a mixture of emotions?

Since my blog started off as my space to speak openly, here I am...sat in my pjs (yes, before seven thirty pm...rock & roll), drinking water (for healthier teeth), planning my night ahead (blog reading, post writing & emails), in my slightly messy room but I just really felt like I wanted/needed to blog...I got the urge! :D

I used to blog a heck of a lot more when I first started, that would mainly be because I didn't leave the house very often & when I did it would usually end up with me returning home very soon (within the hour usually). But now life is feeling very much the opposite, I'm hardly ever in the house. Since passing my driving test & having a car (two of the best things to ever happen to me) I've been out & about exploring, going on little adventures to places I wouldn't usually go. I have well & truly gained my freedom plus what feels like another chance to start living again.
 
The reason behind this post is to explain what is coming up soon that I'm feeling a mixture of emotions about...*drum roll please*...

I'm going to my first ever blogger meet up!

 
I'm seriously so excited but I can also start to feel myself getting anxious about it too. I have never been to a bloggers meet up, so I'm unsure what to expect. I'm still finding it slightly difficult to call myself a blogger but I guess I am...
 
I'm anxious about everyone who I'll meet, I'm anxious about how busy the locations will be, I'm anxious about the driving & parking, I'm anxious about the amount of traffic, I'm anxious about what people will think of me, I'm anxious about what the day will hold, I'm anxious incase I don't manage to click with anyone, I'm anxious about how I'll feel on the day, I'm anxious about if I'll have a panic attack....jeeezzz, I'm anxious about quite a lot!
 
I suppose I have every right to be anxious though because I'm going to be meeting people I've never met before & spending pretty much the day with them, eating lunch with them & just generally socialising with them...gosh, I sound like such a freak. If any of you are checking me out ahead of the meet up, I'm not that crazy....I promise! :)
 
Right, now that's out of my head...on to my night full of checking out blogs (of people who will be at the event, gotta do my research ay? :) ) , reading my favourite blogs, catching up on emails (I sound so much more professional & organised than I actually am, don't be fooled folks!) & writing blog posts...WOOHOO!!! sounds like a great night ahead if you ask me & I'm honestly not even being sarcastic there either.
 
My question for you fellow bloggers, have you attended a meet up? Let me know a little how it went & how you felt about it? If any of you bloggers are checking this out & are going to the meet up on Saturday, please leave me a comment & let me know how you're feeling too.
 
Even though I do feel pretty anxious about it all, I'm going to try my very best to attend on Saturday. I feel better just for getting it all out of my head & on to screen. As always, I'd like to thank you very much for reading.
 
A random little extra photo, that has very little...infact, it has absolutely nothing to do with this post. But I went to my friends parents house the other day, their chicken had given birth & here is one of the cute little chicks.
 
 
That is your lot folks, from a mixture of emotions to chickens...don't get much more randomer do you? :)

  2. Try not to worry about it too much, the first meet up I went to was great despite my nerves. For some reason I'm more anxious about Saturday than I was about the other but I'm sure it will be fine

  3. I have every faith in you that you can do this! I just know that you will be writing a blog post about it, saying how it has been one of the best things you've done! You went to a concert, you can definitely do this! I know it's daunting. I hate going somewhere where I have to meet loads of people but just be confident, be your usual chatty self and they will love you! you'll be fine :) xxx

  4. I've been to a few blogger meet-ups, I always feel a bit nervous to begin with but I don't think I've ever met anyone who wasn't totally lovely! I think most people at a meet-up are in the same boat and once you've introduced yourself to someone you've instantly got a topic of conversation - ie. blogging! Good luck on Saturday, you'll be fine I'm sure! :-) x
