What have I done/learnt over the last year:
- Read loads of books commuting to work until September when I switched to sudoku (I was using all my brain power before I got to work);
- My boss is spiteful, lacking in humanity and slightly xenophobic - I will miss her, not;
- I went to Scotland where the people in the cities are friendly and the people in the countryside aren't;
- Met people from all over the world, some of who are firm friends now;
- Discovered my thyroid is fine, but my testosterone levels tend to low;
- Learnt who my real friends left in SA are;
- Learnt my parents actually miss me;
- Became really good friends with my sister;
- Learnt to cook (like a bachelor on the run...);
- Wished I had picked a career where I could use my hands rather than chasing intangibles that live inside a PC;
- Fell in love with London, although I still hardly know her;
- Packed on the weight;
- Had random bump-into's with people I haven't seen since school or before that making me very nostalgic;
- Didn't do any travelling which miffed me;
- Discovered parsnips and sweet potatoes (never ate these in SA);
- Considering vegetarianism very seriously now (I'll keep fish and eggs although);
- Started to grow up, at last.
