It seems to me that once again, time has run away from me
and I have woken up to realise that it is almost August (when did that happen?),
I haven’t blogged in what feels like a lifetime and I wouldn’t even know where
to start telling you all what I have been up to lately. But wow, I have been
doing some pretty incredible things lately.
It only takes one read through of my blogposts to realise
that I have insanely crazy mood swings and that I am probably a little psycho
and most likely in desperate need of a shrink. The good news however, is that
this week I have been on an incredible high.
This is strange considering that somehow this week already
marks the beginning of third term and the beginning of my (hopefully) final
year at Stellenbosch, which means that I should be complaining about how short
the holidays were, how much I hate my new lecturers and how I am already
freaking out about all the work I have to do.
Instead, I am sitting at my computer with an incredible
hangover, starting to get sick and in a flat that looks like it was hit by a
hurricane and I couldn’t possibly be happier.
So what’s with the sudden high? How did I finally get out of
my stupid, self-involved slump? Well the truth is that, as usual, my friends and
family came to my rescue. I don’t know what it was about the last couple weeks
but it seems as if suddenly you all decided to make me feel like the luckiest
girl alive. And boy oh boy it is magnificent.
Between awesome dinner parties, many a coffee date, a couple
nights out and meeting the coolest kid on campus plus a super awesome birthday
party (which I don’t remember) I have done so many amazing things and seen most
of my favourite people that I now feel like a brand new person without a care
in the world.
So, in the hopes of maintaining my new happy state I have
decided that August is going to be a month of smiles, laughter, new places and
new things with all my wonderful friends so that when the inevitable mood swing
happens and I end up feeling like I have once again hit rock bottom I will at
least still have some friends who will pick me back up, dust me off and tell me
to get over myself.
And to all of you wonderful creatures who helped me out in
the last couple weeks, I must say that I am eternally grateful and I love you
all madly.
