New Stuff

In the interest of showing that my life is about more than eating all the cake, here's a glimpse into what's new in my world:

1). Just in case you've missed my incessant tweeting about my new living arrangements, I have finally moved out. This has taken me the best part of a year and so I am indescribably relieved to no longer be living with my parents. Not that they weren't a treat, I just don't think they need to see their daughter stumble in drunkenly on a Friday night any longer.

2). The whole world is getting married. I've never felt particularly pressurised to find myself a husband however the thought of people my age walking down the aisle is always a little unnerving (committment phobe, moi?). Obviously I wish them all the luck in the world (what with the rocketing divorce rate and all...jokes) and await the facebook photos eagerly as Weddings are facestalking gold!

3). Driving lessons. These are currently the worst part of my life. I think it's safe to say I'm not a natural. My main reasons for learning are because my dad told me to and the fact that I want to be able to go to a drive through McDonalds on my own.

4). I signed up to present at the next Ignite session in Liverpool. I probably shouldn't broadcast this fact as part of me expects to drop out when the fear gets the better of me. I mean I'm all for stepping out of my comfort zone but a five minute presentation on what Sex and the City has done for feminism (yes that is my topic of choice)? I think I may have stepped out a little too far.
