Packing a punch

So I've started the long arduous journey into my suitcase, well packing it anyway. Not an easy task.
What do you even pack for a 6 week journey with just a backpack, notebook, camera and Dr martens, I mean even Bilbo had a dwarf company heavily armed with excellent hair and a wizard.

Lists are my worst enemy I have this thing where I start writing something then I realise my handwriting sucks so I start over, then I make a mistake, then I've forgotten something, the list (pun intended) just goes on. So I started today with a mental list and visual stimulus dragging everything out of my wardrobe, that is worth wearing and just staring at it for a while. I think it worked my brain is ready for this. Until I have a break down realising I've forgotten everything and nothing is working.

Time for a change

I haven't posted for a long time I've been finding my feet in life again you know the feeling where you're putting your feet to the floor but not moving anywhere? Yeah well that was me.

At 23 I figured I should be finally deciding on something for my life and after loosing someone very close to me a few months ago it opened my eyes to trying out all the things I've wanted to, so I've created a jewellery store, moved forward with makeup and special effects and booked a 6 week trip to Middle Earth better known as New Zealand. A lot in the space of 4 months for an introvert who prefers the company of books and the sofa. But I figured this is it, this is all I have and if I do nothing, then I don't deserve to have the friends, family and health to do things.

I'm rambling I know.

Well my blog is now open for business again and in 48 days it will be my scrap book for 6 glorious weeks of travel and adventure.
