Thots
My mind's all over the place lately. What with trying to get the clinic set up and all. But by the same token, I haven't felt more invigorated or more hopeful at this time than at any time in the past 2 years. I'm finally taking steps to where I want to be!
I realize it's going to be really tough 2 years ahead, but in comparison to the year that I just put behind me, it can't get any worse. I've passed my exams, gotten rid of a very negative aspect of my life (you all know who I mean), I'm living in a city where I want to be...so how could it be worse than this past year?
I know it's going to be tough readjusting to life in Vancouver. Most everybody's moved on with their lives and I'm finding that although my buddies will make the effort to come out and meet with me...they're at that stage in life where they're starting to settle down, get married, and have families. I'm 4 years behind...just graduated, just got out of a serious (even if it was all wrong) relationship and I'm just getting my career started. I'm nowhere near settling down and getting married even if I am feeling the pressure a little bit with everyone around me doing just that...
Being here the last 2 weeks has really shown me something though...as much as I'd like to rely on my friends to be there for me, they won't always be there. I mean, I know you guys will be there if I ever really needed you all to be there, but at the same time, you have your own lives and I have to learn to rely more on myself for the little things at the very least. but I've also learned that it's time for me to make some new friends as well.
It's not that I don't have enough (one can never have enough friends), it's just with everybody at a different stage in life, I need to start finding a group where they are also at the same stage as I am...lol, I'm not going to be meeting any single guys if I keep hanging around a bunch of couples am I?
Anyway, enough of this ramble...I've got a lot of other things to worry about other than my social life...like this clinic I'm trying to get started. I'm going, I'm going already! Cheers!

Its tough when all of you're friends are either couples, married, or have no interest in trying to meet new people of the opposite sex...
I know what you mean.

you're starting with a clean slate, and as you say, things can only go up from here!
