4. Fully paid for my own holiday for the first time.

5. Tried ROPE WALL YOGA for the first time.

6. Tried POLE DANCING for the first time.

7. Went for an impromptu trip, where tickets were booked just days ahead.

8. Experienced the Songkran Festival in Bangkok.

9. Second year in a row where I’m spending my birthday on an airplane, flying far away from home.

10. Starting a full time job. I hate commitments. 

11. Visited Taipei for the first time.

14. About to visit Dubai for the first time, tomorrow.

15. Had a mini health scare and realized how important health is as you age.

16. Experienced how it’s like not to have your feet function at 100% and vowing never to take it for granted + Cryotherapy.

17. Being able to give a portion of my salary to my parents: One step towards repaying all that they’ve done for me.

18. Bought my first designer item for myself hehe #treatyourself.

19. Starting this routine of going to the gym twice a week (BUT I need to start eating healthily damn it.)

20. This quarter life crisis of not enjoying my job at all but plagued with the responsibility of having to earn a living.

21. Will I ever fall in love again? I just feel so freaked out or emotionless :')

22. Attended my first baby shower. My friends are having kids! :O

23. Went to my first Laneway Festival and The 1975 was SO great but I can’t stand the smoking and booze all up in my face. #nerd

26 Things That Will Happen Now That It's Autumn

The list includes pumpkin, refusing to get out of bed, and people complaining about the cold.

So, it’s actually Autumn now. I know I’ve been thinking that it is ever since it turned September 1st and I found myself wishing I was 11 and going to Hogwarts. But as of Wednesday, Autumn is officially here, and boy does the English weather know how to throw a curveball. That being said, this is definitely my favourite season ever. Bring on the ankle boots. You will wake up, get out of bed,…

Hey so

I know most of you weren't here for last year, but as an introduction to my blog I did a series of 23 quirks you should know about me for my 23rd birthday. Well my birthday is almost here again and I will be doing something relating to 24, but 24 what? Any ideas?

You'd Be Surprised How Easily You Can Adapt To...

Living without a microwave.

What?! No microwave?! That's right. No microwave. This is partly because a microwave would just be one more thing to buy and find a home for in our limited kitchen space and partly mostly because microwaves use a lot of electricity and electricity is expensive.

"How do you eat up your leftovers?!" one may ask. Well, we have a 2 burner gas stove-top and that is what we use to heat up anything and everything. I'm very surprised at how little of an adjustment this was. And there's an upside- when we lose power, we can still heat things up! Just turn the knob and light a match and you're good to go.

The one downside of living a microwave-less life is a slight rise in the number of dirty dishes (a pan to heat the food up in and a plate to eat the food on) but somehow we manage.

Psh, microwaves. Who needs 'em?

Also, I have been 23 for a whole week now and am pleasantly surprised at how I am progressing on my list of 24 Things To Do Before I Turn 24. So far I have already read 2 books - Mere Christianity by CS Lewis and Through the Looking Glass by Lewis Carrol. Maybe this year I should read 40 books written by people named Lewis. But probably not because last night I started a new book called How Huge the Night by Heather Munn and Lydia Munn. I love my Kindle. Plus on Monday I was about 10 feet from an ex-professional baseball player. I didn't meet him and he's no longer a pro, but it's heading in the right direction! (I was also about 5 feet from a whole team of professional baseball players but I have yet to figure out how to break the ice with a pro athlete. Any tips?)
