award, joy, marriage, love
...
OMG... What a few weeks I have had! So I started my new job and I am totally loving it!!! The people are fab, I love the work and I couldn't be happier work wise. I hope this continues in the New Year...
But my biggest news of all... I'M GETTING MARRIED!!!
After years of negative posting and praying for someone to love me as I do them yada yada yada, I found this person in March of this year and 4 weeks ago on the 20th November, he proposed to me
2009 has seriously been the best year of my life!
I love my boy so very much
I haven't been this in love in my life and I knew a very long time ago that he was 'the one'
. I wish there were words for me to describe how I feel...
In the same week as me starting my new job and getting engaged, I was also awarded a Computer Weekly 2009 Blog IT Award for the Best Company/corporate: SMEs - Check it out
here - There are a list of other winners also.
So as you can see, I have been rather busy with all that, not to mention Christmas preparations.
I will update you all properly soon, but I did have to tell all of my lovely Opera friends my news... There are a few of you out there who have read my blog for years who will realise *just* how big this is and how much it means to me.

xmas, love, christmas, happiness
...
What a weekend! Didn't exactly do much, but I had possibly one of the best weekends ever. Spent it with my lovely boy and then with our friends on Sunday
. Couldn't be happier!!! I felt a real sense of completion last night... Something I haven't ever felt before.
So it's only a week until I start my new job! I just cannot wait! It's going to be so cool to be doing something I have wanted to do for so long. I'm excited and nervous. I really feel like I can make this work, and I am really looking forward to working with the people that I will be working with. They seem like a lovely bunch and I think I'll be very happy there!
And of course Christmas is nearing and I am starting to get excited about that for the first time ever... Thinking about presents and stuff. Not an easy task.
Must go out and buy cards for people soon. YAY! Feeling totally different! Things are so amazing - I really hope nothing bad happens and that things continue to be so rosy.
*happy sigh*

happiness, success
So I have had an amazingly successful week. I got a new job and made some cool new friends on the Dev scene
I'm so pleased about this year in general. I also had an amazing weekend with my adorable boyfriend and feel much better. Very little can get me down.
The only bad news I have received is that my Uncle jeff has died. That was terrible news. I really admired and looked up to the man. He was such an intelligent and successful person with good morals, a loving wife, two children who loved him and went on to be successful like their mother and father. He will be missed greatly by us all.
So I start my new job on the 16th. I am really pleased as I have worked so hard to get this job. I am most excited and have much planned! Finally I am doing something I want to do!!! I was very fortunate to have been offered both roles i went for. It was a tough decision, but I think I have chosen wisely.
I really feel that I have taken control of my life this year which is a far cry from last year. I am unfortunately being targeted daily by an ex at the moment via Twitter, which I think is just pathetic. He needs to understand that I have moved on and anything that I write or do is not aimed at him. I was over him when it finished (a long time ago)!!! Very odd and at times concerning behaviour! I will not name and shame him though as I find that counter productive.
Anyway... I must continue to plan for my new job and the future in general.

vegetarianism, 2008, Twitter, drinking
...
Firstly I would like to wish all of my friends a very Happy New Year and may 2009 bring you much happiness, luck and prosperity! I sure as hell am hoping for some this year! 2008 was a pretty mixed year for me, but I think I can honestly say I am VERY glad it's over! 2009 will be a great year if I have anything to do with it
So, New Years Resolutions/ Goals...
1. Become a vegetarian for a week - Yup that's right! I am going to try out vegetarianism for a week. It's a promise I made to my friend Ed and I actually think it's going to be an interesting and eye opening week! I love my meat, so to be doing this is will be tough. But it's only a week and I am sure I can manage it - I might even like it and continue with it - who knows? I will be keeping a daily blog on this - starting from the 5th Jan
2. Cut down on drinking - 2008 has seen me get EXTREMELY drunk and I have had a fair few hangovers from hell! So this year I am going to do my best to drink in moderation and look after my body.
3. Look after my boyfriend more - This year I am going to make a conscious effort to pull my weight around the house. His flat-mate is moving out and it will really give me a chance to show him what I am really like! I
can cook and I
can clean etc etc, but I think I have been too stubborn and selfish to show him what I am really like. So, 2009 will see me become a domestic goddess
4. To launch my site www.girlsngadgets.com and make it a global success!
5. To network and meet like minded people rather than putting all my effort into people that don't deserve it! I am sick of being walked all over and from now on, I will choose my friends carefully!
So there we have 5 of my resolutions/ goals - I am sure there will be more to add as time passes, that's only natural. Lets hope I can make this year a successful one and turn my average life into something very exciting. The potential is there and I intend on making it a reality.
Once again, a very Happy New Year to you all!
