This is my sister Tarnya at her 30th!!!  

a view from up the river down towards the university that I go to on the far right- but you cannot see the uni and the main city to the left.  

here is a black and white of Brisbane...Just a bit of the city....but it is pretty nice  

here is a photo of Alex and myself at my sisters 30th!! As you can tell my hair is getting fairly long and yes...this is the first pic of myself that I have placed on this blog!! Thanks to Alex!! 

Reality has hit!!

Now that I only have one more week left, three days after today to be honest, the reality of what I am about to put myself through has hit me big time!!
I have received my pay for the last two weeks worth of work and there is less of it than I thought I should receive, and i am not sure if this pay includes all the pay out amounts that should be included.
It leaves me dramatically short and I don't know what to do. I have no job organised as yet but there is one hopefully in the pipe line, I do not have my Austudy organised as yet but will be going today to get that done, not to mention the fact that it may take a while for them to process it all and I may have to starve for a while. I don't think that I will be able to buy the books that I need for uni but will spend endless hours at the library or one of them to use the book all the time, and the list seems to go on and on.
I don't have enough money for my sisters 30th birthday present either and don't know what the hell to do.
Food - well what the hell was that!! It will not exist for me for a while and that is a daunting fact for someone who likes their food too much for their own good.
I was thinking to myself that i have done something stupid by getting into uni. I will not have money, will not have food and will be studying my arse off which will inturn mean that i will not have a life either.
This is not the way that it is suppose to be. I am suppose to have the money to survive for the first month at leaset and not struggle before I even start!!
This is crazy!!!
I just have to get everything organised with HECS and Austudy, then find a job.
I am trying to get a job with Woolworth's. If I can do that then I will be okay.
I don't care what I do as long as there is money involved!!
I will have to work harder than I ever have to survive but I know that i can do it and I will be strong enough to make it work. Hey, I have been through tougher shit than this before!!
I can do it!! There will just be a slight period of adjustment and I have to learn to say no a lot more...and miss out on a lot, but I will be okay!!!
: )

The blonde lady is Tracey and the brunette is Jillian, Alex's mum!!!

This is ALex...I knwo that he will not like this photo and you can't see his eyes but you get the picture....hahahaha!!! get it...get the .....ahh.forget it!!! 

Time Flies When you are Having a blast!!!!

Well hello.

Can you believe that the last update was on the 22nd. That is bad, bad, bad!!!

I have been so busy lately I bearly have time to sit and think.

As I am starting University on the 21st, I have been training people to get them up to speed for taking over the job that I do. That then means that i have to stay back at work and also do the work that has not been done to date and get everything up to date.

So apologies for not updating this soon enough or as regular as some people may have liked but I am getting there!!!

As I may have suggested previously, I have met someone and his name is Alex.
He is wonderful and I am very happy with the way that things are going.
Life in 2005 seems to be just right so far and I am looking forward to whatever it brings my way.

Alex is actually amazing and I can say that as I have been through some stuff. He is kind and considerate and honest which is a rare find. I don't feel that i am being fed bullshit and he is being genuine.

We have spent a lot of time together of late. More so on the weekend than on any other time to date. We spent Friday, Saturday, and Sunday together and did not get sick of each other!!
Yay!! Then he came and spent Monday night with me on the couch!!

He bought a new mini convertable on Friday so we have been taking that for a spin around the block a few times and that has been really nice.

It is good to be in something positive after this long alone....I know it is not that long but I am glad that I have waited to see what happens and it is all very good!!!
I have some photos which I will download so you can see what has been happening.
I met his parents and his father really liked me and his mum, that much so that they invited me to go on the boat with them all on the weekend and go for a swim.

Lovely!!!
So the photos will be of all of that and I will update as time goies on with uni and life and all that jazz!!!

Hope you are all well and email me!!!
