can you feel the love

this week has been madness one thing after another. This is the thing i wish my spanglish was better. totally got trapped in Mega supermarket today you do a good deed i go punished is the motto, this is why i don’t get involved with children they drop things you loose your parking ticket then spend 20 minutes doing all actions that are included in a game of freaking charades and even looking back on my escapades i’m surprised i got away with it. At one point i can safely say that my name badge being placed just above my boob seemed to work to my advantage with ella spanish security guy eyeing them and deciding it was maybe worth helping me… first time for everything! He didnt get the tip the old guy who managed to decipher my arm movements me turning my keys and acting out a ticket got my 20mxp….

Here it seems to show the love by tipping – i don’t ever get a tip and i bend over backwards to end up being trapped in a bloody car park, but get this you get 3 hours free so whats the point of me playing this game? Well i certainly looked like the mad women i pride myself on when i eventually threw an almighty strop.

So we had a BBQ last night round T’s and it collapsed everywhere it was carnage of the meat kind, smoke everywhere and alot of o0offing, i left soon after.

Really i’m writing this because i’m putting off packing i just can’t face the aggro of having to put my life back in those suitcases, i mean i am excited about moving but i wish there was someone to just pack all of it up – this is when you start to question your wardrobe and why you bought that tshirt with you and also makes you just want to go and spend loads of money on new outfits. My clothes may as well be brand new the amount ive actually worn them i think J has made a bloody brilliant effort with my clothes, when i rocked up at the BBQ she’s sat in my dress – explanation “the cleaner put it in my wardrobe” our cleaner likes to play a game with us each week which is lets hide absoloutly everything and then when you have eventually found it by the day before she comes back again you know by wednesday morning your on the hunt again – this winds me up the most because it’s always my clothes that do the walkabout.  She should know what my underwear looks like by now shes spent each week rearranging my drawer and folding all my knickers/bras and bikini’s she should know mine from the roomies…!

All i know is by Monday i will be reunited with the people i adore and then summer is offically here, i will be blonde again from next week because i’m now bored of brunette and things need to be shaken up….

End of an Era…

Well i was casually stalking facebook (don’t act like you have never done this) and i found that someone had deleted me.. my first reaction was outrage how had they gotten there before me?! and then it turned into a fit of giggles – she had emailed me a very strong letter saying how bad a friend i had been and laying into me – i would like to add she blamed me for her boyfriend/my flatmate for cheating on her pretty sure i wasnt there and the term pot calling kettle black seeing as their relationship started with her going down that route with my flatmate in the first place so long story short i should have deleted her a long time ago and seeing as i didnt rise to her feelings through emailing back we are well i would rather say friendship deleted, goodbye old school friend – i can safely say you were not the best of people in the first place. And rather dramatic for for deleting me so long after the fallout!

All in all a successful day a nosy “friend” is out of my life and i am still living the dream.

There is something that is also coming to the end – apparantly books are. I would like to tell you all how upset i am due to the Kindle, my guests now do not feel the need to bring books to leave me. This is very upsetting the pickings in the book swap library have become sporadic and depressing, i was lucky to get a James Patterson out of it the other day. Do you people not miss the feel of turning a page and reading by lamps what has happened to the world, there is nothing i love doing more when i get the chance to go back to the uk is visiting a book shop and looking through all the books and browsing through and rereading the backs carefully selecting my next book to get into. This one little thing makes me miss the UK and the easy access to a good read.

So i am also moving again but to a different part of Mexico How excting i hear you say – well it’s going to be an EPIC summer thats all i can say. I did my first bar crawl on Monday i may like to add that i was the only one who didnt touch a drop of alcohol. We had the photographers out to take pictures of us, quite frankly i couldnt work out why i was put on this after the epic fail we had of last week with no gas, electricity and no water you can imagine the mess i was in! but it turned into the best bar crawl we have ever had and i threw some serious shapes and was bouncing around so much it was assumed i was pissed – lesson learnt from this i obviously have no rythmn which i may add i already knew this but to be confirmed with the phonecall from P the next day “i’m hanging how are you feeling – you were wrecked last night” err no i wasnt thats how i dance! Someone i hoped i could call a friend should have told me previously i clearly cant throw moves like jagger. Coco Bongos was out of this world, Moulin Rouge came on and “Thats my jam” followed by me flailing around the balcony i was finally confirmed to be a lunatic by one of our guests. Speaking of Guests they were amazing on this night i was proud to be there rep for the states they had themselves in H-I-L-A-R-I-O-U-S!! Cannot wait for the next one to come around, it was truly electric the whole atmosphere and i totally smashed it on stage doing Gangnam style “hey sexy lady” was being thrown out there just not at me, i loved being the only female rep on the bar crawl was a proper lads night out!

So last weekend me, J & A ended up the wrong side of town when all at the same time our electric, water and gas went off, to be fair the electricity was my fault i hoarded the bill thinking nothing was going to happen to us – i can safely say it does here in Mexico they actually will cut you off – i couldnt quite believe it until my TL was like what did you think would happen “its ok they have the bill and they havent paid but seeing as they work we’ll let them keep it on” my reaction “it’s not in my contract” let’s just say it was me that ended up crying halfway through the day. We had none of these things for 5 days and when we paid it straight away as soon as A rang us and was like in total darkness we assumed by the middle of next day we would have light, not the case our Security at our estate decided that it wasnt a requirement to allow our electric to come back on…. 3 days later everything has run out we’re in our cars ending in some area thats never been visited by tourists in some motel that could be the setting for Hostel Part III I like to think this was the start of a new adventure i’m half in pjs/normal clothes no shoes on wondering around the streets attempting to find alcohol because lets face it i need it to stop myself from sleeping with one eye open and without it thats the road i was heading for. We ended up in a place that had the feel of how i expected Mexico to really be with the Salsa Dancing clubs and the locals shimmering allover the place – i loved it here, yes you read that right the night starting like some murder horror film turning into one of the wackiest evenings i have ever encountered. We all agreed we would grace this place several more times.

So Wednesday was the day i received the news i would be being moved to the south of mexico to a pretty area called Tulum my reaction was i need a drink so me and J decided that a night out should happen with immediate effect 6 large wines later i was out of my head and J had her ears pierced only in Cancun can this truly happen 3 days later ive just recovered and J’s ears are still soar! We thought we would be haing our very own mini bar crawl just the two of us going round the bars we use not the case we ended up in one and managed to be surrounded by men not a bad night at all…!

It has truly been a week of endings and new beginings with a huge OLE thrown in the middle of it all. Plus another phonecall with the family and whatsapp with my favourite people my life is pretty happy at the moment i just need to get over my hatred of time difference and life will be glorious….

We don’t speak no Americano…

So my Mexicano/Spanish OLE is going as planned i cannot seem to grasp the accent or the language at all im on a road of spanglish at the moment. If in doubt i say respond with a good old OLE…

Not much to report, we have had some very strange ones in at the moment with no real common sense amongst them. It baffles me how they have ever coped without a permanant rep in the real world.

On to better and brighter things S has spoken to me everyday and he is keeping me sane, if your reading this i demand a visit. i’ve also managed to drop a dress size but have barley managed to wear any of my wardrobe as ive been way to tired to even contimplaint a night out. But my housemates have being doing it justice and strutting around Cancun town with my outfits at least someone is getting some use out of it…

I’m even getting tired doing this…
