^That's the spirit. I'm sure you can do it twiggle, you have a very positive attitude.Sad. My sister and nephews left today and now its back to feeling lonely and looking for jobs. I hate feeling like an unemployed, oafish lump that just sits around and has no friends. Each day I'm more and more tempted to move back to the capital where I know I could be with my friends and have a thriving social life, or even go travelling again and teach English abroad or something.
But I'm so determined to make it work here first because if I can then this place would be perfect.
But how long do I give it?
Every day that passes just makes me think about how behind I feel compared to everybody else my own age. They're all getting engaged or getting their own place, at the least they have well-defined careers. I know I'm not alone but I also know that the only person who can change all this is me.
I NEED to get my act together.
I'm extremely drained from the week, but somewhat relaxed now. Had 3 engineering exams, had a mental breakdown yesterday because I couldn't start homework until 8 last night. I hate people seeing me cry, when they asked what was wrong I cried even harder. I just wanted everyone to get out of my face, which is unavoidable in my situation (living in a dorm).
You're not behind other people your age, believe me. You've found what you want to do in your life, and you're actually doing it! Of course you need another job to bring you money, but can be happy with what you already have. A paid job will come as you're working so hard to find one, you'll find new friends in your new area because you're really friendly and kind, and all the rest will come with time.Sad.

I just feel so...blah. I'm not happy, and I'm not sad, I just feel really blank/numb at the moment.
Just hit an all new level of depression. Gonna go drown myself in 12 hours of non stop gaming...
What do you mean?
