Getting better all the time

I'm looking for something new.

I have a great job but I am looking to be busier.

I have to exercise more, so that is definitely something to take up my time but I am lookinf for more ways to build my experience.

I would love to manage a band or help them tour. I would like to do some promotions or basically anything music industry wise that I have learned about but haven't had a chance to put into action.

I have been putting myself out there as much as I know how to, telling people I will help them out. Offering my services for free.

I have taken over a friends job while she is overseas!

I am coming out of yet another dark slump in my life. This time I am determined to not head back there until I  have attempted to do anything in my power to achieve my somewhat blurry dreams.

This is where I am at.

Oh and also a new tattoo soon!

Life is what happens while we're making plans


It has been a long time since I posted here.
My life is very different.
I have no idea where it is going.
Guess I could fill you in.

SOUNDWAVE REVOLUTION
Soundwave Revolution was obviously cancelled. I ended up working at Counter Revolution though and had an amazing time. I also made new friends all over the country and some from on the other side of the world. The experience was everything I had hoped it would be and more. There were so many times when I felt like I should really pinch myself because I couldn't believe what I was doing and I was getting to share it with my best friends in the world so I even had someone who knew exactly what I was talking about when it was time for reminiscing.

SCHOOL
I finished school with flying colours! I think my graduation ceremony is in April next year. Yes, I am actually going to go and dress up and all that nonsense. I worked hard for my degree and went through a lot to get it. I guess I should be proud.
I also met some great people in the new class who made what could have been a very difficult experience a really lovely one and I hope I get to work with them in the future as I know they have shiny careers ahead of them.

WORK
I have a new job! Actually, the day of my final exam I received a phone call telling me I have a new job. I work at a musical instrument wholesaler! No, it isn't live music but it is a hell of a lot closer than Swedish furniture ever was.

My TATTOO
I got my first tattoo without a hitch. In fact I will post it with this blog for all to see. It needs to be touched up slightly as I knocked it when it was healing in my old job. I love it. Definately reflects how much I really like cats.

What now?

I also moved house this year. I live with my boyfriend in a tiny one bedroom flat near the city. We are slowly getting used to it just being the two of us. It is a hard adjustment but I think we are doing well. We are also making this place our own and it's starting to look really good.

I stopped seeing my psychiatrist as well. It's the second scariest thing to 'happen' to me this year. I had no idea how I would go. I still miss it. It was kind of like a little step back into my brain on a regular basis but my psych would come with me and rearrange things so they made more sense. I know that I am so far away from the person who first started seeing him and couldn't even maintain a stable thought, but it has been something that has got me through a lot and I am going to miss the security of knowing someone will be able to make it all make sense for me. Going to have to start working it out on my own.


Next year I am working for Soundwave again. Going on the full tour and looking forward to having a blast. Straight after Soundwave I am going to meet up with Mitch and his family in Bali and we are going to spend over a week in blissful relaxation.

Apart from that I really don't know what I am going to do. I still want to travel to America but I don't think the internship would be for me anymore. I also want to travel to Europe and find a job that is more live music oriented and live in a bigger flat and buy a car and lose weight and and and and......hahaha
It's pretty awesome. I don't really need to know what I'm going to do because I'm fairly content within my skin. Yes I have my superficial wants and worries. Yes I have bad days and good days.

Right now though, I'm happy being a boring 9-5er.

Lets see what this new year brings.

Thanks for reading.
