I'm breaking up with her

We have had a lot of good times. Although due to work it was mainly a weekend thing. Maybe this was for the best. Weekends together always lead to crazy fun and silly decisions. Regrets the next morning and painful goodbyes. I didn't ever think i would have to break it off. why should something good come to an end? But not only did she simply cost me too much money. I found myself going out of my way to appease her, wrecking and tiring myself out when we were together at nights, meaning that i could not do anything the following day. Sweet lady liquor, for now, it is over.

I had been thinking about it for a while without seriously doing anything about it but i had a dream the other night about a tooth falling out. A big tooth as well and it hurt like crazy. For anyone out there interested in dream interpretations, you may know that this means that change is coming. For me, i hope it to be a pretty large change in work ethic, health and performance. For too long my weekends consisted of me doing everything except opening my school books. Writing more drunken texts than i did essays and reading more about bottle cap trivia than Australian Economics. There will be some exceptions... ANZAC Day depends on me  having a few, as does a couple of birthdays... but these will be few and far between (until Hawaii!).

Weekends during the day were put aside for recovery. This consisted of staying in bed for as long as possible. Then moving to the lounge and finally to the floor (my favourite). The lack of exercise (which was only ever drunken leapfrog) meant that for the last three times i have been to the gym they have had a body bag ready for me - just in case.

Cash is becoming an issue. Hawaii is fast approaching and my debt has been rising like the Aussie dollar. if i want to make the most of it, i need to save my dollars! I have $15 left of my winnings from the races last week. And i won quite a lot! Time to repair some debt and save for another amazing adventure.

Uni has been good to me so far this semester. I am having a bit of fun, making some friends, lazing about... everything except studying. I badly want to finish and move to London... but now realise to do this requires some effort at my end. Eeep!

It looks like study will be my replacement to fun. Will need to go all Mary Poppins on this thing and turn it into a game and make it fun. I wish i could just snap my fingers and have all my assessments done!

I hope i surprise everyone (and myself!) with my will power!

  1. Good on you! Sometimes, as much as it sucks to admit it, some of the things we enjoy are also some of the things that are holding us back from being the best we can be. XD
