Time.

That's the thing about starting a new year... sometimes it just flies on ahead and leaves you clamouring behind it to catch up. The holidays are over and the first week back at work is done. I have no doubt that I'll wake up tomorrow and it'll suddenly be February. Or something.

London's had some very wintery weather these past few days. We had snow snow, lots of ice and freezing conditions, which made for fun days catching public transport into work. (When I say fun, I actually mean 'just a trifle challenging'.) It's supposed to stay cold this weekend, but I think the worst is over for now. Sad. I would've quite liked a snow day this time around. The last time London had heavy snow, I was at home in Sydney waiting for my Visa.

Today marks six months since J popped the question in Prague. Six months! I haven't done a smidge of wedding planning in that time either, unless you count scouring the web looking at things I can't physically touch. Although, there are only three months to go until I head on a plane and zoom down under for my two week visit home - so maybe I'll be able to work on the whole wedding thing yet!

J and I have already spent quite a bit of time doing some planning for the year ahead, which is looking to be pretty monumental right now. It's too early to say what we'll end up doing this year, but I'm very much looking forward to it. Good times all round. So how's your 2010 been treating you so far?

  1. Hasn't it been 5 months? Or can I not count. Either way, time is flying by! I heard about all of England's snow. We're still green over here! Besides my car not starting Jan 4, the rest has been peachy :) I figure it's good to get all of my bad luck of of the way early!

  2. Monumental year ahead here as well. Next week I am handing in my 80-page thesis that will make up a third of my degree grade. Then exams exams exams until mid-July, graduating, and looking for a job.
    So what I've done this year so far? Mostly working on my thesis (almost done), and watching lots of TV (I don't think I'll ever be done with that, haha). Christmas is only two weeks gone and already feels so long ago.

  3. I'm hating the snow! My 2010 has not been the best so far, but I'm hopeful that the only way is up...

  4. 2010 has actually been kind of great. We have lots of plans and I think/hope things will work out very well.

  5. Lots of snow on this side of the North Sea too and I'm not a big fan. Snow looks good in pictures, but in reality I don't particularly love salt stains in my brand new leather boots.

    So far 2010 has been uneventful and I'm really hoping it'll stay that way. Last year was hectic, I'm ready for some calmer waters.

    Congrats on getting married, I can't believe you've managed to not let it control your life so far. I was completely obsessed from day one :P Do you have a dress yet?
