2015 State of the Union

What happened in 2015:

My goals for 2015 were all about moving myself towards stability. I wanted to really invest in moving myself towards being a properly set up, comfortable grown up. My priorities were:

  • Having a brilliant first year at the BBC and excelling in all areas
  • Nurturing my relationship
  • Saving money
  • Continuing to grow my outside-work income streams
  • Moving to a more grown-up home base

I’m really pleased that nearly in all areas, things went well. I have learned so much at the BBC in my first year, my relationship is going from strength to strength and I’ve moved to my own place.

The areas that struggled more were saving money. This goal is diametrically opposed to moving to my own place! God, its expensive.

But all in all, I’m really happy with my progress. This is a marathon, not a sprint.

Life list items that I completed:
  • Visit Tivoli Gardens in Copenhagen at Christmas
  • Visit New York
  • Produce a great event (UX Stories)
  • Go to a chocolate making class
  • Go to a cocktail making class
  • See John Legend in concert
  • Experience ‘Above the o2’
  • Go to London Pride
  • Go to a Chelsea match
  • Go to Winter Wonderland in Hyde Park
  • Start a pension pot
  • Move into my own place
