Hi everyone! I have been a little addicted to Reddit lately so I've been neglecting this site. I really like the relationship subreddit there - but I get the feeling if we all responded like they do there, there would be many more tears and arguments haha! They're harsh advice givers, but sometimes I feel that's the best way to be...

ANYWAY, an update on my life for anyone who cares! We'll start it off with a bit of a rant:

Remember Mr Canada, my ex who turned into a nasty, nasty piece of work after we broke up? (TLDR; we broke up peacefully and mutually, then 4-5 months later broke non-contact to let me know he had uploaded a bunch of intimate photos I sent and would show them to people "one day"). Well, I guess that "one day" arrived because a couple weeks ago he started messaging me again. I didn't notice at first because the messages went to my 'other' folder on Facebook, but when I saw them I instantly thought I was going to vomit. Seriously this guy TERRIFIES me now, even though he's on the other side of the planet. The slightest mention of him and my skin crawls and I get upset. I didn't open the messages but from what I could read from the previews, he was now "going to torment me" and "ruin my life" as well as linking me to the photos of myself (just to remind me I guess). WELL. I decided to give him 0 reaction whatsoever. I didn't even open the messages, quickly created a new account, left it for a few days so all my friends added the new one, and deactivated my old account. On the new account he and every single friend I could think of that he had, I blocked. For the first time in MONTHS I feel relieved that he can't keep checking up on me and stuff. I also sent an email to the photo site so his account was deleted there. FEELING SO HAPPY NOW!

Aaaaaand rant over, here is just some boring life stuff!:

- I got a new job and I really don't like it. It's stressful and all about making money for the company which disappoints me. I'm used to working for a university, so the goal was to help students with their learning. Now I know if I do a great job, my boss will be able to afford his 4.5 million dollar house by the sea even more. Ah well, at least I get paid...

- I did TWO belly dance performances over the last two weekends, doing a total of three choreographies. Here are a few pictures and once again, excuse my puku (Maori word for potbelly!)

The candle dance (I'm the blonde in the middle, yep I have big boobs):


The fan veil dance:


And I don't have a stage photo of the third dance, but we got to wear a traditional egyptian dance costume which for some reason included woolen braids?? Whatever, I LOVED it haha! Here's a pic of them (and my awesome makeup skillz):


Hope you enjoyed
