1. Half year review

The year is half over! Here are some things that happened for me:

January

• Started off with camping and fireworks on Cockatoo Island (man that feels so long ago now!)
• Getting stuck into improving my sewing skills and thinking about how I could make TalulaMei a going concern

February

• Seeing Miranda Hart live
• Tried out selling at Glebe Markets and realised that not all markets are equal
• Did the introductory massage course at ACM and decided I liked it

March

• Went to the Goodness Gracious Me workshop and thought a lot about the importance of gratitude in a healthy life
• LIFE series run by our church, and getting to talk with A about life and faith a bit more
• Autumn Spire Market

April

• Started singing at church again after a few months off
• John Mayer's excellent concert with Anna and Elsie and others
• Farewelled my old boss, Mark
• Staff retreat at Faulconbridge and meeting my new boss, Jeff

May 

• A weekend in Melbourne for the Big Hearted Business unconference - confirmation that I want to pursue a creative life and affirmation that it is possible
• Wonderfully relaxing holiday in Singapore with mum
• Less relaxing trip back to Malaysia for my grandmother's funeral

June

• Supanova - selling Kinds of Blue and Eternal Life and getting to hear the wonderful Robin Hobb read an excerpt from her upcoming novel
• Winter Spire Market
