Out Out Out!

It has been roughly 3 months since my return. I am very much over living in the middle of nowhere! Dont' get me wrong- I like Kyneton. The people are nice and the town is quite comforting. However, I feel like I have lost my independance as a result of not being able to get out and about as easy as I could before. Not having my licence and living 4km from the town centre, in a private road just off a major rural highway is starting to fustrate me more and more. So after a long walk consisting of grass rash, several sticks thrown at the kangaroos and a multitude of swear words at the buzzing flies, I have decided to re-asses my previous goals...


(From a post back in October)

"Goals;
1) Get a new job (if retail) that does'nt involve persuasion or sales targets  Achieved

2) Apply for uni Achieved

3) Get driver's licence, and with said job, save for a car Achieving

4) On the topic of money, start several savings groups; Fail

i) $5 a week for an annual designer wallet/bag/jewellery purchase Fail

ii) $10 a week to replace what I spent in Europe Fail

iii) $5 a week for an annual holiday/roadtrip Fail

5) Save enough money to move out again by January In progress.. "

So of all 5 goals, I have acheived 2, and am in the midst of achieving another 2. The whole idea of having 3 differant savings groups have gone out the window- after my brewing fustration of late, I have decided that all my energy and funds are to go towards driving lessons and the prospect of owning a vehicle. I'm going to push myself to have the 120 hours by late January.

Current hours: 64 hours, 55 minutes.
To go: 55 hours, 5 minutes
