♥ first day of semester 2
well, holidays flew by pretty quickly.
it mainly consisted of working at reddot (1 - 2 days a wk) and vodafone (2 - 3 days a wk)... except for the last week of holidays, i took off most my shifts, working only the thurs night at reddot.
i've gone out with the boyfriend, caught up with a few friends (not as many as i would have hoped). organised our lifegroup retreat. semi cleaned my room. and did lots of shopping. lots of shopping.
i'm turning my wardrobe around, and trying to avoid shopping at places that have cheap clothes but not really the best of quality.
i've been having pretty bad back / shoulder pain lately. might have been from sleeping on the couch at the retreat =/
well a few weeks ago i made curried egg sandwiches for a picnic i had with some high school friends. and i made lasagna on the weekend. and if you didn't already know, i never cook because i'm terrible at it.
but i'm trying to change. unfortunately, i haven't received much support and the response i've gotten has been pretty disheartening. can't a girl try to change, without having others comment on how long it's taken or being really sarcastic about it. why can't people just appreciate that i'm trying, that change is starting to happen?
anyways. the retreat went well - everything worked out in the end - transport, food, accommodation... i however, was a bit all over the place. my personality is very... hmm. i needed everything to be perfect, organised properly, done my way - which leads to me being stressed, bossy and frustrated. and then when i'm like that, i start being defined as those things by the people around me. which kinda sucks, because what if i was trying to change, but their words just mock my attempt to? not everyone is perfect!
anyways this has turned into a very negative post! which doesn't really summarize my holiday that well. i blame it on my current bad mood.
til next timeee~
