I am typing this at 11:11, our jinxed time. It’s pretty funny how much one notices something after hearing about it from everywhere. Spooky.
Today was fabulous. DHL delivered my prints for my exhibition and they looked stunning. I am absolutely stoked with them, and we were all squealing with excitement (or at least I was doing it loud enough for everyone!) We rushed out to buy velcro, we got 4 metres worth and Nay and I spent lunch time sticking them on. Then we and Libby went up to college with them and hung them up in my space. I was so happy, I felt like dancing and running around like a sore-winner. We looked at everyone else’s and there were some very odd ones as well as some incredible ones too, the variety was staggering.
We then went for Macca’s and sat at Southbank to gobble it down. The Sun kept disappearing behind clouds and we got a bit chilly with the wind coming in off the river, so we hopped back on a train and spent the afternoon all working on our own little things.
All in all, it has been a really productive day. I feel a good change around the corner and I am very excited. I think I’ve learned a lot today, and I feel all the more wiser for learning it. I am so, so, so grateful to Nay for helping me through this most stressful process of panicking, chasing prints and finally hanging them. Libby was pretty good too at helping out, but not as good as Nathan was. [:
I should get some shut eye. I have a driving lesson tomorrow (sigh), but hopefully this’ll be one of the last ones! My test is now in just over a week and I’m really looking forward to it. I want to turn over a new leaf, I want to make every bad into something good. So what if I fail this next test? I’ll just retake it for the 4th time, who cares? I know I feel good enough this time to pass, and that’s what I’ll set out to do and this time I won’t nearly pass out in the waiting room! Bring on lucky number 3.
Nathan, what you have done for me today means everything to me. Words cannot express how much easier you have made everything and words cannot thank you enough for everything you have done. You really have been my sanity and I’m so sorry if I’ve been a complete scrooge, I know I have been. I love you dearly and to hear you say today how proud you were of me made this all finally worthwhile. Thank you Nay, thank you so much. I love you. <3
