Colour Obstacle Rush



Hello Earthlings,

Today's post is basically just going to be me rambling about the Colour Obstacle Rush I did yesterday with my Mum, my Auntie Linda and Jack and I'll give the chauffeur/photographer a mention because I'm nice - Ayup Dad.

Anyway, I have wanted to do a Colour Obstacle Rush for quite a while. In my early teen years I would scroll through Tumblr being a cool kid and see those "bucket list" posts and doing a Colour Run would always pop up. So when my mum put "Do a colour run/obstacle course" on her list of 40 things to do at 40 list I thought that this would be the perfect opportunity to do one. So long story short, we booked it and did it. But you probably guessed that already...I knew you would. 

Anyway, after we got there and Jack tried throwing me into the lake we all plodded along to registration and there was the cutest pug ever and it bounced along with its tongue out. Very pug like. We signed in and got our fancy t-shirts and then watched the first lot of rushers (is that an acceptable name for us all?) start rushing and went around to the warm up.

Me being me aka the worlds most unfit 17 year old was ready for dropping to the ground after the first five minutes of the warm up but no I continued for the entire 25 minutes. Then queued up for the first obstacle ready to start.

Honestly it was such a great day, even though the powder did not taste nice it was great practically flopping on the obstacles and face planting onto the steps of the slide. Everyone was so cheery and happy doing the rush and there was no element of it being some sort of race which in my opinion made it a better atmosphere. The obstacles weren't too challenging and there was lots of paint powder stuff to go around. I loved every second of it even if all my muscles have ached today. 

Now I shall leave you with some pictures from the day: 


Until next week,

Phrases I Hate

Hey Earthlings! We all have those phrases or quotes or sometimes just words that when we hear them it makes our blood boil and our neck do that funny thing where you kind of go "bleurghuohui". You know what I mean? I've taken a few of them, listed them here and told you exactly why I hate them. Let me know if there's some more you hate. "There's someone out there worse off than you" Yes, this may be the case and I hope they come out of their situation feeling all the joys of spring but just because there is someone out there with more issues than you're feeling, it does not mean your experiences and feelings are invalid. If you are trying to comfort someone and make them feel better about their situation in what way is, "ah well don't worry, Tina down the road is way worse off than you are" going to make them feel better? EXACTLY. It won't. End of, let's just entirely blow this phrase away. "Respect your elders"...

Doris goes to see Captain Marvel | FILM REVIEW

Hello dearies!  I hear the new film that's 'hot on the block' recently is this Captain Marvel one, and little old Doris does like to be hip, trendy and down with the kids *throws the equivalent of a swagger sign* so decided to hop on the bandwagon and go along, booking myself in for the 12.00 (pm just to clarify) showing at the local cinema. I'm currently cutting down on the whole chocolate/cake/biscuits scene, so sneaked a small tub of Pringles into the cinema with me...I have to say, I felt like a bit of a rebel eating food that I'd bought from somewhere else whilst inside the cinema, it was an adrenaline rush! If you're wondering what flavour Pringles they were, I obviously chose the best ones aka sour cream and onion as I'm not some sort of monster.  Anyway, I did buy one of those Tango Ice thingymabobs as I hear that's too what the cool kids like to have at the cinema. I could only have cherry though as the machine wasn't working properly, t...

Goodbye 2018, Hello 2019

Hello Earthbugs! I'm back and hopefully this upcoming year will be a lot better post wise than 2018, if I tell you the truth I don't really know what happened. Quite a few times during 2018 I felt all out of sorts and not really motivated to do anything, which for me is horrible because I thrive off having a goal to get and so on. Writing has always been a passion of mine and my blog allows me to have my own little space on the internet which I have always loved the idea of so 2019 is definitely the year that I attempt to throw myself back into blogging. I hope you're happy to come along on that journey with me! I decided to combine the goodbye 2018 post and hello 2019 post instead of doing separate posts this time, so feel free to grab yourself a cup of tea or something stronger if you like and let's go. 2018. I think I can safely say that 2018 hasn't been the year for my family, we have gone through a lot of battles and hard times and somehow come out of t...
