For anyone that has been reading my Route to Thirty blog, this is kind of a side blog to that even though it could be read completely separately. Due to being thirty at the end of this year, I have been re-accessing my lifestyle and things I do.
The idea of this blog is to find new skills (if you hadn't guessed from the title, lol). The reason: I was working on Lord of the Dance recently and saw one of the Wardrobe women learning to Irish dance when she wasn't working. It looked like so much fun and reminded me of all the hobbies and interests I have slowly given up (many down to Theatre, as the unsocial hours and long days make it hard to do anything, let alone see friends and family). The other thing that triggered it was my friend @CaraNeedsHelp said she had read my blog and liked it, but asked if I was going to set myself any aims. Thinking about her comment and me watching the Irish dancing the other day made me think, why don't I try and find some new skills.
I have previously done lots of random things including: Air Guitaring to compete to be a finalist for Ireland; cut my friends hair using an online guide; completed Go Ape (even though I am not very good at heights) and used to do Ju-Jitsu. I have no idea how this blog is going to turn out, but I am willing to try and find new skills to try, to push my boundaries and maybe even something interesting to add to my CV (also if Karl Pilkington can do new things, so can I!). At the moment, this blog will run up to my thirtieth birthday too, but we will see how it goes.
And so it begins...
