Delicate

Continuing with the theme of the last blog post. So I can’t believe that I’ve been to a wedding now. There was so much love and magic in the air. It hasn’t changed my views on my dream wedding. I’ve always dreamed of a really small wedding. I have always wanted to cap it at like 12 guests - possibly including the bride and groom. I have always wanted to get married in the US for some weird reason. The more in the middle of nowhere the better. Preferably in someone’s back garden. Or just somewhere near the forest. Come to think of it I would like to just live out the rest of my life in a forest

And look as I said to someone there are so many things I still want from life. But they are so personal I can’t discuss them

But on a simpler level
  • I need to get out of bed and make some food but I am crashed in bed with a hangover. I had like 1-2 glasses of red wine/prosecco/some random sips of other wine. This is more than I have had in years. I have the tolerance of a child. I feel so tired and so depressed (but writing helps omg)
  • I would like to stick to my plan of getting to work early to plan my work every day - I have a new planner and stickers
  • I need to finish sorting my stickers
  • I need to wash my hair (it takes ages to dry)
  • I need to find a way to become rich
  • I need to work on my secret plan to become rich
  • I want to stare moodily at my pictures of glass houses on the wall
  • I have so many other responsible adult things to do ugh
  • I want to keep on dancing but I danced 8 hours this weekend and I am enjoying my break
  • I want to dance more though as I have found a cool new theme to dance with
  • I need to write to my private yoga teacher! Oh yeah
This is where I am at

Hello World

 Hello from Susanna Codes! Hi everyone,  My name is Susanna and I'm a 28-year-old aspiring software engineer from Brighton! As I type this, listening to music from "Le Fabuleux Destin d'Amelie Poulain" (it reminds me of home, in Luxembourg, where I am from - I'm missing home quite a lot lately!) and look forward to some Irish Cream tea in my afternoon break, I am thinking: How lucky I am that my amazing colleague Rosana helped me out with a plan for my software engineer journey (she directed me to the front-end first). How HTML and CSS would not have been my first languages of choice had I not been guided in this direction, as in my head they were seen as 'less-serious' langages. How done I am with what other people think of me and if other people see the 'front-end' as softer then so be it! Everyone has to start somewhere. I am so grateful to be on this journey, with Codecademy's Front-End Engineer Career Path.  Thank you to Async Brighton as ...

“But yesterday, I heard God say, you were born to be the one…”

“But yesterday, I heard God say, you were born to be the one…” Hey there. Still off work. Still tired. Lana del Rey released a new song. Thank God. My soul needed it so much.  I’m thinking a lot about everything. Thinking about where I went wrong. I just want to release. I want to release all the crap that is in my room. I’ve been trying to fully declutter since I was 21. I give away so much. I donate so much. But then I never quite finish. I never get to the click. And then I buy more. I don’t know what technique to use. There are so many techniques. The Marie Kondo method. I like to do kinaesthetic tests too. I like to pretend I’m packing up during the pandemic again and I have to make really quick decisions about what to keep and what to leave behind. That was no fun. But it was efficient. I just can’t release it. There’s so much stuff I can’t let go of. I don’t know how to. I don’t know how to. I suppose that’s a good metaphor for life. We accumulate stuff and we hold on to it....

In the Water, I find Fire

In the Water, I find Fire Who am I without renewable energy? I had to ask myself this question last year when my company laid off half its employees.  I didn’t know who I was anymore. Not without renewable energy. But I did everything I could to stay in it. The time in between jobs allowed me to experiment. Travel around the UK a bit. Reconnect with old hobbies. Rediscover my femininity a bit - be someone who wasn’t always working. But I fought to stay in renewable energy. A part of myself has been telling myself that I am in renewable energy still and that’s great because I am. But I am mostly in water. And that was hard for me to accept that. Because I love renewable energy so so much. And I couldn’t imagine my life without it. But now I can. Not because I don’t love it But because I need to give myself to something more too and that is water Because in the water I find my passion In the water, I find my fire In the water, I find my self again In the water, I find my Self So let’...
