Hey guys!
So... I don't know if I have been missed but I haven't logged onto here for probably about four months... I know it was when I was still in England. I thought you may all like an update from me
I have been living abroad (Canada) for the last few months and loving it. I haven't felt this happy and awesome in like, for ever?! Before I came I was worried that I may end up in dark places with less support options (not that I have ever taken any in the UK, but just the knowledge they are there is good) so things may go badly. Thankfully it is the complete opposite. I have only missed home twice, and both times a good cry and a good nights sleep rectified the situation!
Have got myself a job, it's early days but so far I am loving it. I get paid less, but they are strict about me only doing the hours I am contracted to do. That is a massive bonus to my last workplace, where we were treated like crap. I have myself a friend with benefits... so all is good on that front. I have smoked more weed than I thought possible (it's seriously everywhere here and people seem to turn a blind eye to it mostly...). I have settled down temporarily but know I can easily up sticks and do more travelling around Canada. I travelled a bit before I settled down in my current town/city. I love the thought that I have freedom, and my plan is tht there is no plan!
We had our first snowfall today, though not very much snow actually fell too.
I may return to lurking here, though the time difference makes things a bit delayed (apart from for you night owls out there!) as I am seven hours behind you guys.
That was a quick update! You aren't forgotten TheSite and amazing people!
