IVE BEEN GONE TOO LONG

Hello blog i am back...
I was in Madrid and so i made a cheeky Video Blog of my tiempos.Good fun had by all....HERES THE VID

HONK HONK

so today i got to experience the M1...havn't done this journey in a while...Can we all just have a moment for how MENTAL some drivers are. I've always been a pretty nippy driver but when i change lanes i am militant, so i can NOT understand why some people feel its OK to try and kill themselves and others to get one car ahead...
CORSA - around the nottingham mark mr corsa comes off the sliproad and throws himself small engine and all across three lanes just so my bro and I can experience his beaut driving skills from the front row...NOT IMPRESSED>
then by Birmingham we r cruising, singing along to NDUBZ (my bro is a fan)...I glance to my left..and BAM>>>i see two guys, windows down, smoking....a SPLIFF....listening to something that made their heads bob...they were loving it. Part of me wished I was riding with them despite the whole illegal part it looked jokes.
FASTLANE....now obviously it is called that for a reason....i like to ride in it, as does my bro....it means the journey is shorter...so can somebody tell me why old people in small van/cars sometimes join in??? "trying life in the fastlane" is not literal. Because they are old, i don't tend to get especially mad, i just aww when they eventually move, but what really makes me laugh is when you think they are going to be old and you overtake and they are like normal aged who should understand that its not cool to block the fastlane for miles...then i feel it is acceptable to blow a gasket (car joke - appropriate).
50 mile an hour zones.....RIGHT YES RIGHT>>>>ok mr average speed check....can you tell me your purpose??? I understand you have been there for years now....some 25miles long...and yet i see ZERO roadworks just some casual cones at the side of the road....if its a joke you better pray we are laughing on the inside...and i feel if this continues, others will start to break the law as we did today...with an average speed of lets say 57...TAKE THAT!
other small things...i love the old school cars you see on the motorway, and the lorry drivers always eating, and the cars with just one guy/girl in singing their hearts out...i truely empathise with them..:)

ps my bro made me listen to the clash, the vandals, the bouncing souls and the slash today...i am now cultured in a new genre of music

FAMTIME

Hello BLOG!!! well today i just thought i'd let you all know that i got beaten in tennis by my three brothers today...even with the team name FEDAL....me being nadal and maximillian being federer....6:1, 6:3...and you know the rest. I am too deeply disturbed and distressed to write much other than i am ashamed...and feel i ruined the match for my brother. I doubt i can ever repay him and i feel i have lost a partner for good. Unfortunatley for me im in a gloating LOUD family (could be where i get it from) and so I will be hearing about this for the rest of the evening and life until i redeem myself.
But for today i have set my racket down and put nadals left arm to rest.
Over and out from the country....what a sad sad day

Thank god for Derek

i have decided getting public transport is always going to be funny. Today i am making a trip up north, and i had to get east coast trains from Kings X...OBVIOUSLY my train was cancelled...but i wasn't even annoyed, there are way to many people to laugh at on these manic adventures. Por ejemplo..."pinky" - a woman in a pink jacket causing serious chaos and queue jumping because for some reason i think she thought she was in a more URGENT situation than the rest of us. I mean serioiusly there was not even an issue, they were going to put us on the next train and will get seats...but it was the queue that was really "confusing" everyone. My fav thing about a "crisis" - all the normal people with a mild sense of humour tend to group together and talk through it...i obvi fall into that category and made some new pals. one of which i had that awkward chat with when the train did start moving...whos gonna stop talking first so we both get down to our magazines/films. MADMAN no.2 - tattoo on his ear lobe dressed in sporty attire was making a scene at the front of the queue blatantly so when queue eventually moved hed be at the front - but luckily for us PINKY noticed and ordered his little ass to the back. DEREK was THE guy in charge of operations. If it wasn't for him, gheez, i think we'd all probably be stuck in kings cross waddling around because we are all stupid and none of us have experienced train disruptions before...HMMMM. but you know, DEREK did his job, and ushered us on to the new train with a sly wink and a warning to "not spread the word" coz obviously the back of the queue isnt going to notice that the front has started to jog/walk towards a platfrom. As you can imagine this didnt work..it was chaos...Grown men and grannies were running....luckily me and my new pal had youth on our side so we didnt have to embarass ourselves by visibly running we just walked with HASTE. Im still on the train now...its wild...people trying to get down aisles with SUITCASES>>>>are you maddd??? did you just knock my elbow without apologising....grrr...
Over and out from somewhere between london and leeds...
and another BIG thanks to DEREK at national rail for making sure we survived the day....PHEW

COCO WATER

OK WORLD I GIVE UP>>>>i will buy the god damn coco water....FOR 1 WHOLE WEEK I HAVE BEEN LITERALLY STALKED BY THIS WATER....the first i heard of it - my mum just mentioned it in passing, then i see it in Grazia "madonna swears by it", it apparently speeds up your metabolism...since then i have seen it EVERYWHERE...after yoga people whip it out from nowhere, it has been at the top of several rubbish bin is have walked past, i have heard it being talked about in passing conversations on the tube...but today was the final straw...p green today is over run by chelsea fans...and the chelsea bus with the players on it went straight past my window (got a cheeky wave from lampard) and on the bus i saw none other than....COCOWATER. so thats it i need someone to tell me where to buy this VERY well advertised cocowater...i believe it could be my next thing...ill tell you if i feel any different after it...
I DID SOMETHING AWFUL TODAY ALSO...i became a...a...a...o god i cant tell you...ok FINE...i became a YOGASNOB. I KNOW I KNOW the shame...im that person that makes beginners not want to go....but please please forgive me...its sunday afternoon and i just wanted to RELAX, id been hounded by chelsea fans all morninng...and today everyman and his dog decide to take up Bikram...they were talking (A NONO) shuffling (its supposed to be moving meditation!) and LEAVING THE ROOM>>>>the biggest NONO..not even beginners are supposed to leave the room, you are supposed to just sit down it your feeling dizzy. and so yes...i joined the rest of the advanced people in their eyerolling, hardfaced, "im goiing to try my hardest and put these guys to shame" mentality, and became a YOGASNOB.
A very sorry over and out from p green xxx

TE AMO

ok so i can NOT get rihannas TE AMO out of my head...as in it has been 3 days now since i saw her beautiful show at the o2...im not complaining though, o no, everytime i sing it it brings me back to HOW GOOD SHE IS LIVE>>>i must admit id heard bad things, a friend said that back in 2003 she did the MOBOs or BRITS and it was like listening to polish builders wolf whistle...ish. But wow did she quash that rumou!!!. this TE AMO song seems to be like a drug, i went to lunch today in Notts hill with two of my besties and the general conversation was not about us, just us singing the song. the quality of the singing was slightly varied though, im pretty sure thandie newton (looking ABSOLUTELY STUNNING) and minnie driver(looking erm not her best) and the other diners of ottolenghi would have preferred a more relaxed, less "vocal" clientele, but we rocked it, if only we knew more than 2 lines.
Every day i get more excited about my future...today just walking around i get ideas about what i can do to push me further...eeeek. I LOVE LIFE>>>speaking of - im also getting my first tattoo next week, its been a long time coming but im not saying anymore until i get my phone back and can start uploading pictures, wahaha.
This is my 4th day phoneless and cashless, rather liberating AND i dont have the excuse of whipping out my phone if i find the conversation boring or overwhelming or whatever...im forced to interact when id normally "check my phone" i like it. so when i get my phone back i may refuse myself the option of checking it in future....we shall see how long that lasts...
Over and out from p green as its FRIDAY
ps im going to buy a "bloggers handbook" - a new term - use it

Americans

So today I am completely hampered by this horrific cold. can't even breath through my nose...so you can imagine Yoga to be rather difficult....ahem....lets just say i less than enjoyed the first 30minutes where the normal feeling of struggling to breathe turned into how you'd imagine it feels to drown, literally like you imagine the torture technique they use in Russia to feel like...O GOD IT WAS AWFUL...BUT THEN>>>>i got a near perfect posture and had genuine enlightenment when my sweaty forehead touched the floor...the yoga teacher grabbed my rather emotional face post pose and he looked soo excited...so i was so excited. SO after that i completely forgot about the fact i couldnt breath AT ALL, and was o so chuffed with myself *pat on the back, small celebratory dance* :) my achievement still hasnt left me, i look like a cheshire cat.
I've decided i LOVE americans...why??, well, after class im slowly putting on my shoes and find myself listening to a chat between a british beginner (BB) and an advanced american (AA)....i swear americans have the knack of sounding sooo involved with what they are saying, like they could make the story of finding a mouse in the house spiritual...i dont know whether its their tone of voice of their choice of words, but today listening to the AA tell BB how "at the beginning the heat is your "everest" but after a few classes its the heat that keeps you fully focussed and able to progress further in every posture" - I COMPLETELY believed her and thought about it the whole way home. Then i put this into a british accent...its just never going to sound as convincing or calming....i think we need to jazz up our accents more, no wonder americans always think we can only sound polite. polite=boring.
Speaking of boring, for the rest of today ill be wholed up in my quilt downing lemsip and trying to knock this illness out of the park (american saying).

Ps the dream is beginning - i will be doing backstage interviews at a little fashion show that will be taking place in July. yeeehaaaa

The beginning

Sooo HELLO ALL. This is day 1 of what should be the hottest Blog in town. I will be uploading my journey on my quest to fulfilling my dreeeaaammm...presenting/tv journalism. What you need to know so far is....NOTHING...it will all become clear why i think im made for this.

Currently finishing my Masters in Real Estate Investment...soon ill be a mosquito (MScuito)...ya ya i made that up.

I am on day 14 of the 30 day Bikram Yoga Challenge...fallen in LOVE with the art. During the 90 minutes in a 44 degree heat room all you can think about is WATER and what it feels like to be in cool air...well actually this is what you think in your first few classes..wheras as 14days in you actually start to fall prey to the mantra that comes with it. A sort of moving meditation. You can survive the full 90minutes just by staring directly at your eyes in the mirror and smiling. Well at least thats how i do it.. I've lost a bit of weight so far, and i can see my bod toning, so im very excited to see the end result. Bring on TOMORROW!

Ill be creating a showreel o so sooon...and you'll be the first to get a taster.

SO for today, over and out from p green
