Various thoughts on my life
Maybe I should start journaling again on occasion even if no one reads it. It feels like that kind of time in my life. Facebook isn't enough and it feels like my updates get lost in oblivion. It feels strange to write long updates because facebook has turned into this place with lots of photos or snippets of people's lives. It's like the tv news ( Read more... ) -
Quitting
Nobody tells you how amazing it can feel to quit. I quit driving lessons for 7 days. Until my next lesson. Feels great. Driving is a horrible thing to learn. Especially when you've already passed a test in another country.
I'd also like to quit teaching. Not actually but it feels good to pretend for now. -
Being poor
Being poor is just not fun. Sometimes it seems like everything costs money: passport renewal, courses to be more qualified, the test to see if I qualify for the French course, textbooks...well, there will be more. Thank goodness some things are free or at least unlimited (internet). Apparently I can get a free dental screening from students if I do ( Read more... ) -

I went on a one-month hitchhiking out east trip with Ian and wow, by the end of the trip I was imagining marrying him and having children. More realistically, I was thinking about living with him. I can't even describe the love I was feeling.
Today my half-brother and family come to visit for a night. Should be fun. -
Love thoughts
I've realized I feel pretty unemotional compared to other people. Not always true, especially since I realize how I am and can focus on letting myself feel emotions. And certainly there are times when I get really emotional. I think the being less emotional is related to the fact that when I do different emotions, I feel overwhelmed and out of ( Read more... ) -
Life
I am at home, living with my parents until I find a job. The weather is beautiful and the lake is warm! I`m still in love, which is great. Even if we don`t see each other in person at the moment, I have someone I know I can talk to who will understand me. My parents are pretty great for that too. -

More new things!
To add to the list of new things I've done:
- Freecamped.
-->We camped on a small island in a stream. The stream had falls in places and a trail along the stream and you're supposed to pay to get in but we found a way in without paying in the middle of the path. We had a lovely fire. There was easy-to-burn dead wood nearby.

I just did a half hour "run" and I feel so good! It was ten minutes of actual running--2 min of running, then 3 min of walking. That was doable! I've always pushed myself too hard and then given up. So...I'm going to take a chance and actually write down that I want to continue to do this. I have the time. It's just a matter of remembering 3-4 ( Read more... ) -
Tuesday, Wednesday.
Yesterday was such a lazy day! My new place has Gilmore Girls. So I watched that. I spent way too long talking to Ian online. And I finally unpacked and my room is now beautiful and clean. I will take a picture soon. I played pool with someone last night who I had met once before. That was enjoyable. I came home and Alban was over. We drank wine ( Read more... )
