Thirteen Firsts

by

Since flying to Australia and moving in with my (now) husband, I have experienced a lot of firsts. I used to make a big deal about firsts because new experiences are so special to me. They still are special to me; I just don’t make as big of a deal about them.

Today I decided to share some of my firsts with you. Feel free to add some of your firsts in the comments section.

(Be warned - a lot of my firsts have to do with food.)

Thirteen Firsts

1. My first kiss. On the day I arrived in Australia.
2. Seeing “Ass” used as a menu item name.
3. Visiting a sex shop for the first time.
4. Trying (and absolutely loving) sushi.
5. My first legal alcoholic drink. (And getting drunk for the first time.)
6. Go to New Years Eve fireworks.
7. My first freelance writing job.
8. First time swimming in the ocean.
9. Trying a cookie with jam for the first time. (Actually not too bad.)
10. Going to my first writer’s conference.
11. Trying Japanese for the first time and loving it.
12. Trying Mongolian for the first time and loving it.
13. Having a book send to me to review for the first time.
