Wake Me Up When Sept- wait...

September already?

Time has sure flown by since I blogged last, I honestly thought it wasn't that long ago. My life seems to change a fair bit even in the sparse of just four months.

Change is such a frightening thing, yet such a wonderful and amazing adventure that is life. To tell the honest truth I am glad to be where I am right here and now. To be in freedom again, with no university to worry about while I defer for a year, with the prospects of Elliott moving to Adelaide in a little over nine days and with my hair just a few inches longer.

With my newly found freedom I've had a lot more time to spend reading books (Time Quartet series by Madeleine L'engle), watching The Office season 2 and possibly start walking again.
I've also had more time for friends and family, which is a very positive bonus for me in my period of freedom. But it also means I am consuming just that little bit more of coffee weekly and digging into my parents pockets in this time I don't have a job.

I've dug up one of my old passions from home ec high school days, baking sweet things. In the past few weeks I have baked 2 batches of muffins (the first one was about 25), 2 batches of scones (with dates and the other with sultanas) and it's getting more progressive as the days roll on.

Being through all of this has made me come out a person with a more positive outlook on life, I know at times it won't be as easy, and even in this time of great change I have had struggle, but I will just persevere.
