I don’t know how successfully I’ve moved to Canada: I’ve been here a couple of weeks and can’t find a job and all my money is gone and my phone was stolen and I lost my bus pass. But I’m here, I love it, I never want to leave.
This was something like a 20 year dream for me, so to be here LIVING my dream is more than I could have ever imagined. I feel like I’m in a wonderland. No matter how shit it is right now, I’m not ready to give up on this dream.

Can’t say I actually learnt, but I did join a class and dropped out after the first one. Don’t really know why I didn’t go back.

Made myself log into my credit card account to see I was just under $100 away from maxing out. And my credit card limit isn’t exactly small. And that’s just one credit card – I’m also paying off store credit for some whitegoods we got when we set up our house (though, thankfully, that’s interest-free until 2012).
The debt is way out of hand, though I do know how it got that way (no, not spending sprees a la “Confessions of a Shopaholic”, but a holiday I couldn’t get a refund on, being jobless for a while and boarding my cat for 9 weeks).
How am I going to tackle it? That’s the important question. And right now, I’m not so sure.
