My mood swings have calmed down thankfully, and that makes me a more pleasant person to be around I think!

Work is going well, I'm getting bits and pieces of study done for uni (excited!!), I'm doing all my miscellaneous chores and time is racing past rapidly but positively. My social calendar is on an up, after partying all weekend, I'm enjoying meeting people more casually this week. I met two of my cousins friends tonight when we went out for coffee and they were lovely, who knows, maybe I'll see them again and make friends. I see Jess heaps at boxing and zumba etc which is good. I've been making a bit of effort with Austin, hopefully we'll find a time in our uni schedules for meeting up, otherwise I might have to take more drastic measures and actually invite him out for coffee. I'm concerned about Megan, that with her working full time and us not sharing lectures we may grow distant but I know with some effort I can find ways to fit her into my life in some capacity, though I may have to get creative. Same with Garvinh, rather than through classes, we'll have to make plans separately to that which may be challenging but I look forward to seeing how we go.

I haven't seen my dad for weeks but hopefully will this weekend. It's just a matter of schedules matching up and communication, which I will admit is mostly my fault. Now I'm grown up, I need to remember that just because he's my parent doesn't mean it's his responsibility to always call me and to always make the plan. My Mum and I get on well pretty much always, I mean, I'm a spoiled, ungrateful brat but she is remarkably tolerant. I respect my mother quite a lot and I know I get a lot of my views from her (though not all). She doesn't always understand me perfectly but who does? She is very good for me and to me.

My netball girls are hopefully going to get closer this season, which is just beginning (excitement!). I met my team (that I coach) and that went well. Three new girls, one the little sister of a girl that was in my team last year, one St Mary's girl and one Holy Spirit girl. Most of my team are St Mary's girls, though they aren't at all close to this one (hopefully that will change) and the Holy Spirit girl is new to the area so will hopefully make friends, though she's the only one from that school so it may not come as easily. My Smith' Hill girl is also the only Smith's Hill girl, but she's best friends with a St Mary's girl and does dancing with another. My three Keira girls all get along well with each other and the rest of the team. And my little sister of previous team member gets along with the rest well too, I don't think the age difference will stop them being friends as she has the family-friends relationship working for her with a few of them already ie mothers are friends and so are all the kids.

My own netball team I get on reasonably well with, as the only Smith's Hill girl I kind of am a loner, but going to the party on Saturday was absolutely the right decision. I really made progress by seeing them outside of anything netball related. When I first joined their team last year, I was vaguely wary, because of them being St Mary's girls, in the same year as Austin's girlfriend, but thankfully, most of them don't like her and run in different circles.

Hopefully they chose to train on a day that I can do, because if I can't go to training, that will be super annoying and means I'll miss out on heaps. Plus I like netball training.

I'm sort of turned off boxing right now. I don't know why, it just happens to me, I build something up in my head to something intimidating and bad even when it isn't. Sometimes exposure to it is the only solution. When work started to make me feel anxious and bad, it was because I was only there once a week and I started building it up during time off. When I work 4 or 5 days a week though, I'm totally relaxed. Same thing. Only difference is I can't bludge off work but boxing I can.

I was considering dropping basketball but for now I have decided against that. I'll keep it up, even if I suck. Why not, right?
