It’s been three months since I have been home to see my family and friends in Canberra, and although I miss them all loads, I am starting to get used to life out of home. I love not having to worry about curfews and chores, I love being able to turn the TV up really loud all the time, I love being independent and being responsible for myself and all that I do. Adult life is great, sure there is so much that I have to pay for but I actually really like budgeting and working towards rent/bills each month. It feels like the hours that I put into work is actually helping me survive (which duh Savannah, It is) Living out of home is making me more motivated to get up and go to work, missing one day at work could be the difference of having enough money to pay certain bills or be able to go out and socialize with my housemates. I miss Mum and Dad heaps and it takes moving out of home for me to actually see and appreciate how much they did for me and the sacrifices they had to make. I feel like I have matured a lot more over the last three months and I am starting to become more outgoing and comfortable within myself.
On Thursday last week I made the decision to get my haircut after roughly a year of growing it out. It was actually a really big decision that I had to make and it made me quite anxious to do. I had really gotten used to just scraping my hair up into a messy bun and then not worrying about it for the rest of the day, so at the length it is now its taking some getting used to. I really do like the cut though, I had quite a few people tell me to get it cut into a concave bob so I made the leap of faith and did it! It goes pretty nicely with my new glasses which I have had to get. I made a comment to my housemate the other day that I feel as if I am "cutting away my Canberra" and I standby that statement. I feel like it’s me turning over a new leaf and even though I almost had a panic attack while getting my hair cut, I feel like I have made the right decision to do so.
Work has become much more enjoyable. I am making a heap of friends at work now and I am settling well. I feel like my managers are starting to trust me more and are giving me harder jobs to do and more hours which is a great challenge and I am so grateful for the job I have. Looking back at how my life was when I first moved to Melbourne three months ago, things have really turned around for me. I am happier and I am so thankful for the support that I have received from my Family and Friends during the hard times that I have had.
