plain curiosity, thanks. No go do something you like and let me be ordinary.
Till the next crappy blog...
P.S. Ok Ill stop rambling about the weight thing. Nah...

Well...its actually 20 minutes before midnight and I am not sleepy at all. Just had some chocolate, which I shouldnt have and now Im feeling guilty. Well done idiot.
Nemo was more than excellent. It was breathtaking. The colours, the movement...such a brilliant movie. Pitty though I saw it alone. Leo came at my place Saturday evening to watch it with me but he ended up playing Need For Speed...Men..Anyway we stayed at my place a while and then went to his.
Im actually feeling a bit bored. I really want something different to happen. This is so boring, so ordinary. I wish I could just do something to change the course of my everyday life. Which doesnt suck, no. It just...stays still. Like work, Leo's place, gym, home. Work, Leo's place, movie, home. Like that. Nothing. Something needs to be done to shake me. Well...not much, I am a lazy person and I get bored easily with every little habbit I start. I dont do anything else. Seems and feels frustrating. I would really love to do something outside of my self. Like Ive read other peoples blogs sometimes to compare my life to theirs. Especially people from the US. They're always like so active! So into things. Some people work, they are aspiring actors or actresses attending drama classes, volunteers somewhere, always working on something. And I am not. I know its up to me to change it, but it seems to me that here in Greece our options are somewhat limited.
Now I need more chocolate, I depressed myself. Oh and another thing..Money. I always seem to have no money. Even though I get paid first of the month around the 10th I am broke. Too many bills to pay so not much money in my pocket. I do spend some money on me or Leo. But not so much, stupid bills get to my wallet first. The car payment, the gym bill, the dieting clinic bill, the phone bill, the EVERYTHING bill. Wish I could find a money tree growing somewhere, I would chop it up and lock it in my basement so that noone would find it. And its not only for me. Just for the bills and to buy things for Leo. Oh God the money I have spent on him....cant even think about it.
I remember a time I was so lonely in my life I was always crying. I am not alone now but I still feel like crying sometimes. Like something is missing. Maybe its just me and Im making things up.
Till the next post...

Ive been trying for the past hour to find how to add a background image for my blog but no success. All the things Ive searched are too difficult and Im too lazy. Lazy plus difficult = bad situation...
Im still bored at work even though I have one thing to do...and the rain hasnt stopped..gonna watch Finding Nemo on DVD with Leo (boyfriend) tonight, Im actually excited.
Im also thinking about getting a new tattoo. Since its winter now it would be easier to get it now. It took my first tattoo about a month to heal, it was a pretty big tattoo actually..
I havent even called my best girlfriend to wish her Happy New Year yet..what kind of a friend am I?
Till the next post...and probably thats gonna be soon since I have 1 more hour here at work...argh

2004-01-10T10:13:00.000+02:00

So now I have a blog..great..I dont even know why I wanted to make this. I used to have a homepage ages ago but got bored with that and erased it. Probably Ill do the same with this blog. So I guess Ill have to wait until this current obsession starts to disintegrate too...
Anyway..my life is ordinary, simple, boring...you know what Im talking about. Many of you may lead the same life as me, many of you dont. Its the ordinary people I think that this blog may look a bit interesting. On the other hand it may not. Maybe this will help me blab my mouth for problems that I have inside and issues I have to deal each day, withouth having to confess them to my loved ones.
Speaking of which...The special loved one, my boyfriend. Its been almost 4 years and I still have butterflies in my stomach. Kinda makes you think where we're heading. Probably marriage. Thats too soon for now Im still 25..
Rainy day here...I love the rain..except from the cold. Its so cold even your ears can freeze and fall off your head. And to top all of that I am at work. Yeap Saturday and Im working. Imagine that...
Till the next blog...
