Is there a better way to help you start writing an introduction to a new blog post than with a cup of tea on one side and a Rolo Cookie Blondie on my other? No, I thought not! Also, you can’t catch up on life without a cup of tea or coffee present. It’s just not right.
Anyway, let’s been frank… It’s been a while. And whilst these last nine months have literally flown by and I’ve been super busy, I have had time here and there to dot down a few blog post ideas that I am going to start working on. I wish I could tell you that my life has been all glitz and glamour (well it was for a week) but the moral of it is, I have been extremely busy with just normal life. Mainly working and trying to play adult – which at twenty-three years old, I thought I would have mastered by now but then suddenly, life throws one of its curve ball at you.
So instead of going into all details, because you’d literally be here for hours I thought I would dot down a quick and simple bullet point list about what has been happening with me over the last nine months.
So, here it goes… (In no particular order)
- I turned twenty-three. That’s right twenty-three. I should be getting better at this adult thing by now, right?
- I got a new job and moved to Bristol in March. From a small seaside town to a quirky, up and coming city – it was quite a change at first but I think I’m settling in nicely now.
- My new job is totally awesome and so diverse. No day is the same.
- I drove combine harvester. That’s right a combine harvester. Just FYI – I don’t work on a farm as part of my day job, one of my client to linked to the fresh produce market – so we went checked it out!
- I went on holiday to Monaco. Its super glamorous, has a beautiful historic story and it’s own royal family and plenty of super yachts. And when I say super yachts, I mean ‘super yachts’ – they were like floating mansions on the water with multiple helicopter pads and cars on board, ready to hit the open road when they docked. It’s my new favourite place.
- I walked the entire Formula One Track whilst I was in Monaco, which was pretty cool.
- I went on holiday for a week abroad with hand luggage only. For anyone that knows me, I’m a major over-packer. How was that going to work? But I tell you something it is surprising how much you can actually fit in those small suitcases. Now I’m officially all about the hand luggage when I go on holiday.
- I reunited with my uni gal-pals. There was bowling (we get rather competitive, I must say!), shopping, lunching and plenty of Prosecco – no surprise there!
- I had someone in my life, who would not take ‘NO’ for answer to something.
- I learnt that even when you think everything is sorted and will be okay, life still throws you some surprises.
FIVE THINGS THAT HAVE MADE ME HAPPY IN THE LAST 6 MONTHS
- I turned twenty-three, which meant that more celebrating (and Prosecco) was required.
- Having fresh flowers in the flat and being able to open all the windows and doors. I miss being able to do that in the winter!
- Reuniting with my uni gal-pal – hopefully we won’t leave it as long next time.
- Find my love for health and fitness again. Time to hit the gym!
- Spending quality weekends with my mum. Now I live in Bristol, she’ll come up and spend weekends with me, just shopping and catch up.
