I’m not the only one, right? Who at this stage, before a trip or before a conference, with the packing done and the arrangements made, gets nervous. I can feel the jittery butterflies swarming in my belly and the warm heat that comes from my heart beating that little bit faster. I’m not the only one, right?
The nerves are there but so is the excitement.
Four days in Melbourne.
Lots of time with friends.
Lots of bloggy goodness to soak up and turn into wonderful plans.
Time to relax, to meet up, to eat and to laugh.
Time to shake off the dark clouds that have loomed too near in the past month. Or two.
So the nerves pale in comparison to that. The fear of getting lost, forgetting something, doing something absolutely stupid, pales with that. Feel the fear and do it anyway right?
Ooooo, exciting!
Hi! I’m Melissa Walker Horn. Around here, they call me Suger. I’m the Chief Blogger and doer of all the things here at Suger Coat It. Blogging since 1901; I love a casual ootd, taking photos, and writing about things that irk or inspire me. I love wine and cheese, long days at the beach and spending time with my family. I make stuff for the internet over at Chalkboard Digital. You know, living the sweet life.
Go forth and be great Hun. Have an amazing time.
Thank you Trudie. 🙂
I’m a little bit nervous but mostly cos I still don’t know many people and I’m worried I’ll sit around alone like a big fat loser… or that people will roll their eyes when I sidle up to their group to butt-in and pretend I have friends!
Oh boo to that! You’re fab. Come and find me, you’re always welcome wherever I am. 😀
Totally! Looking forward to catching up with you then x
Oh yay! You too lovely. You bring the curly whirlies, I’ll bring a lighter. 😛
My nerves won’t kick in until I have to introduce someone to someone else. That is when my mind goes blank and I stand there like an awkward clutz trying to remember the name of someone who just told me their name 2 minutes earlier. Excitement outweighs my nerves. =)
I’ll see you there! Will be nice to give you a squishy hug in person. 😀
And I’m sure you’ll find your voice. Positive in fact.
