I’m freaking out here #nnb2011

Snapshot of my business cards!
When I said I was attending Blogopolis I didn’t really give it much thought. It looked like fun. I wanted to meet up with some of my favourite bloggers. I wanted to see Melbourne. And the master classes didn’t seem that bad either {Ha. All about the learning, I am}. But now, just over a week out…
I am freaking out!
Firstly I quit my job and thus ended up with MUCH LESS MONEY than I had before, then I started realising that making my way to Melbourne was the easy part. When I got there, I didn’t know anything about where to go from there. I worried I wouldn’t find anyone to roomie with me {I did. I have TWO very cool roomies Caitlyn & Rhian}. And then the worst of it set in…
What would I wear!!
So here I am. Pulling my closet apart trying to piece something together. Limiting purchases {budget, remember}. Trying to be cool. There were a few nights there where I actually lay awake worrying about it. Have you EVER heard of anything as ridiculous as that? Well, I did. So wish me luck, ok? It turns out that this conference bizzo is actually high stress. If you let it be. 
Sooking complete. I just thought I’d update you all on my progress.

  1. It's all good roomie, we will have the BEST time! I don't really know anyone either and the nerves are setting in for me too, but I'm sure we'll be so busy they'll disappear! xx

  2. If it makes you feel any better, my sponsorship was only confirmed and paid yesterday, I haven't even actually got a ticket yet (cos they're sold out, but I'm working on a second-hand one!). I have no idea what I'm going to wear and have only just realised now that I might need business cards… (There are places that will do them for me on the spot-ish, yeah?)The only good thing is that I live just out of Melbourne, so transport and knowing where I am going isn't a problem.
