Seasons Greetings!
9 years ago
Well, we are coming up to the end of the year, and boy, what a year it has been!!!
This year I have seen a lot of ups and downs, but thankfully the ups far outweigh the downs and I had some wonderful people around me to help me. Even if you don't know it, simply having you there helps me to pull through!
I'm still working in a busy kitchen as an assistant/porter (something I swore I would never do again), and though the work is fast paced and stressful at times, I have to admit, I enjoy it! so much so, that I am contemplating requesting proper training to become a chef after the busy Christmas season.
I lost some old friends, not due to any ones fault, but several months ago I came to the realization that we had all changed, drifted apart and become different people with different lives, goals and paths. It was a difficult moment for me, as I had lived with a lot of these people and considered them at one point to be my family, but to meet them again after a few years and feel like a total stranger knocked me way more than it should. At the time I was devastated, but time heals wounds and now I am just glad for the moments we had together. We need to remember that we all change, everyone of us, and we will all lose people who were once close, but the future holds so much more to look forward to!
Today marks the 4 month anniversary between
zargul and myself, and it's only a week until I fly out to see him for Christmas, new year (Silvester :P) and my birthday. To say I'm nervous is a bit of an understatement, but I'm equally excited too!! This is an adventure, my first time traveling without family and something I never imagined doing this year! I also never thought I would be trying to learn a new language! I'm still terrible at speaking German and can barely understand anything, but I am learning and will continue to improve!
For the first time in a long while, I have an idea of what I want to do... and for the first time in my life, I feel I am gaining the confidence to achieve those things, but we will see how everything goes.
I wish everyone here has a wonderful holiday and an amazing new year!
