Wow I'm doing quite well with my list of things to do. I've watched a fair few movies, read two non veterinary books and I'm on my way through my third. I gave blood, made some headway on clothes buying- got jeans and a nice top... and I had a massage! My room is also cleanish. And I have done lots of lovely running.
And I'm happy! I'm relieved because I was starting to worry that I was sort of clinically depressed or something but the last few days have seen a happy-warm-and-fuzzy-feeling-inside Ali who is cheerful and sunny. So I put all feelings of psycho sadness down to perfectly normal understandable stress. Which is good in a way, but I also live with the knowledge that in another fww months there will be another set of exams, and another load of pressure... but hopefully they'll be a bit easier this time around... lets not dwell on it.
My new year was grand. The last few days of December were spent in Sligo with family- beautiful place! And then I spent New Year in Michaels in the company of many jolly (and not so jolly) drunks. We rang in the new year singing Bohemian Rhapsody and watching fireworks explode over Greystones, and I spilled whiskey in my hair when we danced around. Then I came home and snuggled up in bed with Niall (don't you love it when family fecks off). It was a nice way to start the year anyway.
And tyhe next day there was lazing around, then in to work. then some more lazing, today I read some physioology book, ran, went to town, gave bloody, bought the aforementioned pretty top, and saw I Am Legend with Jen, Dave Boylan, Eoin, and Steph. Such a great few days to begin the new year. I'm just doing a bit of reading, not killing myself studying or anything. Just trying to relax, Seriously though,t hwen you work so hard usually, you appreciate those extra few minutes in bed, those hours spent just reading a book listening to your mp3 player (I got that working too- another promise to myself fulfilled). Life just means so much more, which I appreciate, though I'm still not sure altogether how things will go in the long run!
Holidays are being planned too- Off to Greece I'm thinking. Island happing! And news news news: got the black belt!!!! Hurray!! I'm completely ecstatic,. only found out on New Year's Eve which was a seriously fantastic mprale booster.
Another new years resolution, of my many: post to this more, I'm bad at keeping regular siaries so I suppose writing here is easier, only a few minutes when I'm online and I'm done. Lets make 2008 a fuckload better than 2007.
