Reshuffle

I've really turned my life around in the past week. Good news, I didn't die, I actually did kill my exam and emerged victorious. I went down south to see my long-time friend, and he's not doing so well but I missed him dearly and I still enjoyed his company. The plan is that I will move closer to him for work next year, and hopefully I can help him out a little, because so far he's been living off pizza and he's stashed a sizeable tower of empty pizza boxes (which is really concerning). I suppose the good news is that he isn't fat, but idk how long that will last.

Then on the more personal front, I dumped the person I was seeing and found someone new. I think I concluded too early that "this person isn't entirely socially retarded", and tbh he kind of was and I just got caught up in the fact that I managed to stop being single for a while. Like I've been trying to not-be-lonely for what, a good 5 years, and I finally found someone I thought I could be with. Nope, I just got lost in the feeling of being liked, and for better or for worse, I realised very fast the incongruence of my own sentiments. I think I always knew it was going to be problematic, from day one. If I read what I wrote on my blog then, I'm like "huh even then I knew I'd get sick of this really fast". Still, I indulged in the fleeting happiness it brought... and I wouldn't say I regret anything, despite the mess it's caused.

Now I'm living the good life, on a semi-holiday. I'm still working but the work isn't as intense, and I just bought Nier Automata, so I'll tell you how that goes when I get around to playing it.
