I did it

May 20, 2005 1:14:09 AM from JoeUser ForumsJoeUser Forums
Well yes, i've handed my resignation later last friday. I'll be definitely off work as from the 15th of August 2005. If i had said that aloud my voice would have broken. I'll leave to New Caledonia, which is an hour flight away from here. But which is a total different world all the same.

In one way, I feel relieved, that's true.

I'm tired of nightclubs, and alcohol, and doing things that are supposed to be fun but that i dont enjoy cuz i dont seem to see the point doing them without him.

I know, i know, i'm pathetic, but i'll get over this.

I have great hope and expectations for this near future. I will be like the phoenix, i will be born back from my ashes... The end of this era means the begining of a new much better one, i'm sure.

It wont be easy at first, i'm well aware of that. But the fact that i'll have the moral support of my family will do alot. I need some serious heart nursing and a lot of cuddles and demonstrations of unconditional love. I miss that way too much, and no one here can provide me with that.

There's great news too. My brother's girlfriend is two months pregnant with their first child, HOW EXCITING IS THAT???? I'm gonna be an aunty soon

So yep, i'm convincing myself that this is the best move. But i know it'll shutter my heart into tiny sharp pieces to leave this little island paradise...

OH IG this is good to hear. You finally made the leap! It will seem like it's the wrong thing but in your heart you know it's the right thing to do.

A new journey begins and it will be strange even hard at first but I'm sure in the end it will be worth it. Take baby steps and live one day at a time. Plus you can always visit can't you? The old haunts, see old friends. And who knows, you might even visit with a new beau!

Congrats on the expectant neice. Welcome to "auntydom"! Like doc says, don't be a stranger!

Turn and face the strange
ch-ch-changes Oh,
look out, you rock and rollers
Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes Turn and face the strange
ch-ch-changes Pretty soon now, you're gonna get older
Time may change me, but I can't trace time
I said that time may change me, but I can't trace time...

It's all good, IG! I'm so glad for you.

Thanks Danny, the bad thing is i dont even know what to do to make this last months special. I'm just doing the usual things, and that is what i'm gonna miss the most.

Yes, that's my first step, and there's no turning back, and it's so scary and exciting too, got butterflies in my belly everytime i think about it!

Dr Guy:

Haha! It should huh? Actually his girlfirend is younger than me, and i'm starting to think gee, WHEN am i gonna have a baby and live with the best boyfriend in the world??! lol
Best of luck to you. And dont leave us behind on your new journey!

Dont worry, i'm doing lots and lots of savings. I've already got enough money to furnish a small appartment AND get a laptop and phone. So i'll finally have a connection at home, yay!

Heh, yeah, finally. My brother is so happy that i'm moving over. He's always been protective with me, but now i really need to be nursed and protected. I'm looking forward to be closer to my family. Lots of people say it's great but they talk behind my back and say i'm giving up a good job, and life over there is so and so. But i dont care, i'm doing my thing now.
Plus you can always visit can't you? The old haunts, see old friends. And who knows, you might even visit with a new beau!

The visiting part, maybe i will after a year if i get a job right away. And the 'new beau', hum, i'm not really up for it yet. I'll just go with the flow, and take life as it comes

Congratulations on making the move and being an aunty!

Thank you Dusk! That's really nice

Shovelheat!!!!! Now I got that song stuck in my head!!!! HAhaha!
It's all good, IG! I'm so glad for you.

Thank you my friend

I don't think you're pathetic. If anything, you're courageous for taking this step. I'm sure you would have gotten over D in time, but you're helping yourself, on so many fronts, by moving on. Good on you. I wish you all the best. And big congratulations on the impending birth of your first nephew or neice. It will be a truly wonderful, exciting time for your family.

Shovel, Bowie is one of my biggest heros (sorry ) and influences. Nice quote...

Cheers,

Maso

Hey Maso. Thanks for your comment. I dont really think of myself as courageous. I'm going to my parents cuz i'm very low. Seems childish to me, lol
And big congratulations on the impending birth of your first nephew or neice. It will be a truly wonderful, exciting time for your family.

Ouch!  Dont think that.  Think how wonderful it will be to hold the new baby!  And give them back to the parents when they poop in the diddies!

Nah, it would only be childish if you couldn't admit to yourself and others why you are making the move. Either way, you are doing it for yourself and that is good enough a reason as any.

Cheers,

Maso

You sure know how to make people feel better. Here, have a cookie!
