so how's the year been for you? what have been the standout high points and low points? has it been an overall good year or your anus horriblus? did you manage to achieve what you set out to achieve? and finally, so where to for 2003?
to start us off, major highlights for me this year include:
- started dating my wonderful boyfriend in late january, we are still together and things are great
- my month long trip to thailand, september/october, was one of the most amazing experiences of my life so far
- 2 trips to melbourne, one at the start of the year which included kittycore, and one for my 22nd birthday in may, when i was lucky enough to be able to attend bill's memorial party
- FINALLY getting my driver's license!
- starting regular qi gong (kinda like tai chi) classes -> they are amazing and have really helped me learn how to clear my head and just "be"
- MUCH less chems in my diet
low points:
- getting my wisdom teeth out
- a month long stretch at work where i was working 3 jobs and totally stressed out i developed sleeping problems
- a horrible weekend when i found out about bill's death, a friend of the family was killed by a car the same friday and my grandmother died on the saturday
- when i thought my parents were going to get a divorce around june -> they aren't now, which is a high i guess, and at least things got out into the open and are steadily improving
overall the year hasn't been too bad for me - i meant to go overseas much earlier in the year but due to maxi's prior commitments the travel got postponed about 6 mths. i have found a little more direction in life - i have applied to go back to uni to study law next year (hopefully do the 3 year accelerated course) and i hope this will allow me to research into minority groups' experiences with and within the criminal justice system and maybe eventually work for legal aid. my plans for next year include buying a car, moving out of home with maxi (we have just completed 3 weeks of house-minding together and LOVED it!), getting my ass down to melbourne more and obviously uni. in fact, i can't wait - roll on 2003 i say.....
much love to everyone who has been a part of making my year so great,
