I decided that the best and most positive way was to create two posts; one listing some of my (slightly random and more blog-friendly) favourite things/events of the year and another post talking about the things I've learned from this year. It's a nice way to reflect on the past year and take stock of what has been a mammoth of a year.
So, without further ado, and in the immortal words of Julie Andrews - these are a few of my favourite things (from 2015).
- Family and friends - they have to go top of this list!
- Freckles
- The plethora of Agatha Christie whodunnits on Radio Four Extra to mark 125 years since the great authoress was born
- Dark 'n' Stormy cocktails
- This tiny snippet of TV gold
- Sharing recipes with friends - always love to try new and exciting foods, although there's no pre-requisite for the food to be either new or exciting
- Spelling
- The London Legal Walk - and everything that happened as a result
- The countryside
- Netflix - oh so many hours indulging my love of trash TV and rewatching classics like The Thick Of It
- The word "Yes"
- The word "No"
- Reaching the two-years-since-I-was-discharged milestone
- Talking all night
- Sleeping all night
- Getting a job that I love
- Walking
- Holidays (especially if they come with a surprise room upgrade and are a decade overdue)
- Singing in the Royal Albert Hall again
- Writing essays and taking exams - not always my favourite thing to do, but worth an honourable mention as I spent so much of the first part of 2015 doing them!
- The Self-Love Series
- Realising I have more than one shoulder to cry on
- Discovering the band Chvrches: going to see them live and getting tickets for their special gig next year at the RAH
- London
- A Summer of watching cricket and drinking beer
- Finding pilpel and their amazing falafel
- Robing rooms and court rooms
- Dancing (with or without shoes)
- Being surprised by my new love of watching the Tour de France
- Puns
- Theatre-going
- Tea - all day erryday
- Celebrating whenever and wherever you can
...and so much more!
