Day 365 - This Is It.

Wow. I reached the end of the year! Didn't expect that!
So much has changed over the last year it is unreal, I'm glad I picked this year to be the year to blog, so I can keep a record of how far things have come. It seemed to go from one extreme to the other, the end of the year being the good extreme. I mean this photo speaks the truth -
I have learnt so much, lost so much, gained so much over the last year. I could write for pages about how much my life has changed since the first of January 2010, but it would take ages, plus I would be getting highly personal. Thank you 2010 for being the best year of my life so far, even though it started out horribly.

Thank you God!

I will not be continuing this blog next year, so I hope you appreciate this final day of Project 365! I hope you have enjoyed my blog altogether. It has been fun to do. I may make a new blog... we'll see!

Now, if you'll excuse me, I have a 2011 Spade List to write!

Day 364 - Tollymore Picnic...

I had a picnic in Tollymore with my boyfriend today! It was very nice :) Then we went back to mine to watch Inception. WHAT A CRAZY FILM. I would write more, but I'm kinda tired. My bad! Good day though.

New Years tomorrow! Can't wait! Going to Patricks again, to hang out with him when the year changes :)

Day 244 - Here We Go...

Back to school! I've decided to be optimistic... this year is gonna be better than last year. I'm gonna have fun, and enjoy myself, despite the fact that I have a lot more work to do! I guess having one less subject will also make things better. What does excite me is that they've brought back home study this year, which means I can go home at lunch time on Wednesdays! :DHere's to the year ahead!

Day 1 - 'The Teenies'... that's odd!

So it's 2010... I'm still trying to work out whether it's "two thousand and ten" or "twenty-ten". Maybe just to be more confusing people will start using Roman Numerals all the time and start calling it MMX.

Anyway, before I start rambling over the name of the year...I'll explain myself. I've started a blog (this is it, by the way) for various reasons. Last night, or rather, earlier this morning, a few friends and I composed what we called our "Spade Lists". It's a list of stuff we wanna do before the end of 2010, for example:

#2. Learn to play the ukelele,
#7. Watch the sun rise on the beach,
#11. Buy a cowboy hat (a proper one),
#20. Drive a car.

It's called a Spade List because it's kinda like a Bucket List, except that's slightly depressing 'cause it sounds like we're gonna die at the end of it. So I have a list of 30 things on my spade list. One of them is -

#21. Create a blog.

Hence why I am now talking nonsense in this little space. Believe me, you're gonna read a lot of nonsense here. So this blog is hopefully gonna be about me fulfilling my 30 things on my list, or not fulfilling them. Another main part of the blog is gonna be based on number 26.


#26. Project 365.

Project 365 is a project where you take a photo every day for a year. I guess it's a good way of looking back over your year and how much (or little) you've done. How sentimental/nostalgic! So apparently doing this also makes you a better photographer - that would be very useful!!

So yeah... here's todays photo - if you can't tell it is meant to be the number '2010'. And that is my Spade List underneath it! If you're really sad/desperate to know you might be able to guess at least the first fifteen on my list if you turn your head to the side and meake a well educated guess at what some of the words are. I wouldn't bother if I were you!

So how do you end a blog? Maybe I guess I'll just say "I'll keep you posted"... like you're really interested and everything! Who even reads blogs out of interest??
