[neverwhere]

Last year, I was standing above the Thames, facing the Houses of Parliament, and cheered with thousands of other people as Big Ben rang in the start of the new year.

This year, I sat on my bed (the only other piece of furniture in my miserably untidy flat apart from the computer desk), holding a bottle of root beer and watching other people having fun on t.v, and when the big ball dropped in Times Square to signal the start of 2004...I just sat there, sobbing pathetically.

That's how I greeted the new year. As a pathetic, lonely failure.

Please don't let me end the year the same way.

I echo the above. Things can only get better from that, and if you have 'get the hell out of where I am now' as your resolution, well, I'd be very surprised if someone as cool and loveable and intelligent as yourself couldn't find a way of making that happen. You also have a whole load of people who'll help if they can. *hugs*

Also - loser isn't a fixed thing. It's a state of mind, which means it's whatever you think it is. There'll be something out there that you can take pride in, and once you've got that, you'll realise you were never a loser at all. :)

I wish I did have a 'get the hell out now' mentality, but unfortuntely I am very stagnant and tend to wallow in my own self created misery.

If only I had a decent job, so I could save up and get the money I need to move back to England...working twice a week (if I'm lucky) at a video shop certainly isn't going to do that for me. Arrgghh.

*smiles adoringly and hugs you tight*
