Well hello there
Has been a while since I have been on here. My computer is being evil and doesn't let me view my friends page without a fight and that has been offputting. To say whats going on with me I think I will just twittle on for a lil bit and talk about my thoughts for this year and my thoughts of last year
Last year.
I finished my degree at Aber, came out of it with a 2.1 for my dissertation and a 2.2 overall. Not too bad I could of done better but until i kick this depression that will always be my excuse. Maybe one day when I have "gotten better" i will be happy with things.
From Aber I moved to manc, first sharing with sam becka marcus kath and dan, and that was not fun I can tell you, and then moving to my current location with just sam. Its a nice 3 bed victorian terrace house, all good sized rooms except for the kitchen, that is teeny. But its cosey here, a nice open fire and a fairly good location.
I got a job in a woolies (where else would i work) in swinton, which is far too far to travel each day and pays shite wages but i like it there. I am looking for a new job though, one that doesnt involve weekends, long long commutes or slave trade wages. I'd stay with woolies if they could pay me more but I just dont think they can, the company is in such bad shape.
i went to finland and loved it there, absolutly rocking country, lots of good stuff fpr the environment. so very pretty, lots of culture and saunas and o my word pear cider and other flavour cider and karelian pies and sausages and oh just oh
i had a brillent time in ripon, i grew as a person i think. i'm more accepting and open with my body. Something changed at least.
i made a new appointment with a psychiatrist, at the priory, he is treating me or trying to treat me. Raised my seroxat which was bad then put me on lithium which was horrific. now back to seroxat and i see him again tomorrow. He reffered me to a psycotherapist and that seems to be going well, already i am thinking things better, understanding some of the things i was taught wrong and trying to correct them. my next appointment witrh her is friday i think.
and for things that were fun, interesting and helped me grow:
starfury convention; not doing one of thoses again
hosted matts bday: first time i played hostess in my own place and we went quazar which was frelling brill if you ignore the kids
had my first christmas in my own place, tree and everything which was fun, as was new year and hosting yule here. felt nice to have people in this house other than just us.
i got a new nephew, by nat which is great, and he is just the cutest lil thing.
one of my major achievments is my money managing, its not brillent, but its better, a lot better. i am less quick to part with my money and overall i'm being more sensible, sam thinks i should still improve more but i;m glad with how far ive come
well sam is asleep and i really should shut up with typing plus if youve read this far congrats. i will post again in the next couple days with my news, hopes and aims for 2007
take care of yourselves
