Since I've Been Gone: No Excuses, Life Happened

Life has been hectic. There are no other words to describe the last couple of months. I'm not going to start listing out all the reasons why I haven't been posting, that's pointless. We all know that sometimes life likes to make it's way into the way we normally run things, and that's exactly what happened to me. Since the last time we talked so much has happened, serious family issues, health concerns and the tedious day to day troubles.

About a week after my last post I was heading to a mate's 22nd birthday party and to be honest I was quite excited about the night ahead, it was going to be interesting. As I rocked up to his front garden my phone began to buzz and it was seriously the weirdest thing, since I'd left home less than a half hour before then. My sister's face pops up on the caller ID and I answer, she asks me if I'm alone, so I step away from my friends to listen. I'm informed that my grandma had been diagnosed with breast cancer. Everything else that night was pointless, I was a mess. Since finding out this news, she's had surgery and is now on radiation, and I would have to say that this would be the main reason why not only my life, but everyone's life around me has become a little different. Hopefully she's going to be okay but for about a month after the initial diagnoses we were all just in a state of waiting which was emotionally tolling.

Hold on, there's not only bad news there is good! I did amazing on my final assessment pieces at uni last semester and my 19th Birthday is coming up soon. My Black Milk Clothing collection has also been growing...rapidly, which has brought great joy to my life. Work has also been good, very stressful, but good and I'm finding it incredibly satisfying.

To try and get back into the swing of things, I'm going to do a couple more "Since I've Been Gone" posts, to catch you all on the things I've been loving, wanting and hating.
