So today didn’t kick off in work, that’s Thursday. I have a day in which to catch up and partly redeem myself. Such joy. Yesterday I was feeling pretty blasé about it, I thought that if I get sacked then it was meant to be, fate was finding its feet. However today was a training meeting and I realised again how much I know about my profession, how good I am at my job, my proper job. All this shitty coursework is getting me down, and making me forget what a good surveyor I am. I can go into a house and see defects immediately; little things that more experienced surveyors admit they wouldn’t spot. If I can just get through this coursework, then by xmas I’ll be doing the job I love, being pretty independent, and damn well paid. Come on Louise!!

As I said earlier, I was talking to my dearest friend on the phone last night. The poor boy is so understanding and tolerant of me, I don’t know how he does it. He makes me feel important, he cares, which is something I haven’t experienced too much recently. And in the MOST wonderful and exciting news, he’s decided to move down to London!!! YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY! And he said that he wants us to share a flat! A 2 bedroom flat mind people lol. I can’t believe this wonderful person has come into my life and loves me as much as I love him, and we have exactly the same outlook, sensitivity and values, as well as the same taste in comedy and music! I’ve even got a beautiful perfect flat for us, but it becomes vacant in about 6-8 weeks time, so I really have to hurry up and find him a job! It has a huge lounge with a bay window and iron fireplace, a decent kitchen and even a back patio area! SO rare in London. My god if this works out then I will be the happiest I’ve ever been in my whole life. Living with my closest friend who is open honest and caring, and we can cook for each other and laugh and go out and cry together. It’s too perfect. I don’t believe there’s a God, but I’m tempted to pray so he lets this happen for us both.

Another, minor, good thing happened today. When I got my job back in August I bought an ankle-length fitted black skirt for work, it was too tight but I loved it so much I promised myself I’d diet into it. Well today I put it on and it fits. So I’ve been swanning around today in this loooooong black skirt, black v-neck top and black chiffon scarf feeling rather fabulous. Yay! If only I looked that good out of clothes! Lol. Ah hell.
