A look back on the last year

I rolled over into this year without an apartment, without a room in the hostel and with very little money. In April I found an apartment, and spent a lot of time with Greg, Cameron, Dave, Simon Jacquie and lots of my other friends in the English Gardens.

May started off with a lot of alcohol and very little sleep and then on the 13th I met someone who you all know to be very special to me. Yes of course it's my better half Karin. From then on we have been absolutely inseparable. We started commuting... from Karin's apartment to mine.
It's been more than 7 months now and we've been together almost every day. Our exceptions are:
  1. Karin's short lived holiday in England to see Paolo Nutini
  2. 1 week where I was in Berlin for work setting up the the hall for Sony
  3. 3 days in Berlin to pull it all down again
  4. Karin's week at home in Passau recovering from the Terror that was our hospital experience
  5. Monday and Tuesday Karin stayed down here because there was no point taking the train to Munich and back with nothing to do in Munich
That's it. I couldn't be happier!

Now coming to the end of the year. Work hasn't been good for either of us. So we're both looking for jobs in Passau. We both want more free time together and I want to be able to save money at the end of the month so I'm looking for a normal job. I'm over trying to get qualifications.

I hope you have all had a good year and are having a great Christmas with the people who are close to you and that next year will bring new adventures for everyone!
