[embrace] the shadows on the surface

"It's not about being the best, it's about being better than you were yesterday."

Resonates. More to come on my search for happiness and my discoveries along the way soon. 

I'll be b u l l e t p r o o f.

I am feeling rather strong right now, both physically and mentally. I feel a direction to my life.

Climbed the Law hill today which was nice. Granted I am a slowpoke but hey I made it up there. And it was pretty!








I'm also learning to drive. And I'm not going to pretend I'm not a horribly nervous driver (who according to my instructor holds the steering wheel with a death grip- he actually asked if I did weight lifting, lol) it does give me a sense of empowerment. I feel like if I ever had to leave, I have a way to get further.

Save Tonight

I'm back at that point where it's late on the night before the day I leave home. As usual I hate it. As usual my stomach feels funny and my mind wants to escape into some fictional world.

Ollie gave me a good night hug and asked me if I really had to go. Then she demanded my uni relocate here.

This is going to be one of the longest stints away...

I think I need people to anchor me to Dundee. But I don't think that's coming my way any time soon and I can't really see my Jeddah friends ever not being the ones I love most. It's just... they make the most sense. I would be ok with them raising my hypothetical children.

*sigh*
