It's OKay to be a "Gapper"


This is my first ever post – I’m entirely new to this blogging thing. So this is my intro: I have just finished matric and decided to take a gap year. Yeah, yeah, I know what you all are thinking – ” Are you sure you want to do that?” Well I wanted to take a year to “find myself” ..if you will. So that will include working to save money for my UK trip which I’ve always dreamed about, to blog and use twitter to meet new people in the fashion industry and to simply have a ball before I study next year. I want to do everything I want to while I’m still young and before I have to hit the books, get a job (start a business :D ) and so on. Most of my buds have eeny-meeny-miny-mo-ed a course at Stellenbocsh and UCT. Sorry for you.. but I wont do that.

I have written this post and have only ever read 2 blogs in my life. I have no idea what it’s like so here goes!

I will be posting about my gap year to keep everybody updated on what I’ll be doing. Wish me luck!!!

    Great post! And it is definitely OK to be a “Gapper” What you experience this year will put things in perspective for you. Most importantly – HAVE A BALL and good luck. Look forward to reading more of your blogs :-)
