I took the biggest sigh of relief as i watched Big Ben on the tele strike 12! Finally what can only be described as one the shitest years I’ve had was over.

It’s funny though, out of the sadness can come a much bigger brighter light. In April my relationship with my boyfriend of 10 years derailed in the most spectacular way. I was consumed with thinking about it 24/7, there were tears, shouting and all sorts of horrible-ness.

But it did lead me to change some things which to be honest I don’t know if I would have had it not happened.

I decided to say bugger it i’m going to do what i want for a bit. So..

• I booked a trip to Borneo to meet some friends and then go it alone in Singapore
• I went for a run on San Fransisco harbour on a work trip
• I decided to stand up for myself at work and got exceeds at the end of the year
• I went to Rome with my sister
• I bought myself a bunch of flowers from a florist i’d been stalking on instagram
• I went on a Bivvy with some adventure queen strangers
• I did a Jessie Palvelka bootcamp
• I painted my face with glitter for Gay pride
• I went to Cuba
• I bought a 1974 Renault Estafette van to convert into a camper

So out of the worst year in a long time actually came so many exciting things.

I’m making my new years resolutions right now so I’m gonna make sure they are exciting and make me happy! And take a little bit of advice from my nan (see below)

What are you gonna change or do in 2019?
