Lydia: Finding Purpose

In highschool, Lydia had a circle full of many friends. As time went by and they all grew older, Lydia's friends all slowly figured out what it was they wanted to do with life after education. Dylan was going to go on radio, Sarah was going to be a model, Jada was going to go live in the US and try and make big bucks. But as her friends around her all figured out their next moves, Lydia still had no idea what she wanted to do.

The idea came to her in year 11 when she fell in love with weddings after being a bridesmaid at her aunts wedding and then again at her sister's later on that year. It was then that she decided that she wanted to be a wedding planner.

She told Jada at lunch. "Jada!" She beamed as she walked toward her. "I've finally decided what I want to do after school!" "Lydia!" Jada smiled. "That's great! What is it you want to do exactly?" Jada asked. "I've decided to be a wedding planner."

After Lydia and Jada finished their HSC's the following years, they made plans to find a cheap apartment over in Beverly Hills and agreed to rent an apartment together, acquiring another roomate when they were settled over there.

Two years on and Lydia is a sucessful wedding planner living with Jada and their new found American roomate, Bree a stylist in a small apartment in Beverly Hills. Jada was starting to make good money as an agent and Bree made a load whenever she got a new job modelling for a magazine or book cover or calender or whatever the shoot was for. Lydia realised she was the happiest she'd ever been, living her dreams in Beverly Hills.
