10 things I learnt this weekend

So, apparently I do 10 things posts once a year, after my birthday party. It's actually quite a good idea. It means I learn something every time I mark the milestone.

1. Double birthdays are indeed a great idea. You meet new people, get gifts from strangers and get twice as big birthday cake (hip hip hooray to Ola, the cakemaker).

2. Planking is addictive.


3. The cheesiest songs on the playlist make everyone get up and dance (Nah Neh Nah by Vaya Con Dios and Never Gonna Give You Up by Rick Astley. As well as Moondance in Michael Buble's version. And let's not forget Holding Out For A Hero by Bonnie Tyler).

4. I can't get drunk anymore. Neither I want to. I sip G&T all night long and get back home nothing but tired.

5. I need exercise! A couple of hours on the dancefloor and I can't move my legs in the morning. Don't even start me up on my feet.

6. Some people will come running to your party despite the weather or any other obstacles. And then will take 200 pictures, some of which are never to be presented to the public.

7. Best gift of the night? A voucher that entitles me to get a cat. Seriously.

8. Party poster is a terribly great idea.

9. I love my new smartphone. Despite (or because) the fact that it's now stuck to my hand permanently.

10. And the best thing is that my birthday is actually next Sunday, which means I may have some more celebrations if I want to :)

  2. I was going to suggest that actually :) A few friends missed it (or couldn't face going out of their humble abodes in the pouring rain) :) I'll keep you posted :)

My name is pronounced Kashah, not Kas-ya. I was born in Poland and some years later decided to make my home in a bonnie Scotland. This blog was to be a place to post balanced opinions about being an expat, literature and life in general. However it has become a place to rant a bit, cry a little and admit I'm addicted to some aspects of popculture. And also to promise the readers now and again that one day I will write a book. And I will, I promise.
