The day's been so gloomy, there hasn't been much sunshine and unfortunately it's starting to affect my mood a little.Had a haircut today which was long overdue and it was just a trim so nothing drastic, but it does feel alot lighter. Yay !
Yesterday i went into willeton senior high school to help with the tuesdays lunch time prayer meeting and it was just so refreshing. there wasn't a huge group or anything but maybe it's the whole stepping out of my comfort zone and still feeling safe.
Its just under a week till i move to Como to stay on my own with Divs for 10 weeks while Rajni's in Port Hedland. I really, really should have started packing something but i haven't (and i reaallyy hope she doesn't see this or else i'm in big trouble) I'm excited about living with her for the next 2 months and a half but i am nervous about being homesick. I'm very attatched to my family : having a brother to tease and be with, who i am very very attatched to though he might appreciate the breathing space, and a mother who makes me milo when she hears me get up in morning (or afternoon) . I always get homesick quite easily though it's never to the extent that i go running back home in the middle of a camp or holiday, i'm too proud for that.I'm guessing it'll be fine once i actually get there, it's just anxiety.
And I start my second job next week which will be exciting and that will take up practically all of my weekdays. Unfortunately i don't know exactly what i'll be doing. I know that for the time being, i'll be tagging along with a behavioural therapist as she visits families with autistic children and i have a couple of months to learn what she's been doing for years. Then i do what she does when she goes to the hospital to 'pop' the baby she's currently carrying. Anxious much ? Nah... ohmygoodnessohmygoodnessohmygoodness
But i am extremely looking forward to the next couple of months. I'll be living with one of the people i'm closest too, i'll be working in a job that i care alot about, i'll be doing my own laundry (long overdue as well), and i'm just generally quite excited with life because it feels like i'm growing right now; spiritually, emotionally and unlike other times this isn't like being in a pressure-cooker so i'm enjoying it :) having said all that i really, really should start packing. I'm bringing my fairy tales book with me to Como ! <3
