Where to Begin.

As the title of this blog suggests, there are many places for me to start - from introducing myself, to why I created this blog and who or what inspired me to do it. Nevertheless, the best place to start is always at the beginning.

I'm Lani. Very nice to meet you :) To answer the aformentioned questions, my reason behind creating this blog was not because I was bored or had a lot of time on my hands (because really, I have none.. I should be studying for an exam), but because I felt an intense need to do something different for a change. I'm continually reading or writing my thoughts on scrap-paper or in journals. I often find pangs of jealousy rearing their ugly heads when a friend tells me of her new jewellery-making hobby or a new sport they've joined. I admit that I was disappointed that I didnt have something like that before where I could take time out, but am happy that I've finally decided to do something about it.

To bring you up to date on my current life-occurrences, I have a uni exam on Tuesday that I know for a fact is not going to go well. One of my best friends arrives home from travelling India and Europe on Thursday and I will be waiting for her at the airport bright and early with the biggest box of gummi bears you have ever laid eyes on. I haven't talked to my other best friend in a few days so I must do that soon. In the next few minutes, I plan on printing out the recipe for the meal I'm cooking my other-half tomorrow night, even though I've never cooked it before.. I shall let you know how it goes.

Before I go, I should point out that what I don't want is this blog to be just about me. I would rather post questions or dilemmas and hear what you have to say. Similarly, feel free to comment on my blogs or ask if you find yourself in a similar situation and need some advice. I hope to get back to this blog at least once daily - I can already hear the posts forming in my head.

Take care,
Lani.
