So yesterday was my birthday which in comparison to the rest of my long weekend was pretty tame. Ben took me to dinner to an incredible Italian restaurant in the middle of a nearby village which I’d never heard of. The service was amazing and I funnily enough made room for all 3 courses hehe!
I best explain my wild weekend from the start. So as you know, my exam finished Friday and to celebrate I had a few glasses of prosecco and pizza, just a chilled night really. Saturday was a huge rush in the morning, the weather was up to it’s usual indecisive tricks so we made the brave decision to host our bbq, which turned out to be a great shout. Once we’d sorted everything and I could finally chill out, the booze was flowing, the bbq was lit and the rain decided to grace us with his presence – great.
It didn’t deter anyone though and by the looks of these photos, it really did not stop me enjoying myself. So yeh, this happened.
There are worse one’s, these are pretty tame. I didn’t any pictures of my friends, these were just some of Nikki’s! When it rained we had about 15 of us in our tiny living room…a call for drinking games I felt. That lovely picture of me with a pot on my head when me and Nikki decided to joust listening to Blink 182. Hilarious times….
….the hangover on Sunday, not so hilarious. So this is when I’d booked to go to the Ice Bar in London. One of my Bucket List Adventures. It did not disappoint! But to get over my hangover I had to drink through it, big error. We ended up in a karaoke bar near Stratford, missed out last train and I was pretty much nearly sick when we eventually got home.
All in all a big birthday weekend to remember, but to also reflect on. Now I’m 23 I feel like I should really reel in my drinking and up my fitness and clean eating. If anyone has any clean eating recipes for me, I’d be so greatful, or any fitness/food tips for that matter. I love a varied diet but because I’m eating clean I don’t want to have to rotate 4-5 meals and that’s it.
Anyway, best be off to stretch from my first run as a 23 year old (red sweaty mess)! Here are a few photos from The Ice Bar 🙂
