i know ive ended up neglecting this thing....
in truth ive just been too busy.... and i haven't known what to say.
so today is the goodbye/goodriddance party...
the culmination of my life in sheffield. I have met some great people, had some great friends, made some worse enemies, and generally had quite a mixed bag. on saturday i leave it all behind for a new thing.
im equally terrified and more excited than anyone would believe. i still haven't actually allowed it all to sink in - the last three and a half months have been absolutely crazy. i feel bad for neglecting keeping in touch some i hold more dear than they actually realise, and there are others i have met fairly late in my time here i would have liked the chance to have gotten to know... but i guess those things are all part of life....
at present im exhausted. mentally physically and emotionally... but i can't stop until saturday night (realistically monday though) when then stuff is all in the flat, and i can sit down with a glass of water and just allow myself a pause.....
today i finished sorting out bills things... only things to set up for south shields now... and im off out in half an hour, will be back tomorrow afternoon, i have approximately 8 hours tomorrow, and as long as it takes when i get back to sheffield on friday (goin to pick up keys) night to get everything finished. im short of boxes and feel like for every one little section i have finished, another three pop up and shout 'remember me!?' hoping however that that is enough time for everything... i guess if the worst comes to the worst then i can hand those unlucky people who volunteered to help me on friday night a black sack each and just throw things in them... more incentive to unpack i guess.
but im going to try and put that out of my mind for the next 24 hours or so.
festivities kick off in around an hour at the cavendish, with late lunch, and a chilled start.... moving on to the common room for pool, then the benjamin huntsman at 5pm to meet up with work people and others for tea, moving down to the nelson for 7.30pm (probably earlier... ) where will be till closing.... will be good to be able to see people one last time, and hopefully the length of the thing means ill get chance to talk to you all! im staying at my good friend jessica-ladys house overnight and enjoying a quiet morning before rounding things off by being taken to lunch by sean....
so thats the plan.... and i look forwards to seeing those of you who are around...
hopefully ill get to post before i go offline for the move... actually no, not hopefully, i *will*
