I am so excited!

The AN-forums are like my online family, so I wanted to share something cool that happened over the weekend.

I've been with my partner Steph for a long, long time (yep, both AN lecturers, match made in accessible educational heaven ;)). As you might know if you've been reading my placement journal, I've also been in Newcastle for work for the last 6 months, which has meant seeing a whole lot less of her. I got back for good on Friday night super keen to do something I've been wanting to do for... Well, probably years, to be honest.

On Saturday night, I asked the love of my life to marry me - And she said yes! We had an amazing view of the Harbour Bridge/Opera House, I made her a cute video, we both cried - It was sappy and romantic and everything I imagined it would be like, plus more.

No real reason for posting this other than the fact that I'm super excited and wanted to share this with my AN fam - And I guess just to say that if anyone is thinking of proposing to their partner, I very much recommend it. Highly enjoyable ;)


PS - I'm bummed she isn't lecturing in this upcoming series, because come on, how cute would that have been!

Throwback to that 2U lecture where we suggested you would propose to Steph at a math lecture- you know, for publicity ;)

But seriously, you guys are couple goals! Congratulations to both of you :D

Sounds like a plan!! Why pay hundreds for a gift to attend a wedding offered by other companies, when you can get a better wedding for free, thanks to ATAR Notes! ;)

Thank you so much, everyone! :)
