Standing on the edge looking back

Things are progressing at work, moving out of just doing drafting work and onto some designing with Louisa who is our pavement specialist. Need to show her Im eager and guess we'll see how that will go. Working really hard until the other night I had temporary vision distortion after staring at the small things on my screen for about 12 hrs straight.

Got my general skilled migration visa approved. Yay. Got it about a week ago but just found out yesterday. I guess if i checked my email daily like I used to the past 10 years before I started working I known about it soon enough to go back for CNY. Hah.

Ive reached a point where Im taking work very seriously and weighing my social side a bit less. Its good to have a balance and now that Im into work I can really see how hard it is.

Turning 24...I i have one white hair on each side of my face which shine like a silver B29 in the night sky in WWII. Another thing is the teenage rebel is kinda relinquished - just hearing some paramore songs reminded me of what I use to think and feel about a year and a bit ago. Progression?

I saw that the apartment downstairs with the candles is rally really clean inside, wish we didnt have so much crap in the house. Will try to do something about this this weekend.
