First Post!!

Hello all you random peeps on the interwebz! So, this is my first attempt at doing a proper blog. I am following in the footsteps of my younger sister (her blog is http://bonssblog.blogspot.com), as I do with so many aspects of my life!!

The main reason I'm starting this is because I'm currently preparing to go on my trip of a lifetime after months of trying to decide what to do next with my life. I leave in less than 6 weeks (aaaaagggh!!!) and I'm very excited!! And very anxious, let's be honest, as there is still so much that I need to get sorted! I'm in the process of trying to sell half of my possessions to fund my spending money, and have been doing this at car boot sales and eBay (check out laurelle1006 if your interested in buying any of my goodies!!). I've also handed in my notice on my job, which means I have nothing to come back to (apart from my beautiful ma and pa!!). Whilst this is scary, I need some time to just have fun, explore and decide what I want to do for the rest of my life!

If I'm being totally honest, part of me is hoping that I might receive some sort of an epiphany while I'm travelling which will reveal what I should do on my return ... either that or that I will meet a hot multimillionaire who wants to marry me :-D It could happen!!

Anyhoo, I hope to use this as a forum to release my random reflections and to update people on how my travel preps and my actual trip (when I get out there!) are going. So stay tuned!!

Oh, and I love knitting, crochet, cross-stitch and I'm a nail technician in my spare time, so I'll also be boring you with anything which is of interest to me in those areas :) I have a website for my nail stuff called missmanipedi.co.uk, so check that out too!

Right, that's all for now, before I send you all off to sleep!

Sweet surfing,

Laurelle xoxo
