empty glass

Starting things on a new foot.

well its a new year, I thought I'd (finally) write this blog. I've put it off long enough. But anyway I don't really have any new years resolutions, I usually make them as i go along.

I do hope this year goes better than last year.

This probably wont be all that interesting, I haven't written in quite a long time, and I do think of myself as quite boring. But there have been a lot of times when I think I don't want to forget this I should write it down but have not got round to it.

I've realised I write mostly when I'm upset, I am not right now, but that's for another day.

What to write in first post? maybe a bit about myself.

I'm 22, studied to be a chef but not working as one. I want to be a sommelier and possibly one day own a wine farm and make my own wines. Haven't thought of a name yet. I'm a dreamer and have big dreams but hardly remember the ones I dream while I'm sleeping. Oh well. I love the ocean but not swimming in it(I know), just living by it and seeing it and smelling it. Swimming in it freaks me out because of the thought of how big it is!!!! and the creatures are mind boggling. I do enjoy the occasional surf in the sea though, yes strange but don't get me started. I grew up on the gloriously sunny island of Mauritius (that's where the ocean thing fits in), I speak French . I also spent some time in Cote d'ivoire. I like funny words and phrases.

Can't think of much more, thought I knew myself pretty well, seems not. Or can't think of anything right now.

Oh I read quite alot. And I love to travel.

I read somewhere that Alicia Keys is starting the year not with a glass half full but completely empty and I thought by golly, if she can do that so can I. Of course she can afford to frolic and do whatever but anyway I've decided that this year will be a year of filling the glass with awesome and interesting adventures. I consider my life quite the adventure because strange things happen to me at times. Usually when I'm alone,so people aren't always there to witness my awesomeness but also happens at times when I don't need to be embarrassed. It could be just the fact that I'm quite clumsy, I trip over my feet more often than I care to mention, I don't know how I haven't broken any bones yet.

Considering all the glass is still empty........... : )
