Life is good. Well, on most accounts anyway.

Uni's finally done for the semester, apart from exams and essays and all that crap. I doubt it'll be too bad though, as long as I stay on top of everything. I just finished my study schedule (it's in excel and colour-coded - I'm such a geek). It was quite sad having my last dance lesson of semester today. I'll try to keep going to the city over the summer though, and I'll definately continue next semester. The uni classes are better in general I think, but it's still so much fun.

I've also managed to get myself a job over summer. I don't start till after exams finish, it's well-paid and relevant to my degree, so it's pretty much perfect. Plus, they don't mind me going away over Christmas and New Years.

In perhaps less exciting news, first gig last night, and well, it was interesting. The keyboard died, which meant that for about half the songs I was just standing there doing absolutely nothing. Luckily I didn't screw up the parts I was able to do though.

Oh well. I've got three Threadless shirts arriving shortly (hooray for $10 sales!) and I'll soon be earning some money so I won't have to feel guilty about buying clothes (I need jeans and new Chucks, mine are broken). Some of the money will probably have to be spent on boring things like refridgerators and couches though seeing as I'll be homeless in a couple of months. Still no definite plans, I just want things sorted!

So, the other week Gemma and Erin sit me down and tell me, that basically, they don't want to live with me anymore. This means, I'm pretty screwed. The lease runs out in mid-January, so I've got a while to figure something out, but it's still very inconvenient.

Honestly, I just want to live by myself, but everybody seems to think that would be a stupid idea. Sure, it's more expensive but I can afford it (thank you Swedish government!). And I really don't think it would be that lonely and isolated and depressing. It's not like I'd hole myself up and never leave the house!

I actually went to look at a place today just out of curiousity. A one bedroom appartment. It was really nice actually, the kitchen and bathroom had black and white tiles and it was small, but not tiny. It's much too early to start actually applying for things and I haven't made up my mind about what I want to do, but I think it's good to examine the options.

And unless you haven't noticed, new blog. I needed a fresh start. Hopefully I'll actually keep this one updated!
