It's Christmas!!

Right o, last time i wrote something was a general pissy moan about uni, so i thought it be about the right time of year for a lot more of a positive note.

First things first. I'm not a fan of christmas. Expensive stuff before hand, sales afterwards, people doing silly things with money, lack of christmas spirit in some poeple and far too much spirits inh others, cold, dark nights and silly interuptions to opening hours and the mail service. Not good. However, this year, i've found out that not all is bad, and this year is slightly different because of the credit crunch. Although its been busy as ever, at least the present you get this year are actually going to mean something, rather than pissing away money like we all usually do. Only propblem is the sales will be deadly, but i can cope with that!!

This christmas is slightly different for me as well. Its the first christmas in about 2 years i can say i feel happy, and its all down to one person. Yes, fine say as you will, i am a hopeless romantic, and whoever knows me well will know how much a longed for someone special to come along and show the same love and affection i'd willing show to anyone. Thankfully about a week ago, the lovely little irish Amanda took a shine to me, and on my mantle is a lovely christmas card with the word 'boyfriend' on the front. Just when i was very willing to give it all up for good, and accept lonelyness as another part of my life, she came along. And for that i'm really really glad. (Yes i know your about to throw up because of all this mushy rubbish i'm babbling but still i had lost all hope in women.)

Without wanting to go on how much i miss her or whatever, i'm going to finish here. But before i do, i thought i'd share some of the magic i've felt of the last few weeks. Whatever your circumstance, look around see what you have, not what you lack. All i ever did was see the glass was half empty, look at it and be thankful you have a drink! and drink it! enjoy your christmas, and have a wonderful new year.

Have a great time, much love, now and always, Tim x x
