…and having an amazing time. I am so pleased that I decided on this new move. Everything has fallen into place perfectly. The two ladies I’m living with are the nicest people I’ve met in a very very long time. The guy I was chatting to from this town is gorgeous and such a sweetheart, he’s shown me all around the place and well… who knows what could come of it! I’ve found a part time job and a full time job is looking very promising over the next week. Tamsin (the younger housemate) is letting me buy her car from her over installments so I’ll have that sorted very soon.

I’m so pleased that all has turned out well. My debts are still piling up and money is extremely tight, but with a job and an awful lot of hard work that can all be fixed. I’m so happy to have finally found somewhere I enjoy living. I feel so lucky to be me right now, and that’s a very odd thing for me to feel. Give it a few months and I’ll wish I never knew my old life in the old town.

I just miss my mum and my best friend, a lot. But… it’ll be okay

I’m not moving away to this new town on the 25th anymore. No no, in fact I’m leaving in three days. Saturday morning I’ll be throwing my stuff into the back of my mum’s mondeo and venturing off toward my new life. Of course I’ll be back two hours later to pick up more stuff haha, but once it’s all there - that’s it. I’m excited but frightened at the same time. I’ve yet to find a full time job still and only have weekend work in a nightclub for the minute - but plan to call as many bars and hotels as I can for full time work. Let’s hope it all goes well. If not I’ll look into my administration quialifications and see if any reception or admin work is going - though I’d much prefer to be in the bar trade. Still - I can always change jobs

I’ve been speaking to a guy from that town on MSN for weeks now, we talk for hours and hours upon end about useless nothings. He’s a really sweet guy and has promised to show me around the town. Plus my new landlady called me and told me she’s more than happy to drive me around and pick me up at 3am when I finish working in the clubs on the weekends. Now how generous is that? It’s so lovely to know I’ll finally have two new housemates that aren’t complete tossers.

As for online related things. I’ve updated a lot on this site and added new pages here and there. If you check the menu on “Recent Updates” you’ll see I’ve added two new sections and lots of subpages elsewhere. Hope that keeps you busy for a while

Take care x I’ll probably blog next either just before I go or when I’m already there! Working my last shift at the bar tomorrow and then Friday night is my leaving do. Very exciting, very emotional. I’ll miss my friends something rotten. But a new start is the best thing I could ever choose to do.

So this new town I’m moving to - it’s 60 miles from where I am now. I visited today and put a deposit on a gorgeous victorian three bedroom house. It has three floors and the landlady has a gorgeous black labrador called Bruno. Adorable! She’s a lovely lady, so friendly and easy going. I’m looking forward to living there - much cosier than all the house shares I’ve been in put together.

I sent an online application form in to a club there aswell, a few days ago. They called and asked me to pop in when I was visiting the area, so as I went today to view the house I thought I’d go for the interview. They gave me the job on the spot - I start on the 1st Feb - brilliant! It’s only two nights a week, Friday and Saturday. But it’s a start and extra money on a weekend as I’ll not have much else to do. I’m still looking for a full time day job, but I’m sure there will be something soon

It would be much more helpful if I had a car still. But walking isn’t so bad, I should stop being so lazy! As for the extra cash I’ll have from not paying petrol/insurance etc, I’ll be able to save for something much nicer. Preferably a punto active. They are gorgeous - only £2000 on the auto trader. I say only - but it’s cheap for how new they are!

Aw well - money is such a hassle. I’m off to bed now, it’s only 7pm but I’m so pooped from the past few days. I’ve been very busy and had very little sleep, only about 5 hours in total over three days. Too much stress about how today would go.

Oh and before I go - almost forgot. My dad’s girlfriend has had her baby! Isabelle Rose, they called her. 7 pounds 1 Shame I’ll never get to see her, eh. Shame my dad is such an asshole when it comes to making an effort with his family. Just one more kid to be left without a true father by the time they’re 5 years old. Oh dear oh dear…

Happy new year to all - I hope yours was better than mine. I had to work from 4pm til 2.30am on a private party at the bar, therefore missed the celebrations. Well I celebrated with the guests, just didn’t get to party. Which was actually for the best, I suppose. What with giving up the drink, I suppose I did quite well staying sober and working hard instead

So on the 26th I’m being evicted from my house - my lease has run to it’s end. Another new house and another new lease will be coming soon, it feels like all I ever do is move my things into a new place and by the time I’m settled in, I’m up and moving again!

But this time is different. This time I’m moving to a new town. A whole new place - 45 min drive away. So definitely too far to walk. Which means I’ll be away from all the people I KIND OF grew up with (kind of, considering I’m from London and have been back and forth since age 7). It also means being far away from every ex I had. Every one night stand. Every bully from school. Every asshole I have ever disagreed with. It means a fresh start.

No gossipers, no chinese whispers. Just Laura - a new house - a new car (hopefully, if can afford it as mine blew up) - a new environment - a new job - new friends. And not to mention I’m moving to one of the biggest party/club towns around with a GORGEOUS beach and great tourist venues. Which means my career in bar management could really get somewhere down there!

I’m very excited. But only have three weeks to save lots of money and get everything prepared, which really is not long enough. But I’ll think of something - and I’ll manage. I know I will
