Faraway Skies

I've been attempting to write on Faraway Skies since January but everything I write down never seems to feel right. It's like a nine month long writers block. But I'm back (and hopefully to stay) so I won't bore you with the details of what happened during my hiatus. But I will write you a lovely little list of the major things; just so you can get to know the older, wiser (one does hope) Chelsea.

1)The braces are gone. Corn on the cob>life.
2) Exams were passed...even maths to my surprise.
3)Life as an A level student is not at all like I thought it would be. College, as it turns out, is more stressful than the wait for season six of the Vampire Diaries.
4)Remember that lovely yellow hair I was sporting since this post? Well, that's gone! Hallelujah. From now on, listen to my mother on anything hair related.

And finally:

5)I finally ticked something of the incredibly long bucket list: Go to Paris.

So to summarise in five points, that's been my life for the past nine months. Fun and hectic. Joyful and a whole lot of stress! But really, all you could ask life to be.

You know Buddy? The human/elf of the film Elf? Well...I am channelling his optimistic outlook this Christmas. I keep squeaking at the mention of anything Christmasy, I am just too excited to hand out my presents, eat overcooked (or undercooked; you can never tell with my nan) turkey with the family and snuggle up and watch those cheesy low-budget Christmas movies. Gotta love the Halmark movie channel!
