Annual Update

Wow, totally neglected this blog. I mean the New Year's post is still showing on the home page, that should be pages and pages back, hidden in the archives gathering metaphorical dust. Guess it just goes to show how much things like a job distract you, was so much easier to blog when I was unemployed!

Anyhoo, I'm still alive (Just! Some pretty negative thoughts have crept in lately but I'm still here), still working (meh), still making music (still just me!), still fat (did lose a stone since October but then Christmas happened!) and still single (though I did find love in 2011 and it's still kinda up in the air at the mo - officially though it's over).

Guess I should do the annual New Year goals:

• Lose weight (This is a given! I have found out that 20 min of weights everyday is far more beneficial than 45 high intensity cardio 5 times a week for losing weight (weird that but my recent weight loss is proof of it.).
• Join/start a band. 
• Pass my music exams (hopefully with distinctions). Oh I haven't mentioned I've been having lessons have I? Well it all started around May/June. I wanted to improve my vocals. I know I have a voice but my breathing was absolute pants! Anyway after a few months of this and the aforementioned relationship I came to the conclusion (with some heavy hinting!) that I could teach singing and guitar as a profession hence my decision to do my grade exams (I'm also doing grade 5 theory and once that's out of the way will move onto grade 8 guitar and poss take on another instrument). Anyway back to the goals....
• Save money. I need a holiday and the only way to do this is to save. I do have £150 stashed away in a savings account so far but as it doesn't automatically come out of my bank account and what with Christmas and all I haven't added to it these past 2 months.

So there it is. Not bad for an I'm ok, still alive post. No wonder I setup this blog, def couldn't fit all that into one tweet!
