So it has been an age since I last wrote - to the extent people are telling me to get my arse in gear and write a new blog! In a positive way I'm glad people enjoy them, now stop hassling me already!! (jokes!)
Again it has been a pretty uninteresting month. In fact I am a little overwhelmed with how boring my life is at the moment!! I am used to being fun, drinking silly amounts, making inappropriate comments, waking up in random places - occasionally outside a dance studio or with a text from the police saying I have been reported missing! (This genuinely happened!) But as it currently stands, I am sleeping in my own bed, waking fully sober. Watching This Morning with a brew and maybe a couple of biscuits if I feel particularly dare devilish!! And for that mid afternoon treat I usually make some lunch and wash up!! Urgh - I make myself feel sick!
Two of my bestest friends - Clare and Giselle ran the marathon last weekend and raised ridiculous amounts of money for Help the Hospices! They dedicated so much time and effort to it and it was amazingly inspirational! Now - I have been saying for yrs that I would like to run the Marathon or Maldon Mud Race (only some of you will know this) or do the 3 peak challenge or swim the channel! Something challenging that I can be proud of accomplishing! However, to date - I have done none of this!! So now, feeling very motivated by Clare and Giselle I am determined to do something!! I have looked into Swimming the channel but it is tres expensive!! But I am welcoming any suggestions!! I literally need to do something with my life and soon before I start finding excitement in completing a suduko puzzle or entering take a break competitions. I genuinely walked past an allotment the other day and considered for a few minutes the prospect of growing my own vegetables and herbs!! I am 24yrs old, this is not right!
Also, I am barely dancing at the moment and this makes me really sad!! I have spent 4yrs of my life training in something that is seeming vaguely pointless at present! I've got my exams for my fitness instructing course in a couple of weeks so at least I'll be able to get a job doing that but it not the same, so if anyone needs a dancer or choreographer......!
On a lighter note - we have a housemate!! yey! And she's a friend of a friend who comes with an amazing coffee machine!! Perfect!! And I now have company in the evenings which prevents me talking to myself or singing power ballads at the top of my voice and breaking the neighbours windows!!
More good news - Marrakesh is less than a month away and this is keeping me positive despite the horrendous weather at the moment! Hose pipe ban my f*****g arse!! Looking forward to heat, sleeping in the Sahara, riding camels and sand boarding with two of my favourites!! And I'm sure Martin will enjoy a week of peace and quiet in the flat without me nagging for him to get off the bloody playstation!! I thought football was bad enough but fake football really takes the piss!
Looking forward to my 1st rehearsal for the Olympics next fortnight! Kinda hoping we just copy Beijing and they let me loose with a drum to make a lot of noise with! YEY! Or maybe i can just run around with a massive flag! I might also try and steal a medal! or the olympic torch!! either sound quite tempting! :)
So thanks for listening to my thoughts that turned into rambling verbal diarrhoea, even tho it started a tad depressing!! I will keep trying to get a life so I can blog more often with exciting stuff!! If you don't hear from me for a while it's probably because I have taken up knitting and crosswords, with maybe a touch of gardening for some light relief!!! Dear God I hope I blog soon!!
Much love, Laura xxx

March 16th - because I am too lazy to blog let alone think of a good title!
Good Afternoon,
It has been over a month since I last blogged - I am officially rubbish!!
When I first had this new yrs resolution I totally thought I was going to blog once a week with all the details of my interesting life!!
Turns out - my life isn't that interesting!
Anyway, my dear friend Anahita told me to blog again - so here I am.....again! Wondering whether just to lie and write down loads of fun, excitin stuff that makes me look like I am really interesting or bore you with my mundane shit that makes my parents lives look like a non-stop party in comparison! But just in case someone who knows me well reads this, exposes my lies and makes me look like a twat I shall be truthful!! Lucky you!!!! I can almost see the nomination for a nobel prize in literature here before me!!
So, we are now in the flat! and it's looking lovely!! Moving in day was actually pretty stress free as lots of our kind chums came and helped us!! my Dad wasn't loving it so much when he realised I'd failed to mention it was a 2nd floor flat!! SURPRISE!!!
Still don't have anyone in the second room so (quick plug) if you or someone you know needs a room in London then take it before I end up selling my soul and dignity for rent money!
In other news, Martin's Birthday was last week and I got him tickets for Legally Blonde!! Just writing that sentence conjures up my repressed fears of dating a gay boy!! But he wanted to see it! Straight but has a thing for pink glitter and chorus lines?! go figure!! haha i'll stop taken the piss before I starting plugging for 2 housemates rather than 1!!
I also just read the book 'The Help' - if you have not read this book then you must!! I am rubbish at reading and usually read the first 2 chapters of a book and then put it back on the shelf to gather dust and for people to look at and think I am intelligent!! But I couldn't put it down! Not in a 'the pages are now a little sticky' kind of way - just amazing writing! Now I am in search of another good book - any suggestions?? And Giselle if you're reading this then I will read 'Yes Man' at some point!! Promise!
Zumba as always is good - numbers keep growing which is amazing!! And I've now been accepted on a course to do my qualifications as a fitness instructor which should be good! Although if they ask me to teach spinning I will cry!! It's just so painful!! If i'm going to get a sore crutch and walk around like John Wayne then I would at least hope it was due to riding something more pleasurable then a bike!! :)
Auditions are still non existent - so many people want you to work for free?? I dont know how they think that is possible!! It angers me how undervalued artists are! Yes I may not be able to perform brain surgery or do business on a blackberry but the world would be a miserable place without a TV, Radio, Theatre, Shows, Concerts etc. All those multi millionaires would be the first complain if they sat in their personal box at the theatre looking at an empty stage!! Rant over!!
Oooohhhh, excitin news in terms of other resolutions!! Something could be in the pipe line to break a guiness world record on TV! Killing one bird with 2 stones as Helen would say!!! haha but I don't want to jinx it so I wont say too much - just keep your fingers, toes and eyes crossed for us!! I also want to get on 'This Morning' just because my love for Philip Schofield cannot be suppressed it seems!! Mind you I'd probably find a way to get on only to be interviewed by Eamonn bloody Holmes! And what a twat he is!!
I think thats all really!! As Forest Gump would say "Thats all I got to say about that". Short and sweet but I intend to be better and blog more often! I will try my very hardest!
Hope you all have a lovely weekend! Love and sparkles, Laura xx

We have a flat...but no flatmate!!
Good Eventide!
Well it's been a fair while since I last blogged, a lot as happened!! Not particularly life changing to the human race but enough to keep me amused in life and keep me from desperately searching for things to keep me occupied like alphabetising dvds or colour co-ordinating twigs!!
I feel it's gonna take a while to write this blog tonight - not because of the interesting things i have to say but because I'm currently wearing a toning belt!! Have you ever tried one of these?? I bought it the other day - it's basically a belt you put round ur stomach and it electronically pulses making it contract. In lamens terms its a cheats way for toned stomach!! However - it feels like ur being attacked by the borrowers jabbing safety pins in your belly!! Gonna give it a couple of weeks and see what happens if I can stick out the pain!!
Roisin is not impressed with my cheating equipment as the conversation went:
Roisin - "Laura - Your face looks in pain, stop using it!"
Laura - "No, it's fine once you get used to it!"
Roisin - "Yes, thats what victims of domestic violence say!"
Now the reason I am with Roisin is because Me and Martin are currently crashing on the floor of the house due to house hunting being a bitch and we are now technically homeless!! So glad my hard work during my degree and post grad led to my amazing career and earned me this luxurious life!!
The flat we put an offer in fell through! I blame Martin as I think it's because he has chosen a career in which he wears leggings and dances around like a girl with other men and God frowns upon that - thus disliking us!!
So the flat hunting continued treating us to some of East Londons finest shit holes. There were properties that had Anne Frank been living in - she would have turned herself in to the Germans! At least they knew what a shower was (a bad taste joke I know but had u seen the "house" u would deem it understandable!) It had mould on the walls and a carpet that was so black it could have been covered in anything! Probably semen and blood! And as we looked around it was met by a beautiful sound scape of barking dogs which I can only imagine later turned into screaming babies and police sirens!!
But - finally there was light at the end of the tunnel!! We found a lovely flat and our offer was accepted!! Hooray!! However, it's a 3 bedroom flat and we don't yet have a flat mate to join us there!! So unless we find someone soon, I shall be applying for a job in Stringfellows to keep the rent up!!
But we have a place to live that doesn't smell of piss and thats all that matters!!
Zumba is still going well!! I delivered 1,000 leaflets through letter boxes by myself in the rain and snow and got a few more people interested. So it was worth it. It's always a difficult one walking in the snow. I sometimes think it would be more dignified to just go for it, even if I slip and fall it's probably still more elegant than shuffling around tentatively looking like you've just dropped a load in your pants!
Also - Picked up some more classes in Clapham South as well so that's excitin!!
Other highlights have been theatre trips!! I went and saw midnight tango on press night and saw lots of celebrities like Lulu, Arlene Phillips, Louis Spence, Holly Valance and good old Pamela Stephenson who I only noticed because I looked down and thought 'Who the fuck is that with her baps falling out?' - so much that I nearly caught a bit of nipple! But it was fabulous!!
And then - I saw Singing in the Rain the Musical which was AMAZING!!! Theatre like that makes me ridiculously happy - you must all go watch it!! After watching the show (and also seeing 'The Artist' at the cinema which was also amazing) I am now on the hunt for a 1920's cloche hat!! I want to pretend for a second I am quite lady like!! And then I will probably burp or say 'cunt' and the whole illusion will be ruined!! :(
Auditions are still pretty much non existent as they keep asking for dancers 5'6 and above and despite the amount of time I spend on Ebay I haven't yet come across a growing potion!! Scientist are soooo lazy and I believe responsible for the amount of unemployment in the perf. arts industry!
Marrakesh holiday is getting exciting as we've now booked to go camel riding and sand boarding!! Actually can't wait!! In need of some sun, sea and sahara dessert!!
Well - I think that's all folks!!
Thanks for reading!!

From 23 to 24
Good Morning!!!!
Getting bk on the blog as it's been a while!! I would like to say it's because my life has just been so crammed with new exciting things and movie premieres but alas, it's just pure laziness. As you can see I'm writing this at 11am (whilst watching This Morning) and that literally translates to the fact that my soaring career is...well...not soaring. More flapping around about and inch off the ground!!
So since my last blog the flat we wanted fell through!! rubbish!! so more viewings were had, more shit holes were stepped in!! I actually looked at one place where the kitchen was sooooo small the fridge/freezer was in the living room!! An the guy showing me around tried to act as tho this was perfectly normal!! sure, lets just go all the way and put the oven in the bedroom and i'll sleep in the bath! what a knob!! BUT we've found another place so fingers crossed for this one!! We have one more week in this flat until we are couch surfing!! no pressure!
On a happier note - IT WAS MY BIRTHDAY!! I now write this blog as a 24 yr old - urgh!! I did manage to stretch out my birthday celebrations for as long as possible which seems to be a particular talent of mine!!
Pre Birthday, Martin took me to see Les Mis! Hadn't seen it for about 10yrs and forgot how epic it is! Had tears in my eyes as soon as the overture started - what a gay!
Then I had the mother over for lunch!! I say this as though she came over for my birthday - NO, she actually just wanted a parking space in London!! obviously feeling a little parched came in for a brew and it turned to lunch with a usual toilet pit stop! Cheers Mum!! I jest, she brought me gifts! I was v. happy! :)
For my actual birthday I had to work, started my new teaching assistant job which was interesting!! I have soooo much respect for primary school teachers. I really do dislike kids - alot!! They're so bloody annoying!! "I need the toilet!", "Can you tie my lace?" NO! "I want my mum!" GO HOME THEN! lol you can see I'm going to make a great mother one day!!
Then....People came back for Zumba! I actually made a profit!! Now I didn't make millions, thousands or even hundreds but I made money and they came back!! Fingers crossed tomorrow's the same!! The evening was completed with a few drinks in good old spoons with some lovely chums!!
Then obviously came my kids birthday party!! I had soooo much fun - definitely proved I am still a kid trapped in this ageing body!! it's not fair - i need to get hold of some proper directions to neverland! second star to the right and straight on til morning is a tad vague!!
The night consisted of stuffing our faces with pizza and old school classics such as wagon wheels, ice gems, dip dabs and lots of haribo!! Then there was pass the parcel, smashing the pinata, pin the tail on the donkey and donuts on a string which resulted in a lot of chocolate smeared down my wall and mirror!! and donut chunks on the floor. That was fine until the landlord showed up next morning and martin casually stood up and placed himself in front of the wall to hide the mess! can't believe we got away with that one!
Unfortunately the rest of the week has been back to normal!! searching for jobs, packing up the flat and trying to cover up the bags under my eyes!!!
A small gem has appeared though as I have booked a holiday to Marakesh with 2 of the besties!! extremely excited for this!! having to cash in some shares to cover the payment but absolutely worth it!! Gonna go plan the trip on Friday so will have more news next time!!
I think thats all for now - I have spent an hour writing this (was slightly distracted by my guilty crush - Philip Scholfield! U no im right!) Now at midday I need to retain SOME dignity and pride and maybe get showered and dressed!!
Much love to all xx

"And if you just climb over the dead animal, you'll find the master bedroom"
Good Evening!!
I've just got back from teaching my first Zumba class - and people actually turned up!! Now I'm not depicting an image similar to Jesus surrounded by 5,000 followers BUT there were people!! And enough people to not be awkward!! RESULT!! In fairness, I had some chums to make up the numbers for which I am extremely grateful but it was a start!!
But before I get carried away and start nominating myself for business woman of the year I think i'll wait to see what happens next when they actually have to PAY to listen to my voice and watch me jump around like a dickhead! My concern is, it's my birthday next week so that'll be highly depressing if I end up sitting in a room by myself with only dance mirrors so I can stare long and hard into them wondering where it all went wrong!!
Now, the reason I am hoping....no....PRAYING my Zumba classes are successful is that I found out I have to move out of my flat by the end of the month and I have truly seen what my current financial situation equates to in housing! I warn those of you with a sensitive disposition to stop reading now!
Ok maybe thats an exaggeration but me and the fella have spent the last week being estate agent whores, desperately trying to find a 2 bedroom flat at a similar cost to what we've been paying at our current flat. To summarise - our landlord obviously knows nothing about business or house value and has subsequently given us a steal!!
We have spent the last week walking round flats that I wouldn't re home a tramp in. I have stepped over cat litter trays to find myself in the box room that literally is...A BOX! I have smiled politely at the agent whilst inhaling the potent smell of urine whilst trying to utter a positive comment such as "ooh, that's a nice.....door handle???"
And since when has "close to the tube station" meant a 15minute trek through back streets of London. Even the foxes would regard that as too far!
However, we finally came across a little gem!! The current tenant had about 10 cats there (obviously a lonely single man) so it offered a certain acquired scent but other than that it was lovely! And unlike all the other properties I could actually reach out my arms without hitting my hand on the other side of the room!! So fingers crossed we'll put an offer in!! and if that is rejected then depending on the landlords preference either Martin can put something else in or I shall let them put it in me! you gotta do what you gotta do hey!!
As for my search of finding my inner child I have decided to have a kids birthday party and this week have been looking into buying a tamagotchi! do you remember these things?? they were amazing!! I loved and treasured mine until I went on holiday and left them in my mums care - she killed them all!! I should be thankful however that it was due to a retardedness of technology and nothing else or my growing up could have been a lot different spent in social care!! Anyway, hopefully I shall be the proud owner of a tamagotchi in the near future!! :)
It is now a week until I turn 24!! eugh!! That really is the near future!
Any way, I am blogged out for the evening, it's time for a brew!! :)

And here it goes....
So it's early hours of Jan. 1st 2012 approx. 00.10am and whilst most people my age are laying in a gutter in their own sick and faeces at this annual celebration I am with some of my favouritist chums sipping champers with a belly full of pizza about to find out my fate for this Year!
We've decided to make a New Years Resolution each, write it on a piece of paper and then put it into a bag to then pull a different one out at random!! I pulled out mine with anticipation - this makes perfect sense if you know people such as Gary Bovill contributed to this game! Luckily I pulled out Scott's resolution:
"To create a you tube channel or blog for the year".
So here I am with my shiny new blog! Now it's just a case of being interesting and having something witty, brilliant a simple genius to say...how hard can it be??!!
So welcome to my life!! I am a twenty-something proud Essex girl who after training to be a dancer for god knows how many years is finally in the real world wishing I'd listened to my Dad when he told me to keep dance as a hobby but get a 'real' job!!
I have spent the past few months going to pointless auditions where they look at me with pity as I stand next to some other girl who is tall and practically wearing nothing more than underwear, thick black fake eye lashes and so much fake tan she smells of warm babies vomit! Unfortunately being 5'2, paler than snow white and sporting more layers than a bloody onion i'm "just not what they're looking for"! I have vowed this year I shall sell my soul to the commercial dancer devil and attend more auditions looking like some sort of drag queen that they seem to love and see what happens!!
And of course I'll write all the disasters and triumphs in my blog! So fingers crossed!!
Next week I officially become a qualified Zumba instructor - this is because I need the money to fuel my love for food and pointless shit on ebay and maybe have something left over for the daylight robbery that is renting a flat in London!! Rather excited but nervous that only one person will turn up and I will have to spend an hour overly smiling to compensate for the sheer awkwardness of the situation whilst planning my suicide!!
I will finish this blog soon before I sound like a cynical depressive but last point I need to make is that my own New Years Resolution is to do something each week that makes me feel like a kid!! Over the last year I feel I have become too boring and serious and this is quite simply not ok!! So even if it's just having jelly and ice cream for pudding I shall do something that sticks a middle finger up at adulthood!! And that's me!!
So here's to an exciting 2012 full of fun, laughter and more amazing memories! And maybe breaking a Guiness World Record.....I won't go into that one, rather leave abruptly on a cliffhanger for dramatic effe.....

I have spent the past few months going to pointless auditions where they look at me with pity as I stand next to some other girl who is tall and practically wearing nothing more than underwear, thick black fake eye lashes and so much fake tan she smells of warm babies vomit! Unfortunately being 5'2, paler than snow white and sporting more layers than a bloody onion i'm "just not what they're looking for"! I have vowed this year I shall sell my soul to the commercial dancer devil and attend more auditions looking like some sort of drag queen that they seem to love and see what happens!!
And of course I'll write all the disasters and triumphs in my blog! So fingers crossed!!
Next week I officially become a qualified Zumba instructor - this is because I need the money to fuel my love for food and pointless shit on ebay and maybe have something left over for the daylight robbery that is renting a flat in London!! Rather excited but nervous that only one person will turn up and I will have to spend an hour overly smiling to compensate for the sheer awkwardness of the situation whilst planning my suicide!!
I will finish this blog soon before I sound like a cynical depressive but last point I need to make is that my own New Years Resolution is to do something each week that makes me feel like a kid!! Over the last year I feel I have become too boring and serious and this is quite simply not ok!! So even if it's just having jelly and ice cream for pudding I shall do something that sticks a middle finger up at adulthood!! And that's me!!
So here's to an exciting 2012 full of fun, laughter and more amazing memories! And maybe breaking a Guiness World Record.....I won't go into that one, rather leave abruptly on a cliffhanger for dramatic effe.....
