This is being uploaded instead of a "What I Did Wednesday" [WIDW] because my Wednesday is going to be incredibly boring but am going on a girls trip Thursday-Saturday so will photograph those days.. So here's the upload schedule for the next week. Wednesday (today): update, Saturday: photos of our Girls Trip [WIDW style] and Weekly Loves, and then from Monday onward it will be back to normal.
I've become aware of the fact that the word 'update' has been thrown around a lot quite recently here on my blog. That's probably because I am at a point in my life where I am moving from the-teenage-world to adulthood. It's a slow transition but it's definitely happening. Terrifying! It's weird to think that this time last year, I was living the extremely sheltered life of a year 12 (student) high school student and was set on the idea of studying high school education in the city. Well, here I am (not even 12 months later), I've lived in four different houses/apartments, been enrolled in two different universities and am now a full time student and writer. Terrifying!
I've been getting quite a few messages on my Tumblr that I thought would be easier to just respond here than keep replying to the same message on Tumblr. It's about my 'love life'. I wrote a post a few months back about Joshua, and how we had decided to take a break as we both wanted to take different paths in our careers. Well, that didn't last too long. We've been talking ever since and have realised it's in our best interests to end that break. I've spoken to Joshua about his role on my blog and at this stage it's going to remain as it has been. Joshua is an extremely shy person and doesn't want to be "paraded" all over social media/blog, which I totally understand and have to respect. I hope you can all understand that he just wants to remain in the background of my online life; he may decide in the future to appear but for right now I'm going to respect his wishes.
Finally, let's just take a silent moment for those (like me) who hate leaving their house. I've become more and more aware that as I get older I become more "hermit". I'm at the point right now where I almost fear leaving the house because I'm too anxious. The other night, I got about half way to a dinner when I turned around and went home (blaming it on feeling sick). I don't know how to change it, I just feel really anxious and nervous about social situations. It's a horrible feeling and something I wish I knew how to change. Any suggestions?
