Radical Self Love Discussion - Sunday 15 May

Hello

I had a little discussion with some lovely girls in the Radical Self Love group last night on Facebook, was so fun!

Thought I would do a small post on what we discussed and what I think about things, and some ideas that came up etc…..

So one thing we discussed was the times, we all thought it was starting at a different time, I think something got confused in the time conversion! I was online for 2 hours 20 mins in the end and I have a funny story half walk thought to tell you!

By the way, next time we will have a list of all different countries time zones to make it fool proof ;-)

After we discussed that we decided to go on to the radical self love, these things are not in order of what we discussed them in just some random order, as I wish I had made notes or something, I just looked through what had saved of the conversation this morning!

Role Models

We discussed our role models, mines lady gaga, and someone had an amazing idea which I have pasted below, but I couldn’t find her name, so if it was you just say!

Make a vision board, or mood board, with all your Role Models and inspirational people on! Have pictures up so remind you have they all look and how they show their confidence etc..

I am going to do this idea soon, look through my pile of old magazines and anyone who looks inspirational I will cut and paste hehe

About dealing with confidence and being an extrovert

Well I'm not confident very often, this is going to take a lot of explanation.

So I can go up to random people chat to them, when I was younger I even used to jump on random people and hold on for my life! But now days I'm a lot more shy and quite (especially around my boyfriend) I don’t know why, I can easily talk to people but find it a lot harder to trust them!

So I am going to try and be more confident and outgoing this month (except for the fact I do not have much money so that might ruin my plan a little bit).

Jealousy

We spoke a bit about jealousy but I cannot really remember what I said much…

And we also spoke about people who are there one minute your best friend wanting to do anything then they get a better offer and are out of the door in seconds! We don’t like those people!

Goals for the Month

We discussed our goals for the month, they ranged from finding a job to doing more dancing etc, there was lots but here is a list of mine!

·          Be able to Roller-skate Freely and Easily

·          To learn tricks on my roller skates!

·          Go to a roller Disco

·          Be More Confident

·          Manage my money better

·          Do a blog post ever week day!

As you can tell I'm quite in to roller skating and as roller skating is exercise it kills two birds!

Just to tell you my story before i tell you the homework we came up with...


I was going to get pizza and my bf had to go to the toilet, so i thought i would swing on the pull up bar, as i swung it ripped off the wall and i went flying, amazingly i didn't get hurt and i am fine, but it was so funny!

Homework

Now we decided we should set some homework for the next discussion and this is what we decided on! 

Write a story about what you want to be in the future or have pictures etc, you can do it how ever you want, as in a written story a mood board with pictures of things you want to achieve etc, you can adapt this in anyway you want!

It can literally be to your own specification just to five you an idea of what it will be, we wont have to see your Homework, but we can discuss it and see how our ideas differ!

I will let you know when the next discussion will be!

Much Love <3 xxxx

Roller Skating Dreams!!!

This is another Roller Skate kinda post!

Well first of all I have to show you these AMAZING videos I found a few days ago, (one mainly because it was an advert on the TV) and yes the advert has sold me that, I want to get some and see if it improves my skating ability!

So here is the first, it’s a advert for Lucozade



Lucozade Advert 2011 - Sport Lite - Feat. 'Louder' by DJ Fresh

Not only did they sell me the drink but they sold me the song, I’ve pre ordered it, and its not out until my birthday!! How random 3 July!!!

I think it’s a sign im going to be amazing at this stuff!

I want to be able to skate that well and do that dance and just flow as easily as that!!!



Well this is mine and my friends first attempt at skating since around the age of 16 lol Interesting I do agree!



Here is how to do cross overs, I tried doing it when I used to ice skate and I sorta nearly got it but it was like totally hard and I would love to do it, my main thing for my next skating session is to get my confidence up more and get better!!!

I really just want to work out my roller skate too, there is something wrong with it, it turns too much, like when im going straight down a hill my left skate trys going right and I keep trying to correct it and gets major speed wobble, its terrifying!!

I found this from Lucozade too its how to do some of the tricks in the main video so exicted I want to learn them!!



I also want to get some sorta outfit for roller skating something nice…hmmm any ideas people!

I found out today there is a Roler Derby team in Cornwall! How amazing is that, I would love to do it but im too scared!!! I wouldn’t have any one to go with, ive always dreamed of doing something like that as I love rollerskating but the tryouts are tomorrow and I cant get there.

I will film how i get on on the weekend :-)

Anyway

Much Love <3 xxxx

Roller Skating Princesses

Morning Jitter Bugs

You may of noticed on yesterdays blog post there was a little P.s at the bottom, well here is a post all about my roller skating adventure last night!

Well I got home around 6:15 and as soon as I got in I went straight to my room, got my skates out the box, and got changed before I put them on.

I managed to try and take this pictures without showing the big brown scratch on the beautiful white leather, but then if there going to be used what do you expect!!!

I sat down in the lounge to put them on, I’ve not worn them in over a year, I got them around 2 or more years ago and have not really used them!

After I got them on I rolled around the house to get used to using them again and to get all the stuff together I needed, my uggs in case I needed to walk somewhere, a bottle of water, coat, tissue and my iPhone to take these lovely pictures!

I looked outside and my friend was there in her pretty Red Polo.

I decided I was going to roll out to her car, there is a bit of a hill to get to the driveway, (you really don’t realise how hilly drive ways are until you roller skate on them), well I got out the door, I held on to the window ledges as much as I could, then rolled down the hill. It was terrifying, I forgot how rolly these skates are! To stop at the bottom I have to crash in to this wall, which is the place I ALWAYS fall over! But all went ok, I didn’t even hurt my roller skates! YAY!

So by the time I had gotten in the car I thought right I think that’s enough for today was scary, so we drove to the car park and my friend was saying its too wet for her skates, she will fall over, so we parked in the car park and just sat in the car while she ate her baked potato with humus and beetroot and salad. We have a lovely conversation about how beetroot turns your pee pink if you eat too much, (this conversation was obviously started by the odd one, yes that’s me).

We were going to go home as we thought the car park was too wet, so I took off my roller skates then got out to see how steep the hill was by putting my skate on the floor to see how fast it would roll down it, then I ran around the carpark after it looking rather mental!

We were just about to leave the car park and we found a perfect are that was dry!!!!

So I had to put my skates on after taking them off so soon! I didn’t lace them up very well they were rather loose!

We got out the car, I had my phone in hand ready to take some pictures.

There is our SEXUAL skates!

My friend took her first step out and skated off, yes I documented this by taking a photo, here it is: -

At first we just kept going up and down this flat bit as we were a bit scared and did a lot of posing (by the way I better warn you from here on it there will be LOTS of pictures and a lot less talking!)

(BTW, again, sorry but I just realised there all the HDR images which were a bit doubled up and I have a crack face in one of them).

We were rolling around whilst taking these photos some, were actual action shots! I'm breaking out the camo for the next time! Lol

This is my crack face, see what the HDR thingy on the iphone did to my face!

We so disco!

Arms going everywhere I love how it leaves the trail from where the arms where!

My legs aren’t even lined up now that’s bad!!!

Sorry about the awful quality.

So after these little picture taking sessions along the nice flat bit we got more adventurous.

I was the frist to go, I went down a hill, but I was having some problems with my skates, my left one kept trying to turn inwards, so I was trying to correct it, which was giving really bad speed wobble, such an adventure tho!

So I only did one lap around there but then I tried going across the car park so much better!

But my beautiful friend had it down, she was going round and round there was no stopping her!

We had a little rest, and I thought ooo I can do that thing when you swing under a bar then stand up again, Well I tried and it just ended up with me flat on my back, so I just had a nice little rest, little lie down, then had to try get back up.

Just before we left we decided to take some more photos, this is her Catalogue shot: -

Seriously NEVER use that HDR thing it messes you up!

This just sums me up, lying down on the job.

We went back to mine as my friend wanted to see my Filofaxes she had heard so much about, and she was very intrigued. She looked through them all and fell in love with my Amazona!

So I said try ebay, before you could say pasticcio nuts my laptop was out and we were on ebay!

Then she saw a nice cream one and she said, oo I could bid on it now couldn’t I, so  she did, then she saw another one that was ending in only 22 hours, and bid on that too, she got a bit over excited with the Filofaxes! I have converted another person to the world of the Filofax!

YAY

So now were going to have weekly roller skating sessions!

Oh I love her she’s the best person ever! I’ve missed her lots too!

Much Love to all the pineapples out there <3 xxx
