Haven't been here in ages, but with good reason. So much has been going on since I've been back, and I've been pretty much MIA for everyone, but I've just been trying to settle stuff and get life going! It hasn't been bad though, just really really unsettled. So now, I'm going to try to come back and really update this thing!! I'm starting to regret starting my first post with a picture, because now I feel like to keep the page looking pretty, I have to use a picture for every single post now, which started out fun, because I was going crazy over picnik, and how good it is for people like me with no photoshop skills, and it was a great excuse to have lots of fun with it, but after a while, it is getting to be kind of much, yet I know my weird self won't let me stop doing it for every post, because it has to always look good... I am anal in things that don't even make sense really...
Back to what's been going on, I don't even know where to start. Well, good news is that I've finally found a place to stay. For the past few months, I have been staying with tim and his family, and living out of a suitcase. It's been fun, I love his mom, love his dog, most of the time, love everyone in the house, and have been getting very well fed, but it's getting a little hard after a few months. I can't find a lot of things that I really need, like my charger for my rechargeable batteries, so a lot of stuff is dying and I can't find my charger and I don't really want to buy a new one. What happened is that I was going to stay with tim for a little while, and move out with another good friend once we found a house, she's staying with her boyfriend, who happens to be tim's best friend, it's a bit crazy. But things weren't working out and we still hadn't found a place after a month, and my parents were freaking out on me to find a place soon, so I had to cancel plans with her, and look for a house on my own. I finally found a share place near uni and I'm moving in on thursday, it's really lovely, the landlord seems nice too, so wish me luck! So I'm finally settled on that front. It's not as simple as that really, but the bitching and the ranting has all been done already, probably a bit too much, but everyone needs to have that to move on I suppose.
Things are finally starting to get better! Tim and I haven't fought in two weeks, we have been counting, which is really amazing, because we were going through a really bad period where I was being a bitch, and he was being extremely impatient with me, which totally can't work, because I am such a klutz and an idiot at things that there is just too much to be impatient over, which somehow led to me being a bitch. Throw in lots of backstory and we were fighting pretty much every two days. I've been really keeping up with good friends, which makes me happy, and like I said, I found a place! Phew.
I just got back from Melbourne yesterday, after we spent the weekend going to some Rampfest Australian Open for rollerblading. I really didn't want to go, because Tim told me he wasn't going to compete in it, and I didn't want to spend ten hours watching people rollerblade which often I have to do weekly sometimes anyway, if I happen to be with Tim on a Tuesday night, which is rollerblade with the guys night. It's really nice for the first hour, but then it gets really really boring when the novelty wears off. But finally after much drama with the ticket bookings, we went to Melbourne on Friday. Shopped for a day, mostly for Tim... because he is more of a girl than me, and I'm trying to save money. Watched the competition the next day, I can actually talk rollerblade now, which scares me sometimes, I know all the names of the pro competitors, know the skate companies they are skating for, have my favourites, it's pretty weird, didn't think I'd be in this position couple of years ago... It was totally boring as I predicted, sat there for hours waiting for the pro competition to start, even Tim got heaps bored, but when it did start it was really really good. The US pros were down and I was totally freaking blown away by it. I don't know what they were doing, but they're so good. It's amazing. I'm a convert for a little while. And that was our weekend. It was actually pretty fun when I think about it.
So that's a quick life update, nothing really very interesting actually. I'm like the most boring person right now. I pretty much have to work in two hours at Supre, yup still there, even though I said I was going to look for something else, but I'm starting to really like working there now, cos I have people to talk to, as opposed to the first few months, when I would say one word to anyone not a customer, I was so terrified of all the girls there. I'm a loser I know. haha. Right now, I am eating strawberries and reading Miley Cyrus gossip because I don't like her, and so does Perez Hilton, so essentially I am psuedo bitching with him about her. Or listening to him bitch about her, which weirdly I get a thrill from. But anyway, this is sooo long. On another note, I'm glad all my friends on exchange are having the time of their lives, can't wait to hear about it from them in real life. Have fun girlies!
