One Year Ago Today...

This Blog was Born!

I really can't believe it has been a whole year since I sat down one day in summer, bored out of my mind, and decided I was interesting enough (ahem) to be a blogger.

This little blog has gone through many changes over the year. It started off with a couple of really terrible designs, and a completely different name. Luckily I don't have visual evidence of that era! Life as I Know It was a good name for a while, but I wanted something more unique and more me!

Here is the evolution of Sinead in the Sun so far!

And I'm already itching to change it again!

And on top of Sinead in the Sun, this year also brought the beginning of my love for design and therefore SineadElle Designs!

I have had so much fun getting involved in the blogging community, and more than that I am happy with myself for keeping it up so long, I did not think it would stick! I may not be the most regular, or the funniest, or the best dressed and whatnot, but I like to think you readers stick around for a reason :)

I wish I had something exciting planned for you, a giveaway or something. But I am beyond poor, and it takes a lot of time and energy to organise them! So just know I am super grateful of each and every one of you, and I love hearing from you through comments and emails. And I really hope you continue to interact with me through our little niche in the internet!

WATCHING: Charmed. Lots and lots of Charmed. I love re-watching all the seasons, the 90's fashion, old school special effects, so much magical scandal... Its fabulous!

READING: I'm feeling very book schizophrenic at the moment. I'm currently reading Game of Thrones, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, and Broken Silence. Plus I just re-read The Hunger Games and Catching Fire in 2 days. This is what being unemployed does to me! 

DREAMING: About Disney, about getting a job that doesn't terrify me (i.e something easy) about really delicious, cheesy, bad-for-you food, about road tripping, about the beach...

EATING: A cheese and feta cheese toasty that is currently cooking away...

NOTICING: How weird the weather is currently, windy but warm, sunny but cold... Make up your mind!

WORKING ON: Stopping myself re-designing my blog again! Anyone need their blog redesigned to distract me?

WEARING: It usually consists of pjs or shorts and a singlet. I miss winter fashion

PLANNING: A road trip to Auckland to meet with some of my soon-to-be Disney friends! And my 21st party, which is coming up in 2 weeks!!

FEELING:  Hungry. My toasty is calling me!

Thank you for a fabulous year! Here's to another...
