May update!!

Hello blogees! I can't help feeling that this is very self indulgent as I waffle on about my life to those who read it...
I am now nearing the end of my first year in this concrete jungle of casinos and flashing lights. It has been an incredible journey and I have learnt so much about myself.
The highlight is yet to come when myself and 'wifey' have our friends coming to stay which is so exciting..... I can't wait to show them around and give them an introduction to the craziness out here.( I am currently listening to Korean Pop Music)
My 'wifey' and I shall spend the summer together, although slightly different circumstances in a Harry Potter Castle which is also only a stone's throw away from the Belle's and bears in my life whom I met in another far away castle. She has been such a rock, dealing with ghosts of past and pettiness for one and half years, it is time for that to stop! I feel after it I will feel nothing but emptiness both in my heart and soul.....yet I will be left with memories, photos and a lamb.We have also laughed so much, eaten France out of cheese and discovered baked garlic. I am so blessed to have the belle's, bears , Spanish senoritas and all the other special family and friends in my life.
I am helping a budding author to be compose a story which is really exciting and my eyes get to see the first thoughts that comes from that person's wild and vivid imagination, although I am convinced that I know the protagonist....... only time will tell.......
I am so excited to be an 'aunty' to a gorgeous princess and I am already an 'aunty' to an adorable prince!
I love dancing and this is so magical, it is like living in a different world!

" Dance is a way to find yourself and lose yourself all at the same time."

I also have enjoyed my time as a member of a beautiful choir and have found my call as a Soprano. I love the sense of belonging and purpose.
My blog is all over the place which summarises my head.
I feel that something is missing from my life....., I am just not sure at that moment what it is... For now I just need a hug!

Love you all

Happy Easter

Happy Easter Sunday to everyone!


I woke up to a lovely bag of red and black sweets ( my favourite sweets in the universe)- spolit as usual! I hope everyone is having a lovely day.
Well this month has been quite a whirlwind, I feel like I have been on a giant roller coaster of emotions.
I met the author Marita Conlon McKenna and I am now reading her book which makes me inspired to get back into reading again. I have dabbled in some painting, I am still a novice but I am proud of my achievement which resembles something along the lines of a peacock. I am still going to Arial but I have missed two sessions as I have been a bit ill. The air here chokes you literally, I hope that I feel better soon!
Love life, a disaster, what even? I will just have to keep putting myself out there and maybe someone will find me interesting, will see!
Work is going well and is flying by as usual.We had a school talent showcase which went really well, the staff dance to One Direction was hilarious and so much fun! Being back in my jazz shoes feels so right, it's like a magical transformation, any stress disappears and you are a free soul!
 I'm waiting to here about the summer, the suspense is almost killing me, waiting for an email.
I am dog sitting this weekend, it has been 16 months since I lost my own dog, so it will be lovely to have the sound of pattering paws in the flat and endless cuddles!
As ever, keep me up to date with all of your shenanigans!
Love xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Hello fellow bloggers,

So I am sitting here watching Pitch Perfect 2 ( Has to be done) after the last hour of Lord of the Rings ( Need to see again from the beginning), with my buddy. I love movie nights, sometimes they are not as often as I like as food shops, tutoring, men may get in the way, but those special sit and giggle moments are ones that I treasure the most. Therefore I have now decided that it is time that I update my blog..... just job 1000 on my to do list for today.
Life in insanely busy, I think I have one free evening a week that doesn't involve dance, tutoring or other commitments but I wouldn't have it any other way. I feel that I have thrown myself into absolutely everything. I know this and can see this, it is a coping mechanism, I'm going through big changes.
Arial dance has been fantastic. The freedom of just letting your body let go of any stress and anxiety by flipping yourself upside down and just dangling with only the silk and concentration supporting you.I am only a beginner, but I'm pleased with my achievements and the new friends that I have met there.  I need to keep my fitness up to as I'm partial to the odd square (bar) of chocolate and egg custard tarts. They may have to go.....
My project is a race against time, so much to do and so little time... I may have to just lock myself away in a room in order to finish it....
It is hard being away from the hustle and bustle of Glasgow/Edinburgh. How I long for a glass of Magners, cheeky chicken dippers and chips and the Rugby. It is just not quite the same seeing an update on facebook/twitter.
This Summer I will be somewhere in England working back at the camp, which stole my heart, loyalty and dedication. I can't wait to be reunited with the campers who bring so much fun, banter and joy to my life.
Love always

Hello fellow blogees,

First of all a big thank you to all of you who are reading about my adventures on the other side of the world.
What's new? February brings Chinese New Year.This year it will be the year of the monkey. I am a tiger, although I believed I was a rabbit until I learnt that their lunar calendar starts in February so actually I am a tiger. I dressed up at school and you can see a photo of me wearing the traditional attire. I saw a spectacular performance in Taipa today of a golden dragon which must have had 50 people underneath it.
This holiday, apart from going to Hong Kong this weekend, I have decided to stay at home for some much needed rest, recuperation and a spring clean. I also need to catch up on some school related business. I have recently taken up art and I have a very patient teacher who is helping me to understand perspective, shading and colour combinations. Through her help, patience and dedication, I am able to see an improvement in my understanding of colour, shade and light. I have also managed to complete more of my project which is so hard as the aida is black. I think I need new glasses!!
I went on a date, it wasn't a disaster but it wasn't perfect either. Why are men so complicated? I guess no one knows the answer to that..... I shall however spend Valentines with one of my friends, wearing red and having a good time. I may also eat my entire body weight in chocolate.....
This month, I have learnt to really appreciate my friends and everything they do both in Macau and back at home. Sometimes you have a day where you just need your friends to be there or have a Skype conversation in the middle of the night. I am so proud and love them all so much!
Well this is February's upadate. I hope you look forward to the next instalment in March!

Happy New Year!!!

Happy New Year to all bloggers!!

1st New Year's resolution is to keep my blog up to date. I'm not saying it is a New Year, new me, this will be something that I focus on! Other things include - devote more time to drawing, sewing and colouring for adults! I also want to be better at keeping in touch so there may be some snail mail surprises :) :) The usual - healthy eating and exercise more, but we will see haha!!
The last month has been lovely, Christmas in Macau is certainly different to that of home, it has been lovely to see my family and show them around. I'm sad as well that I didn't get to see my friends but I know that they will always be there and I am able to use Whatts App and Skype to catch up. I went to Singapore for New Years and what an amazing country it is! So may highlights, so I will mention a few: The place and people are so welcoming. It is a beautiful country which is so clean and I felt so safe there:
1, Sentosa
2. Firework display
3. Sky view
4. Gardens by the bay
5. Stroking a pink dolphin
I feel optimistic for this year and I am looking forward to seeing what it will bring!
Love always

November update

Wow,

I am in a new month already. What a whirlwind October was, so much happened and so much to look forward to this month. I am singing in a choir which I absolutely love and French and Spanish club are going really well. School life is so busy but all good fun.
I watched "The Others" - an introduction to slightly scary ghost films but hey baby steps! I checked out the new club in Macau - verdict, very pricey drinks and staff need to be a wee bit faster serving!
I am off to see " Tap Dogs" tomorrow which I am sure I will thoroughly enjoy.
As always I have been spoilt by my buddy, chocolate, coffee and flat comforts are always appreciated. She has been a rock to me in a week which has been pretty challenging! I had my flu vaccination today and have been advised to go to bed as I am all sniffly, snuffly and can not function!
so naturally I am typing my blog, always been a bit rebellious! I am looking forward to food on Sunday and a well deserved chill.
What else is going on in my life? My project is going well, although impossible to do, the aida count is so small I can barely see the holes and I will be dreaming about the subject for at least a year, finding a convenient time to do may be a skill I need to master!
I am missing my Irish super star's banter, cuddles and general awesomeness along with my all my other amigos!
Fellow blogees, I love you all!
Keep in touch!
Love always and forever
Vixters, (Vikrim. Vic)

Hello fellow bloggers,


                                    I can't believe how quickly time flies here! Weeks just disappear and life passes by so fast that I need to make the most of it.,
Recently, I have been at a loss , a combination of no sleep and walking into everything and generally leaving a trail of destruction has made me look at myself in a different light. I had  forgotten about my passion of sewing, I have therefore ordered some projects to help wind down after some crazily busy days at school. Dealing with pettiness from the other side of the world has not been easy which is why I feel some me time is important.
I have such a magical job and everyday brings new happiness and a challenge.
My own life has been pretty steady this week, no Hong Kong antics planned for this weekend, instead I feel a late night swim on week nights sounds like a lovely way to end the evening.
I have booked a last minute trip to Vietnam, a dream come true as I have always wanted to go since I saw 'Miss Saigon'
I shall be with my fellow Canadian travelling companion and one of the most influential people in my life!, someone who has taught me so much and helped me grow in independence and confidence.  I can't wait!
A massive shout out to my very special family memeber who turned 90 this week. So strong, such a character and I miss her and everyone dearly being so far from home
It is Halloween this Saturday and I shall be dressing up as ......... you will find out next week, it is the launch of a new club which is always exciting in the city that never sleeps.
As you can see from my blog, my head is everywhere this week. I feel that some rest and recuperation is something that would be beneficial.
Well love to all
Take care
