Debt-Free, Finally.

I have some exciting news. As of Friday, the 27th of June, I am officially debt-free. I finally paid off my $3,000 bank loan, and Julian is mine to keep forever. Also, my uncle and aunty’s house is safe. Heh. I can’t even describe just how relieved I am that I paid it off. The entire time, I felt like I had a cloud hanging over me.

A dollar shaped cloud. Ugh.

My other big news is that I was asked to be staff on Writer’s Beat, and I accepted. I’ve been settling into the role, cautiously. Part of my wariness is fear of making a mistake, but I also found some stuff on the staff forums that made me feel.. not betrayed, but mis-informed. I can’t go into it here, but it was unsettling.

I know CLASSIFIED information!

So, other than that, I’ve been relaxing at home. I have some stuff to do; writing for school, and writing for the manual. Mostly though, I want to enjoy my time off. Work ended on Thursday, so I’m officially unemployed; I need to look for another job soon. I’m hoping for two days a week of mindless retail work.

I also really need to buy Grey’s Anatomy, Season Two. Ah, priorities.

    @Tim - Interesting URL you have there. Thankfully I’m not in need of any debt-relief right now, but thanks for your decidedly nice, non-spammy comment. =)

    @Mum - No, no you may not keep him. You don’t need to now. =P Thanks, Mum.
