Oh look, Im back again...
8 months on and so much has changed.
Living at my old place in Orange became quite unbearable, things with one of the neighbors was starting to get quite ugly. So when the safety of my dogs, and my own, was too much at risk I decided enough was enough, contacted my father, and two days later I was gone.
From renting a 3 bedroom house to living in half of my father's garage is quite a difference. But I'm in stable, if very small, accommodation where I dont have to worry about a break in/ or some sort of attack from the neighbors. I dont have to pay rent, just chip in for bills, so hopefully a few more months and I'll actually be financially stable.
On top of that Im back in Uni. At the encouragement of my friend I decided im going to try and shoot for my dream career, so Im first year at Uni again, though this time I enrolled at my local uni instead of having to do a 6 hour commute each day. I'm majoring in photography, but I have a lot of leeway with electives so Im probably going to minor in either Japanese or Creative writing (Or both).
Its only second week from tomorrow but I've been enjoying it. Im really nervous about tomorrow though, in my creative writing class I have to read out some work that I've written to the whole class and then they will critique it. Its a compulsory part of the class so I couldnt escape it, I also have to lead the discussion on this weeks readings. The thought of doing either is stressing me out a lot- I actually volunteered to go first though, because I wont have to live up to any prior work/performance and hopefully people will be too uncomfortable and unsure about critiquing another's work and so they will be more restrained then they will be in later weeks once they have gotten into the swing of things....
I got a fidget cube off ebay so hopefully that'll help me not shake/run out of the class...
Wish me luck
