10:36 pm	Visiting Dad I went to visit my dad on Friday. Was a little weird because i hadnt seen him for about 2 years. Hadnt spoken nearly that whole time either but was sitting at the train station after work one day and thought i should call and did. His wife is pregnant and due to have a baby in about 3 weeks which is a little weird. He was exactly the same though. He works pretty hard and is proud of what he does, and is always showing how he did this or that or bought this or went there. But it wasnt too bad. Current Mood: blank (Comment on this)

2:08 am	Dream Fluff This dream was a little scary, i was in a plane flying to goodness knows where and all of a sudden the plane stalled, much like a car, twice. There were dressing rooms on board and i walked from there to my seat but the seat belt wouldnt do up. So i grabbed something above me but it snapped. Finally i grabbed the back of the chair in front and just as i did the plane nose dived downward. Then it flattened itself out before pulling itself upward, then flipped over totally backward and evened out slightly before crashing. I opened my eyes and that is when i woke up.

5:17 pm	Dream Diary #2 There was a few things i dont remember from this dream, the most prominant thing that stands out is me standing there looking at the sky and a cloud is there, perfectly formed in the shape of a christmas tree. There were colours splashed through it, the tree was bright and i stood there staring at it for a long time. Current Mood: tired (Comment on this)

6:37 pm	Still looking for a job Yup as the title says, still looking. I applied to about 20ish just today, have been a little lazy what with christmas and stuff. I am really unorganized with everything this year for some reason, i still have presents to buy when normally theyre all done and dealt with. Buuut that means i can go to the midnight trading day on thursday weeee. Nothing like the thousands of pushy people trying to get exactly what you want :D Its exciting though, i think i prefer the lead up to christmas and the preparation more than anything. But yeah, thats made for slow job hunting. I think after the new year i will sign up to one of those job seeker places or something. Am not really in THAT much of a hurry just dont feel like bumming around forever. Am going to sign up for a short course in something in january also, not sure what yet, but i really need to do more and that sort of fluff. weeee! Current Mood: okay (Comment on this)
6:30 pm	Dream Diary + entry #1 I have always had strange and lucid dreams, some funny, some scary, some neither of these. Someone suggested i keep a dream diary, and rather than fiddle around with a million different sites ive just decided to post here. First post: Last night i dreamed i entered the doctors surgery for which i had an appointment, The doctor turned out to be the childhood doctor of my brother. He asked why i was there and told him i had spots on my back i wished to have removed. He nodded and agreed, we seemed to have had this discussion before. I layed up on the bed and he looked at them on my back. The doctor scraped part of one off and put it under a light. He frowned and said it looked bad. He said he would check another just in case. He did the same thing and again it showed up a funny colour. He said i had skin cancer. I looked at him and asked him how much longer i had to live. He replied 'Well put it this way, if you want to eat something i'd do it now. Weird yeah, i think im just worried about the doctors appointment i have on thursday.

2:25 am	Career vs a Job I have decided not to study and to find a job instead. The main reason being i could not see myself studying for up to 8 years only to work 14 hr days for the rest of my life. That and a few other details that are a little to depressing to get into here. I think the worst part about it is the disappointment, im not sure if its everyone elses i am most afraid of or my own. Do i think i could have done it if i had have wanted? Yes, of course. But there is always the feeling of not knowing til you try. Makes me wonder a little about whether it is better to try and fail or not try at all. Oh yes, i know try try try is always pushed and encouraged, but surely after disappointmet time after time again it is better not to. Hm. I dont think i really believe that though, unfortunately. Just a thought. Current Mood: disappointed (1 Comment |Comment on this)

10:06 pm	Hmm Have been trying to find a job lately. Well, half heartedly anyway, so have been a little busy. Am too tired to think about what im thinking so to say, let alone writing it out and contemplating over it. At the moment im seriously considering changing career paths. Im not sure if i want to go to uni to study for 10 years just to work 14 hour shifts 7 days a week. Does that sound lazy. Hm i dont mean it to. Just that i want to work to live, not the other way around. Happiness > all. Someone said the other day something along the lines of, 'when theyre on their deathbed who lays there wishing they had have worked more'. Truth really. I guess with moving, all my stuff being in storage, looking for a job and wondering about study has things all jumbled up at the moment. Dont get me wrong, its not a bad bad thing, just a few extra things to contemplate over. So yeah, things are ok. Not wonderful, but not bad either so im ok with that.

9:25 pm	So Ive been thinking About whether it is better to go with 'second best' persay, than to take the chance and fail with the first. At the moment it is making much more sense to move onward and forward than to live life stagnant. I had a conversation with someone yesterday and they said something along the lines of 'whats life without dreams'. Made me think for a little bit, i agree with that statement 110%. But then i got to thinking, what is life with ONLY dreams. Im pretty certain that it ould be worse to live a dreamless life, i know my daydreams ae what keeps be going sometimes. Hopes, wishes, dreams and all that are so important. At least for me. But then you get the flip side. The side that there are only dreams, and if you cling onto them perhaps you will let a chance of real things fly past. And i dont know how easy it would be to give up hopes and dreams in the hope of finding something better. Maybe i just want things both ways. To dream away in the hope that one day something better will come along. Is it about living in the hear and now or about living for tomorrow. I really am not sure. I guess at the end of the day the thing you have to go on is feelings. Maybe happiness is better than complete satisfaction, who knows. People will always be wanting more. I understand that. But its a damned nice feeling having something to really look forward to the next day regardless what the future is. Current Mood: contemplative (Comment on this)

9:48 pm	Moving and stuff I found out a bit over a week ago i had less than a week to move, a long story with the owners of the house that im not too happy about. They gave me an extention for a few days, then another one until they have some stuff sorted. Unfortunately that means i could be out today, tomorrow or in a couple of days, its all just a guessing game. Because i wasnt sure when they were going t finalise it, all my stuff has been moved to a storage shed :( It was kinda sad to see the things ive worked hard for put into boxes and stashed somewhere until goodness knows when. I hate moving around, and really liked this place and hoped id be able to stay awhile so its a bit of a bummer. The rental market here is awful, last time it took a few months before something came up. There are plenty of places, just even more people applying for them. I think i counted at least 3-4, sometimes up to 8-9 all applying for the same place-on nearly every place- last time. I hate moving. So im just sitting around, waiting for the call to say ok leave with the house 99% empty. Bah. Oh and did i mention my microwave caught fire tonight :/ Im sure this will be funny some day in a bit, but at the moment its rather lame. Current Mood: disappointed (2 Comments |Comment on this)

10:55 pm	I got an i pod hey hey hey hey See subject! After much deliberation and drooling i finally bought it, yay. The only thing is that my dvd rom drive refused to work, so i had to download the software for it off the net. So that took a little while, then another litle bit to figure out exactly how to work it. heh. Bah technology. End of story though, i finally figured out- mostly- how it works. :D Its pretty neat, has 30GB of memory, which works out to around 7500 songs. Plus it has neat features like video player, photo storage and.. da da da.. solitaire! Current Mood: pleased (Comment on this)

2:15 am	I Luff Water A couple of days ago i turned on the water in the laundry tub and then the tap wouldnt turn off. I tried pulling off the knob, tightening it but it just wouldnt stop so i had to turn of the water at the mains. Then today i went outside to turn the water on to shower, and i come back inside and notice that for once there was no gushing sound coming from the tap. There was a slight trickle, but nothing like it was. So now after days i finally have water again. Current Mood: tired (Comment on this)
