Been a while since my last
daylog. I've been busy, a lot has happened, it's pretty much all been
good. In
vast contrast to the
majority of the
human race, my life seems to keep getting better. It's really not very
fair at all.
I wonder, sometimes, what did I do to get such a life? Nothing, really... it wasn't due to any
choices *I've* made, that's for sure. It just seems to be the product of a
disproportionate number of
coincidences where the
consequences lean in my favour. Does that make sense?
So.
Anna and I have been together for a year, as of last week. A year! And our
relationship just keeps getting better, we're closer than ever. We started thinking about where we want to
build our
house the other day, which just seems
unbelievable. If you'd told me a year ago that we'd be looking around for
land to build a house on now, I would've laughed.
Not that we'll get the chance to do such a thing for at least a couple of
years, most likely... we may end up
renting somewhere for a short while, if we can't stand to be living seperately anymore, but don't have enough
money to start building yet... but I agree with Anna when she says renting seems like you're just needlessly
paying off somebody *else's*
house.
Xmas and
New Years were both great, Anna stayed over
Xmas Eve, and then came with us to my
grandparents place on
Boxing Day, so she's nearly met my whole
family now. Her mum is bugging her to organise something with my family, so she can meet them, but
Anna is trying to put it off as long as possible. I don't think it would go *too* badly, but we'd have to make sure my
parents remembered to keep quiet about a few things, like the fact that Anna does *not* sleep on the
couch when she comes over, hehehe...
I'll be going back to
uni again at the end of
February, for my
final year, and moving onto
part-time work. My
salary will be going
up though, so my
pay won't be too much less, which is a good thing. I'll still have to cut back on the amount I spend on
lunch and stuff though, I think, but that shouldn't be a problem with me not being in
South Yarra so much.
Two of our
friends got together at the end of the year, which was a great surprise; it sort of catalysed at Anna's
21st, and went from there. It's sort of funny how everybody that gets together in our
group does it around the
New Year, and so far it's been a year apart each time. So now we are just wondering who it'll be next year...
Anyway,
ramble ramble ramble, nobody will read this all the way through, but I felt the need to write something about what's been going on. I don't keep a
web journal anymore, and I think it's getting to me, heh. So this'll do for now.
