This year I…
- Tried to figure out what the hell happened the night before.
- And dealt with the inevitable consequences of nights like those, some good and some less than ideal.
- I met someone promising, and wanted desperately for it to work out, and was thankful that it didn’t.
- Someone saw me at a Wellington bar, and was really creepy about it.
- I got a chest infection, and it sucked.
- I lived on a friend’s couch for a couple of months, and thought about my first love, as well as occasionally exhibiting the symptoms of schizophrenia.
- I went home.
- I went to a place just about as far from home as one can manage and couldn’t help but think about what might have been.
- With all the comings and goings of other expats here, I had to say good bye to someone.
- I reminisced about university dorm shenanigans.
- Most importantly, I realised that right next to you is where I belong.
In lieu of new posts, here’s a selection from throughout the year. My thanks for all of your comments and feedback, they’re all greatly appreciated. See you in 2011.
Lots of ideas, no good ones.
