first post/twenty ninth birthday

I turn 29 today.

No, that's ok you don't have to sing, I'll get embarrassed. But yeah sure, bake me a chocolate cake if you like...

This is the first day of the last year of my twenties.

I have no issue with turning 30. That is not what these here ramblings are going to be about. I won't be counting down until my life is over. I am looking at 30 as a beginning.

I am in my final year of a three year journalism degree which i have dragged out for four. Once i'm finished i hope to move away from the town in which i'm currently living..probably across the country..to find a job that will hopefully mean being more than a wage slave.

In 365 days my life will look vastly different. I'm excited about that. A little apprehensive as well.

I hope that writing about this year will help keep me motivated and inspired to seek change and growth and be brave about it.

This year will also be about the beginning of something that fills me with hope. I was single for ages (more about that later I think) and then I met someone at the end of last year. At my best friend's wedding. He was the best man, I was a bridesmaid..can you all say cliche!

You can read a little about it if you go visit my very best friend mrs t here. Things are going smashingly. I am still amazed by it. And by him. I apologise in advance because we are still at the sickeningly sweet stage..you have been warned.

I'm looking forward to talking to you interwebs.


Now, where's my cake?
