A lot of things have happened and i would say that it has been great.
It's amazing how far you can go in a year when something so horrible happens in your life. To go from one point where you feel like you are never gonna be okay and that you are never going to be able to not cry for a day or a week.
I am in such a good place in my life right now and i try not to think about what my life could have been because there is nothing i can do to change the past so i live in the present and believe in the future that it will lead to.
This year 2013 is going to be great because i am more than halfway through and so many great things have happened.
To start mentioning the great things i have to start by mentioning a great person, a woman who never pushed me too far and helped me get some control back in my life. Inga-Lill..
I thank god i got her switched to be my agent at the unemployment agency, and as the swedes knows having a great agent is quite rare. The woman i had before her didn't know how to deal with me, i mean she is a nice person don't get me wrong but she could never understand what i was going through and what i needed. Inga-Lill never pushed me but she wasn't afraid to ask what i wanted to do.
In February she suggested that we ask at Anybody if i can have an internship for 3 weeks, for me this was a test to see if i was ready to work again.
She called them and asked about it and i went there and talked to the owner and we agreed that i was gonna work there for 3 weeks..
After a few weeks had passed Inga-Lill came into the store and talked to the owner, she asked him if he liked having me around and he did. She then talked to me about extending my internship if i wanted to and i said yes of course.
So i ended up having a internship there from February to June and then i had a summer job there until August.
I really loved working there and i wouldn't mind filling in if there is a need whenever i have time.
It's a beauty supply store that also sells perfumes and health foods so it was something i was very interested in as well.
In July i got into University of Umeå!
So then the apartment hunting started and at the moment i live in a dorm but it's only till February then i have to find somewhere else to live.
So now i am here in lovely Umeå studying to get a bachelor degree in language.. I'm gonna major in English and at the moment we are studying Linguistics.
I love it here and i feel like i fit right in which is a first for me, I've met a lot of amazing people and made a lot of friends.
I think it will only get better.
