Achievments

[~*Dare to Dream*~]

Seeing as its nearly the new year I've been reflecting on stuff that i've achieved this year and wanted to share some positive achievements.

1. Working out in austria for the ski season - Was amazing, made so many new friends, and lasting happy memories.
2. Progressing my paddlesport coaching, and improving my paddling in general - doing things i never thought that i could and was afraid to do before.
3. Getting Back together with my boyfriend even though it was hard work and caused alot of pain, we've still got bits to work on but its getting better.
4. Helping heather, one of the work experience girls gain confidence in herself and pass her coaching qualification.

If anyone wants to share thier achievements feel free!!
