@Smithy:
I've had a very turbulent year.
Sounds like it mate.
I moved house in early January back into my parents' place
Not easy. I could never go back to my parents' now.
Didn't get the job after a bad interview, unfortunately, and I'm still living with my folks.
I know how that feels too but this year I had an even weirder experience.
I had an interview in July for a different position at work. I really prepared for it and it went really well.
Then I got a letter telling me that, although I had passed the interview, due to funding cuts they couldn't take me on.
"If this changes within the next six months you will be offered the post immediately. If funding arrives after six months, you will be required to go through the selection process again."
Apparently they'll be getting funding in April. :-/
went backpacking in New Zealand by myself...
That sounds fantastic.
after which the year started to go downhill from there. Met my current girlfriend,
Hope she ain't reading this. ;-)
Anyway, good luck with getting a new pad and off the drugs.
I've had a mixed year, I suppose.
Financially, it's been a disaster. Until this year I had two people sharing my house.
Both moved out, taking their rent with them.
On the flip side, I have the place to myself now and have moved my studio into a bigger room.
Still with the same girl, DJing in the same club and writing songs with the same guy.
Still as terrible at the guitar as I was last year (I think I've plateaued at 'pish' :-D)
Don't really have many plans for next year other than reducing my debt and hopefully getting a demo together.
All the best,
