    I find out later this week if I will have a job next week still.

    I have pizza in the oven and my shows, Castle and How I Met Your Mother, downloaded. :naughty:

    And I have the rest of the day to shoot people or play Diablo 3.

    Having gotten word from Toyota that while they don't actually have a build date for my new ride yet (58 a month going to south Africa, and there's a 3-6 month waiting list. - I have waited for about a month now since ordering), they can confirm that the January price hike skipped the 86... meaning I will most likely get mine for last year's pricing... :)

    Apparently its been longer than i thought since growing out my beard/thick stubble

    seems to have filled in alot in the past year, Im like 4 days in now and it seems to be looking decent so far i still wake up a want to grab my trimmer though.

    Taekwondo tonight think im getting my dobok either tonight or next week! now it feels official!
    Finally if anyone asks if i do anything active i can say yes! :D feel alot more comfortable than i did a month or so back, I could be standing in the middle and instead of feeling embarrased i stop and question something i may have done wrong in order to perfect it.

    What makes my life awesome? And perhaps everyone elses lifes on here?

    I just split up with my girlfriend, a girlfriend who I literally blinded myself in love with.

    We were brilliant, we did everything! Until one little argument changed it all last Friday, we agreed to a break, had arguments during it, saw each other making a massive rift more and spoke about it...

    Until yesterday I split up with her and saw everything she did to me, it was like I opened a door to something I couldn't see...

    This door showed everything though, family, friends...Everyone who loved me...And how I was changing to suit a relationship because I was scared of being lonely again.

    But now, I can see it all and feel amazing, I'm looking at my own place to rent in Summer and everything...But I just want all you guys to look at your family and friends and remember how amazing that feeling is! And NEVER EVER change yourself for a man or woman in a relationship, no matter how much you love them!

    Peace out!

    Good to hear :) Relationships can be blinding, you really do have to take a step back to see it though!

    It's nice that you realised this the next day! It took me nigh on 2 years to realise it when I split up with my ex.

    I passed my exams. Well, kinda.

    An A1 in digital systems, and Cs in Java programming and electrical engineering, but a D2 (compensating fail) in Maths and physics.
    As its first year, and my QCA is above 2.0, I don't have to repeat anything.

    WooHoo

    Took me the best part of a year, then I met the mother (to be, at the time) of my child and I realised it could be different.

    We spoke this morning and I am glad things are sorted. Hell this guy was even giving me advice, when it was me giving it him a few months ago.

    Nice going Jake. Glad to hear you are getting things sorted out, nothing worse than low times.

    As for me, dropped a hole size on my belt after 2 weeks of not so serious dieting and half a week of doing things properly. I am aiming to lose about 5% of my initial weight over 12 weeks which works out at losing just over a stone. The way I am going, I should manage that just fine. Going the calorie counting route using myfitnesspal on my phone and it seems to be working.

    Got another exercise session tonight for an hour which is going to be a bit of a killer but hey, I'm sure it will get easier.

    Yup

    I haven't been eating three meals a day for the past twelve weeks as I work nights and am stuck in a bad eating/sleeping pattern which means I have lost two stone in that time.

    I have been here a year and I can say I have made some pretty awesome friends within the gaming community. And meeting a bunch of them last year was fracking awesome.

    Too bad we didn't get to get drunk with Parge though.

    Leave it be man, keep your distance.

    If what I've read from the last 24 hours here is anything to go by (and it rings a bell all too familiar to myself), distance would be the better choice.

    Do this, be nice and friendly but as you haven't fully said what the issue was then we can't say anymore than that.
