Oh right, a life post.
I wrote this up on the way to work the other day but left it on a USB in the work computer, LAWWWWL.
Haven't really had much of a life since coming back from Seoul ^^; I came home Tuesday, found that I had to sort a whole bunch of crap out with the real estate agent because he guy who'd told me he'd take care of everything while Anis was in hospital and I was away... didn't do as he said he would. I should have followed it up myself, made sure it was all paid myself but I didn't and that's my own fault. So after sorting out the mess that is my living situation, I tried to relax.
And couldn't, really. Because the housemate is still in hospital and everything is still messed up. His mother is currently staying with me, she arrived Sunday morning and I've been feeling horribly awkward about it; I don't know how to behave around her/what to do/what to offer. Augh. We went down to Werribee Mercy hospital to visit Anis and it was just... it was good to see him, but he was heavily medicated and some of the things he was saying still didn't make sense. He wants to come home so badly, but the doctors are a bit reluctant to let that happen and I can see why, although on the other hand I think him being home with his mother would be much better for him than the horribly blank ward he's staying in right now. To cut a long story short though-he's doing a lot better than he was. He isn't cured, but he's getting there... very slowly.
I went back to work on Thursday and Friday; it's disorienting going to work halfway through the week but one of the girls was away so I'm glad I did, although I was still shaken about having to sort out a lot of stressful issues the moment I got home. The last time I went to Korea, coming home left me in a slump and work depressed me, but this time I honestly slid back into it a lot easier-I'd been lucky, I'd had a couple of very special weeks jam-packed with a ton of stuff-I felt I'd had enough. I was content for the time being, I had enough stories to tell. I'm far from being sick of the whole experience though, and if all goes well I'll be back same time next year to see Park Euntae in Elisabeth. Oh and... whatever else is on at that time. Big Show again? Who knows.
Part of this post was supposed to be a 'this is where I'm going to go from here' thing. I didn't really plan this post and am kind of churning it out as I go, and now I'm sitting here thinking about this particular section and coming up with a blank. Like… I’m back from holiday-now what? I still have this thing lurking in the back of my mind about changing jobs, maybe doing a part-time study course... but visiting Korea has become so important to me, the idea of locking myself into something new here in Australia gives me shudders. I need to look properly into the overseas options, maybe do an international study thing like Leena, the lovely Finnish girl we met in Seoul is doing. There's so many options *-*
As for work itself, it's fine but everyone seems seriously high-strung. After coming back from my holiday I've been pretty chill despite the issues I'm having in my personal life. Everyone at work seems to be at breaking point though, which makes everything a little tense and uncomfortable. Sometimes I'm honestly sitting there going o____o; because things are blowing up around me. But I understand where most of them are coming from and honestly can't judge.
I'm starting a new gift project to keep my mind off the bad stuff, it's just too much fun to make things, especially when you know they get to their intended recipients. I have a few plans in the works, and when the Dr. Dre Beats headphones I bought arrive in the mail I also have a customisation project I've set my mind to. If I'm going to spend that much money on headphones I want them to be one-of-a-kind, damn it.
Not many of my friends update their LJs anymore... it actually makes me really sad :c I always found it crazily fascinating to read other people's posts; even those who are close to me so I'm already familiar with the posts' contents-I just love to hear things from other people's perspectives-especially if I was there with them! Those posts are more fun than the disconnected ones from halfway around the world ALTHOUGH I still love reading every post on my flist. I'm also gonna try and comment more cuz I've been really bad with that.
Tumblr's the cool thing now, isn't it? I tried and enjoyed Tumblr for a while but I got bored of it really quickly and the Tumblr dashboards get cluttered so quickly because people spam so much random crap. Boo. Oh well even if LJ isn't cool anymore I'm still gonna keep updating it <3
To end on an amusing note, here is a gif of myself from Japanese TV.
It's from this video about 30secs in and the fanart is also mine. What is my life.
