My life as a grown-up

 Athena ― http://athena-allgrownup.blogspot.com

This blog is about my life now that school and college is over, and I've been thrown out into the mad world of adulthood. It's about everything that goes in my life, at work and home, but also my thoughts and opinions on a lot of different subjects, be it happy or sad ones. Definitely hope you will check it out.

I'm still alive

My life as a grown-up ― I don't know if anyone out there still reads my blog, but yes I realise I've been neglecting the old blog for quite some time. I guess I didn't really have anything worth writing about, or I couldn't think of any good subjects. BUT, I'd feel bad...

My life as a grown-up ― As I pre-warned you, here is my review of the Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey, which I went to see last Thursday. I was of course very excited, as the book means a lot to me, and I loved the Lord of the Rings films, so expectations were very high!...

Geeky squeeling

My life as a grown-up ― To say that I'm excited about the Hobbit appearing in cinema's over here in two weeks' time is an understatement. I think we've established by now that I'm a bit of a fantasy geek. I started getting into fantasy during my early teens and ever ...
