I fell off LJ and the taxi back was late...
Good grief, it's been far too long since I was on here... I'm sorry, everyone - with my sister going to uni, the new course, and my idiotic relapse I've simply been useless. Either I haven't had the time to post or I've been on a downer and didn't want to be all depressing. Especially since good things have been happening. But I've really missed you all, ever so much. I've already started my catch-up, and I'm so glad you all (so far, at least) seem healthy and happy, and I'll finish it tomorrow.
The course is fabulous. I love it. Adore it. I'm finally doing something I really love and can spend the rest of my life on with no qualms whatsoever. My photography is already improving a little, and I've rather shocked myself with how skilled I really am at drawing and painting. The lecturers are just lovely, especially Graeme, Andy and Liza. Convenient, considering Graeme is my Friday tutor, and Liza is Tuesdays'. I'm proud to say that I've made some friends, and I've managed to not put up a front with them so far, so they actually like me for ME. Yeah, I'm still finding it slightly odd that people other than you guys could put up with me, but it makes me very happy.
So, overall, I think I've made the right decision.
I've got very into Doctor Who. It's all tierfal's fault... And I absolutely adore you for it, my dear, even if it does mean I have even less money than usual. XD
Victoria (my little sister) has started at Edinburgh and seems ever so happy there. I'm really glad for her, and her housemates seem lovely too. I miss her a fair bit, but she's coming home for her birthday this weekend, and she's set up Skype so I can chat to her on that. I might try to go and visit her some time in November, too - I really like Edinburgh. Very awesome shops and sights - and a completely amazing bar that I fell hopelessly in love with - and yes, jenwryn, it serves tea! Better yet, the herbal and iced varieties too, if you ask!
I'm watching Persepholis. It makes me cry.
Being back home with my parents has been a bit difficult - we don't always quite see eye to eye - but we're all trying and we're doing better than I thought we might. They seem upset about my relapse so I'm trying as hard as I can to not let on when I'm having a bad day. I'm not daoing too badly - they seem happier than a week ago, at least. I still don't like taking the extra pills, but I can see that it's necessary. My councilling hasn't started yet, but I've been told I'm welcome at the drop-in sessions any time I want to go in and talk. I've not had chance yet. But I think I might go on Wednesday (well, technically tomorrow, now). I think.
I really am doing better than I was though. There was a bit of a low point a couple of weeks ago, and I'm much better than that now. Now I just need to get over a little insomnia I've had recently, but that'll be fine. I'm thinking warm milk and one little posh chocolate will help a lot.
I've discovered FarmVille on Facebook. I hate it, but I love it and I can't stop. Very bad.
Anyway, I really need to try and sleep sometime soon. I love you all, darlings, and I really have missed you ever so much. ♥
