I've got butterflies in my tummy as I write this and I can't wipe the grin off my face.
Yes, this week's 52 Week Project is brought to you by The News of a LIFETIME!
I snapped this week's selfie as I went to bed last Tuesday night. I couldn't contain my elation. It was bursting out of me, forcing a huge smile to appear on my face. It stretched my lips as far as they'd go and I heard giggles and *squeeees* coming from my throat as I jittered and shook at the thought of this amazing news.
My fists clenched and my teeth clamped together as huge waves of excitement and joy took over my body.
What is this {orgasmic} news, you ask?
The news is that I am going to New York!
I am going to BlogHer in 2012!
I am being fully sponsored by the amazing Kellogg's (all HAIL Kellogg's) to spend a week in New York in August 2012 to attend the world's biggest blogging conference.
This is AMAZING!
When I shared my exciting news with the gorgeous Jess from Diary of SAHM she replied, 'That makes me want to eat Coco Pops every day for the rest of my life!'
Spot on Jess! I would eat Kellogg's Coco Pops by the bucket load to make it to BlogHer '12 in New York! I might just have to make truck loads of Mars Bar Slice instead!
This trip means the world to me.
When Gareth from Kellogg's shared the good news with me, he made my year! I honestly haven't felt so elated since I saw the two lines on the pee-on-a-stick test when I found out I was pregnant with J-Man back in 2009.
I've never been overseas, and it wouldn't have been on the cards for at least another 10 years. Having my children so early in my twenties meant that I skipped the European/Asian/South American backpacking right of passage. There have been times when I've really felt like I planned out my life the wrong way round when I made these choices.
But this trip certainly helps to quell those uncertainties. Because I'M GOING TO BLOGHER, BABY!!
