I finished work on Thursday, dragged my bum to the gym and as I settled down on the sofa I knew there were 4 glorious days ahead of me!
I woke up on Friday and just pottered most the morning. The Sun was beautiful and it was actually really warm outside. I watched 'The Land Before Time' which bought back lots of happy memories of watching it on Bank Holidays as kids.
I also decided to do some themed nails as I never really do them anymore, but as I have the 4 days off I decided to spend the morning doing them.
I am really pleased with how they came out..... they actually came out much better than I expected which is a first as it is usually the other way round.
I couldn't pick what colours to do so I just did all of them in an Easter bunting type fashion. The most shocking thing is both hands actually look pretty darn good, even if I do say so myself!
I then headed to the pub with my sister, it was a huge let down. Had to pay to park, the garden was shut due to repainting and the service was awful. So we headed over to Reigate park and had a lovely time eating ice creams and just sitting in the sunshine.
You really can't beat just sitting in a park on a sunny Bank Holiday.
We then saw 'Zootropolis' on Friday evening and that was FAB! I really really enjoyed that. It is a really good film with a strong message of acceptance and racism which is really needed at the moment!
Saturday was a pretty chilled, did lots of boring cleaning related things and I watched Hairspray for the first time and I enjoyed that a lot. It was much better than I thought, again another film tackling racism! I thought it was just about a larger girl wanting to become famous but I was wrong there.
Then Easter morning arrived and Matt and I got ready and headed to my Grandma's. I picked a little green bird dress as I thought it was really cute and 'springy' to brighten up a rather drizzly bank holiday.. Apparently 1 day of sunshine was enough!
Dinner was lovely as usual my Grandma really does make the nicest food! I know everyone probably says that but I truly believe mine does haha! We spent some time vegging out after eating all the food and chocolate and Matt and I headed home to get ready to go and see the new Batman vs Superman.
I have to say I did enjoy the film even though I think the title was misleading and should of just bee Batman and Superman, and the first half of the movie was kid of pointless. However overall I enjoyed it!
And then in the blink of an eye Monday rolled round and we didn't do much except have lunch out and then headed into Crawley. On a spur of the moment type thing Matt talked me into buying the fabric I need for my Cosplay I want to do in the summer!
If it isn't obvious it will be a star fleet dress a science officer. I want to do a female Spock and I am really excited to make this! I've never Cosplayed before but I've always wanted to and I think this will end up being really cool. I wont lie I opened the pattern and went HOLY SHIT WHAT DO I DO? So I have arranged to go to my Aunt's so she can help me because I am worried I will screw it up! But fingers crossed it will turn out good!
The bank holiday was very nice even though it seemed to disappear much quicker than I would of liked. I felt well rested and had a lovely time off!
I hope your Easter was a nice one and you did some nice bits too!
