i thought it would be easy. but this is not. it is mentally exhausting. i’ve got ten more days of it though – hopefully!

i’m in the search of a new person to come and take over my current place. this is the part that’s mentally exhausting. otherwise it’s all clear cut.

amidst all my worries about finally being able to do this, i’ve got good news! i found a place and am moving out in two weeks!! =) now onto the packing and planning… more work.

still haven’t moved yet, but more determined to do so! time’s moving closer and closer to my deadline :S who’d ever thought it’d be so difficult to find a decent place in brisbane!

so i had a look at a place on wednesday. i had my bets on this place and was hoping that in two weeks i’d be in my own place with my own rules. but unfortunately, it didn’t live up to my expectations… so i’m back to looking again and getting discouraged by rent prices and the lack of decent apartments. :( but i HAVE to make it happen.

this is going to happen soon… either next month or the month after. my goal is to move before the end of october (my birthday :D). i’m currently looking at places. it’s been difficult to find places that i really like even though i decided to up my budget on rent. so that’s the first step – to find the new place.

i went to ikea with my housemate yesterday… and the whole guilt feeling swept over me. but i gotta keep telling myself that i WILL do this no matter what.

i cleaned up my room today and re-discovered my uni folders. they’re going to be a pain to carry when i move. i wonder if i should throw them out or keep them just in case. maybe i’m being sentimental cuz i haven’t looked at them ever since graduation.

Hopefully, I’m moving soon. I just went and looked at a place last night and I could definitely see myself living there. There is one drawback however, it’s not very close to anything and I won’t be around many people in a social setting as I am now. I need my business to go forward and this is the best way – living in a creative atmosphere. I’m almost 32 and it’s time I stop worrying constantly about social life and focus on my professional life. Once I do this, my hopes are that everything else will fall into place.

I had to do it to get married. My husband is in the Air Force. I was more than willing to do it, but I am definitely missing home and still adjusting.
