That's far away! I've wanted to go since forever ago and it's pretty much all I can talk about, so I hope boyfriend will give in soon ;) We talked about going somewhere this fall, so yeah..
Have you been traveling a lot? :)

[Tati]

Not really. The last time I traveled abroad was 2012, when I hopped around London, Brussels and Amsterdam.

Such a big world, so little time LOL

[Irene]

Well it's something!

I know right? :D I was in Berlin, Lübeck and another small German town last year. My mom always says that you should travel before you get kids and stuff, so...that's what I'm doing! ;)

[Tati]

Yeah, I've been to Berlin twice (have family there, so I don't need to stay at hotels, which is very budget-friendly LOL)

Now I really want to go to those three cities (Prague, Vienna and Budapest), but I'm going crazy trying to plan it

[Irene]

Yeah, I hate planning trips like that, I usually leave it to boyfriend to do :P I just mention a couple of things I'd like to do. Are you going by yourself? :D
(Although with Paris, I have to admit, I have everything planned already ;) )

[Tati]

Yeah, I'm going by myself, as no one else has vacations at that time.

So much to figure out, flights, where to stay, train passes... And, of course, the money issues

[Irene]

*sigh* Yeah, it's amazing how much work there's in going on vacation. Ironic!

[Katelyn]

I'm currently an emotional WRECK after finishing Fang by James Patterson. But other than that I'm great. Kinda really bored though. o:

[Shannon]

seems interesting! :p can we read?

[Samia]

I just finished The Ruby Circle and I feel like like! this is the last book of the series! :'(

[Sarah Elizabeth]

Oh dear, it's not nice when series you really like end ☹

[Irene]

Going to get some things done at the dentist today. I always feel like I'm about to die because of the...ehm...thing that makes you not feel anything. Don't know the word, sorry :p

[Tati]

The anesthesia? Have you ever mentioned that to your dentist?

[Irene]

It's more that my anxiety kicks in whenever I feel any kind of numbness :/

[Tati]

Aaaaah. You could try gas sedation (I used it when I needed local anesthesia, and it worked like a charm)

[Irene]

For some reasons that I don't know, we don't really use that anymore here :s

Ok, I'm officially on a diet! I've gained 15 kilos in just 6 months!

[Tati]

Here, gas sedation is the latest news. How weird is that?

[Sarah Elizabeth]

I'm on a diet too, my new scales are crap though. I wieghed myself the other day and I was fat. got off the scales, put on my jeans, belt, jumper, and picked up my kindle - I'd lost 1.6 pounds! How many kindles do you think I need to hold to be skinny? Shit scales.

[Irene]

Okay that's weird! Haha

[Irene]

Crazy Sarah! You can't trust the weight :p

[Tati]

Gotta say, it's awesome, you get soooo calm LOL

[Heather]

Soooo I checked my email last night and I am so excited to say I GOT THE JOB!!!!

[Tati]

YAAAAAAAAAAAY!

That's one of the best feelings in the world!! Congrats!!

[Heather]

Thanks! It's actually at the store that declined me the first time lol

[Abi]

Congrats Heather!

[Heather]

Thanks Abbie! I applied for a bagger position and they put me as a cashier!

[Sarah Elizabeth]

Well done Heather ☺

[Heather]

Thanks Sarah!

[Sarah Elizabeth]

Oh dear! It's never good when you're reading a book you don't like!

[Samia]

Congratulations Heather!!

[Irene]

I've been browsing ebay for the past four hours. Not kidding. :|

[Sarah Elizabeth]

I've been shopping too. found this really cool website that did fondant icing cutters for tiny prices. Bargain heaven ♡

[Irene]

Oh well... Girls well be girls ;)

[Sarah Elizabeth]

I have a slight shopping addiction.

[Irene]

Got myself some things as well :)

[Samia]

i'm watching cricket world cup 2015. i can't seem to stop cursing at the TV!!! the match is soo frustating!

[Irene]

I'm starting to get really annoyed with all the BRs where people never show up. I can deal with people not wanting to read the book anymore, or if they're sick, made other plans etc., as long as they just tell me in the thread or PMs or whatever. Ugh, I'm just so annoyed right now.. /Rant over

[Victoria]

I feel your pain Irene!! It's so annoying when people don't reply. I always try to PM people before we're due to start, then I can read other stuff instead of whatever I was going to BR if they don't reply

[Irene]

Yeah, and then I go to see Wanted thread and see people searching for buddies two months ahead and I'm like "dude, you don't even show up if we plan two days ahead!" (I don't know if it's the same people, it's just the feeling :) ). Maybe I should start to take notes on who I'm reading what with when, so I can PM them as you do..

It can get annoying when you don't hear anything at all! I wish we could do more about it.

Me too, but I don't really see how :/

[Abi]

The messaging beforehand is a good idea. It might just have been that they forgot, so the message will remind them. But if they don't reply, then you know they probably won't participate in the buddy read, and you can read something else.

[Sarah Elizabeth]

I just make a note of who hasn't turned up, if they miss 3 with me then I don't offer to buddy read with them anymore.

[Irene]

Yeah, I think I'll do that from now on :)

[Sarah Elizabeth]

I just got sick of people not turning up, and it's usually the same culprits. I pick them up when I'm going through old threads, I'll find up to 10 threads, all started by the same person, and none of them actually used.

[Irene]

Yeah, I think I'll make a note from now on :) Thanks guys. Some days it just gets too much you know :)

[Sarah Elizabeth]

yep.

Yep, it's completeley understandable to be annoyed by it!

[Irene]

Omg you guys, I just got the title as 'editor' on a new Danish publishing company!! It's on a voluntary basis and so I don't get paid for it, but still! This is the beginning of a dream come true <3
