Well, what can I say here? My name is Helen and I'm mostly a bit of a twat.
I have fit a lot into my short life and have a list of many more things to do including:
(anything in blue is an update otherwise it's just a wishlist - I plan on doing it all!)

- Cage diving with Great White Sharks in South Africa
- Travel to the parts of the world I missed out on when I worked on cruise ships
- Safari in Kenya - did one in September 2011 - was BRILLIANT!
- Help build a school in Nairobi and visit the wee man I sponsor there - I visited an orphanage and school when I was there in 2011 and plan to go back and volunteer.
- Complete my Forensics Certificate - PASSED - and graduated on 7th Sept 2011 :-)
- Complete a 4 year BSc Hons Degree in Forensic Psychobiology - Graduated in July 2016 :-)
- Change the entertainment industry for the better - I run the British Actors Network which is giving this a bloody good go!
- Live on a barge - have done a weekend stay on a barge and now know that living on one is not for me!
- Live in a converted lunatic asylum in the grounds of a cemetery or at least overlooking one
- Spend a night in an actual haunted house - did the overnight Vaults in Edinburgh (close enough)
- Solve a murder - worked on a live murder inquiry during 4th year at Uni.
- Make enough money to pay my mum back everything I owe her.
- Pay for my sister to go work with the Orangutangs in Borneo.
- Have enough money to live in a wee house by the sea with loads of space to rescue cats and dogs and maybe the odd alpaca.
Do I care if anyone reads it? Nah, not really! But, if you do read it, I hope it will spur you on and remind you that when you are at your lowest, the only way to look is up.
