Late last week a friend mentioned on Twitter that he had a good chance of securing 6 tickets to see the second last Space Shuttle launch in Florida. I was the first to respond, this being a once in a life time event I had wanted to experience since I was 7. And when does this type of opportunity present itself? As the days progressed I was able to ( Read more... )

Navi's in Mexico for her cousins wedding this week so I'm home alone. It's a little strange not having Navi around. Her absence has made me realise how much we hang out and do things together. It used to be very important for me to be independent and to be okay on my own. Although I still am, it's now obvious that I'd much rather be with company, ( Read more... )

Doing better. Much better actually. Plenty to write about but perhaps better to leave it closer to going home ( Read more... )

I was hoping that being back in Ireland would help get me out of this rut I've been in for the past few months. Unfortunately it seems to be having the opposite effect. This is turning into little more then a reminder of how difficult and unpleasant the past 2 years have been (before emigrating). All I would do is get through the day and mark it ( Read more... )

I am nothing more then a shadow of the person I once was.

I have been waiting months to finally say that out loud.
