So guys I've been kinda AWOL for the last few months I know.. a whole lotta stuff has happened. I'm feeling really lack-lustre and wondering if any of you guys have felt the same in part of your life.
I quit the part time job in a shop that I got straight after graduating, they weren't paying me enough money to make it worth travelling there and back (it was hard to get to on public transport) and I hated relying on my parents for lifts. I also got really sick of working weekends, a lot of my friends have mon to fri 9-5 jobs now and it meant I hardly had a social life.
I also went straight from breaking off my long term relationship, into another relationship, which has since ended. This last relationship was with a guy who I've known for a long time, always known to be bad news, and guess what, he turned out to be bad news! Lol. I'm honestly ok with it though, I've been feeling un-motivated and down since before that ended, and it was totally expected. It's not played a part in the problem- just keeping you guys up to date!
Aaaanyway. I feel like loads of stuff has just happened. A lot of changes in my life in a very short period of time. And now it's all stopped happening, and I need to start rebuilding myself. I'm a really strong person but I'm kinda struggling to motivate myself right now. I know I need to get on top of my game and start looking for real, full time jobs, hobbies, things to do- but I'm sort of lacking in... I don't know, va-va-voom! I need to get my mojo back. I miss my uni friends a lot and it feels like the friends I have here in my hometown aren't as close to me, so I'm a bit lonely. I want to get out there and meet new friends and do new things but I don't really know where to start.
Anyone been through crap patches in their life and picked themselves out of it? Does anyone have any words of advice in general?
