Day 02 - A picture of you and the person you have been close with for awhile.



Well I guess the obvious person is James.

We met in Lithuania in 2007. I was a wanderer trying to cope with trauma of the three years just gone by. He was a wanderer deciding to take the path less travelled through life.
We have always reckoned that we were broken when we met and we built ourselves up again using each other's strengths. Perhaps that is why we are so similar in so many ways.
We moved to Ireland together after only 5 months. In hindsight that was INSANE!
However, it worked and our time in Ireland cemented what could easily have been a holiday fling.
Though I think we both always knew that it was more than that.
Folks, I simply adore him.
I do.
Nearly five years since we met and I still get butterflies when I see him.
I am always accutely aware of when he walks into a room (though that could be a result of him being 6ft 5!).
He means the world to me and every day I thank my lucky stars that our paths so randomly crossed half a decade ago.

Turning 28.

Well. It happened. I turned 28. You know, ignoring a manic depression which lasted all of 20 minutes, I'm pretty ok with it. Rather than shy away from the fact that 30 is just around the corner, I've decided to confront it. Head on. "How?" I hear you ask. Well I have decided to celebrate the final years of being a twenty-something by embarking on a '30 things to do before I'm 30' challenge. I've been working on it for weeks. My friends here in Edinburgh have been really encouraging and I think together we have compiled a pretty mega list. Here we go (in no particular order) 1)Read the BBC top 100 books 2)Bungee jump (I should mention here I'm afraid of heights) 3)Go zorbing 4)Learn a new language 5)Visit the Sistine Chapel 6)Make a quilt (I've always wanted to. I blame Winona Ryder) 7)Visit Tiffani in Utah 8)Parachute Jump with Agata 9)Raise money for charity 10)Do the Great Scottish Run (ugh. The idea pains me.) 11)Sell something

Life of Lu 7/6/2012

I love Edinburgh. I think you should know. I love it truly. Every day I feel more settled. Every week I feel new friendships grow deeper. I really am content. So content that I sing. Poorly. I should apologise for that. I really like my new job. Sometimes I feel my head may explode with information. Then it digests and I feel capable again. It is nice to use my brain again. It does help that I have wonderful colleagues. They make it easy to love the job. I will be working with them for at least 7 more weeks. Then I finish my training. After that... who knows? Euro 2012 fever has taken over our wee flat. It bores me terribly but the boy loves it, so I pretend. I pretend quite well. I predict Russia to win. He reckons Portugal. I hope I win! I have a new cousin! And one on the way. I wish I could meet them soober than October. Hurry up October! I should mention that we're popping over in October. Pints? Anyone? Lastly, I received an amazing gift at the we

January

I found out yesterday that I was one of the winners of the photography competition that I entered as one of my 30 before 30. My photograph will now be used in a calender as the January image. How exciting! What do you think?
