Oooh my very first blog post.Am I a big kid now?

So... this is Blogger huh?
Ok I have spent quite a bit of time on here reading other blogs like Sleep talkin' man and hyperbole and a half (i <3 Allie Brosh!) so I figured the next step is to start my own blog.
I've also noticed that most of my Facebook posts are waaaay to long and frequently go over the word limit which somewhat handicaps my ranting abilities and gave me the motivation to search out other online story telling mediums.
I can't promise I'll post regularly. I can't promise I'll write well. But I can promise it'll (mostly) be worth reading haha. I am paying back all the hours I spent on here wasting valuable study time reading other peoples blogs, now it's time to return the favour.
May my words be your procrastination tools =)
Erm perhaps a wee intro would be good?
Well, I'm 20 living in New Zealand studying towards a Bachelor of Arts degree.Just finished a 6 month job at a radio station which was awesome fun and am currently putting most of my study effort into job and flat hunting.
yeah... I'm sure there's more important stuff to know but you'll pick that up along the way I figure.


OH! explanation of the blog title? Yeah...
I may possibly just slightly be a huge Whovian (for all you non-whovians and ignorant people, that's a Doctor Who fanatic)
The term "the slow path" comes from the episode in which the Doctor meets Madame Du Pompadore aka Rennette Poissant (sp?) by entering her time period through doors in a spaceship 4000 years into Renette's future. She comments that he is able to jump through time never aging and she is stuck on the slow path,waiting.
It seemed fitting, here I am on the slow path traveling in time but in a very linear sense as opposed to whizzing about the "wibbly wobbly ball of timey wimey stuff" in a Police Box that's smaller on the outside.
the 89 just comes from the fact I was born in 89 haha

There were many potential names but I chose this one as it seemed the most.... poetic?maybe? I don't know. Seemed better than something like "IwishIwereatimelord.blogspot.com" haha

I think I'm going to stop it here for today. But know that there is more to come.Much more. Epic stories of my mishap of a family and my nutcases for friends and my confusing love life and all that jazz!
Did I mention I'm also a huge musicals geek?
n_n till next time!
