Now what?

2013 hasn't been a kind year so far, the death of my grandfather was sudden but not unexpected, my grandmother who usually doesn't share much emotions has cried, felt depressed and is mourning over the loss of her husband of 60+years, hearing her cry the way she did at the funeral literally crushed my heart...and to top it off, Saturday 8th June, morning at about 4:07am, my aunt who is 53/54 years old has died. She had cancer which spread to the brain, a stroke that paralysed her left side and she only retired a year ago...She has worked all her life and didn't even finish primary school...

These deaths that has occurred so suddenly has...some what punched some fear into me...should I work so much? Is there any jobs or careers that will allow me to enjoy life as a source of income? Should I bother with a job? How much time do I have left? What the Fuck am I even doing? Is this some form of "early-mid-life crisis?"...Bloody Hell, thinking about this jazz makes me wonder if I am losing it...

...OK..break......

...Gran is coming to the UK to stay with my family, FACT.
I will need a new job by August, FACT and ESSENTIAL.
I still have a dream where I won't need to depend on a job for my income, FACT, ESSENTIAL AND NECESSARY!

..That doesn't sound too bad! OK, job hunting here I come!

If anyone out there has any suggestions...please pass them over!

Last night I have done what is the 2nd most craziest thing in my life...I have cut contact with the Karly for my sanity... It began at about 4pm during the day, Karly text me saying she's going to return some of my things...books and hoody etc...(at this moment in time, I had flash backs of the times we flirted, went out for walks and talks at her place...all the good stuff). I asked her what spurred this on so she replied she was "cleaning out her room and there's no point to clutching on to things." (my thought was - does this mean she thought of me as someone at some point? Or were you being nice by keeping them?) "Then why did you hold on to those things till now?" I replied. "What difference does it make whether I give them back now or two weeks later?" She replied.. I took it badly, if Karly knew this long ago then why did you drag this out till now? An argument through text happened. Couple of hours later we text each other again...

Its all coming back! :D

Oh Hell yeah!!!!!!!! Remember a month ago I screwed things over a bit with Michelle? After many messages and persuasion, I managed to be "dating her"...I'm not entirely sure what  actually happened... Last Wednesday we had a lunch date...then I asked if she wanted to come with me to look for a new car...I choose to go back to my old place of work (Citroen and Seat dealers), saw a good number of old colleagues and my old manager! We greeted and had a catch up...then they offered me AN ASS KICKING EPIC DEAL... So i bought a car...Seat Ibiza, 1.4litre engine...140 break horse power with a decent 60mpg......in black... Life is pretty sweet just now, (almost) girlfriend and new car...needing a flat to call home :)

Upon pondering

Am I happy with what I have? That depends on how you view the situation. I have a flat, I have a car that is paid off, I have a job that pays fairly, I quite enjoy my job except for the hours, I have an awesome girlfriend, I have a few flatmates and I live in the city! The flat is a humble 3 bedroom flat located in the suburbs of Edinburgh. It isn't the most flashiest of homes, I've been getting tradesmen to do work on it for me...windows...new storage space...gas cooker...door adjustments...painting of new door frame...new front door...a drive way and generally tidying up after myself. Being in the flat for 2 months with most of the necessary work almost complete...I can say it is becoming a place I enjoy coming back to after a day at work or somewhere to zone out and chill! Car...I love my SEAT Ibiza FR Black Edition. Sadly I am having trouble with everyone else, I live on a street where parking can be an issue and cars passing by can be very close...back in September some...
