Basically it's been roughly a year since I am now in the UK. A year and 3 month nearly...

I am happy and unhappy. Unhappy because the job I have currently is not the one I'd like to have. It's a lot of work for not that much pay and a lot, a lot of work, and the Xmas season in retail is just ghastly to tell you the truth. Unhappy because I have to leave a flat I love, because of problems with my flatmate,and also it is way too small, and my room is ultra cold because the window is rotten.

I am happy because I live in a lovely area that I have grown to love,and I am a proud owner of a local card that shouts my love for this area. I am happy to still be in this flat. I am happy because I managed to do DIY on my window and it is now warmer in my room and not the North Pole.

I am happy because I met the most wonderful people ever that I am fortunate enough to call my friends, because I discovered new things that enriched me, and because my english level has skyrocketed. I am happy because I am now the "owner" of a lovely posh and extremely british accent with only a small hint of french.

I am happy even if I move from my flat because I could discover other areas that I may love as much.
I am happy because I am soon to start a new blog that will talk about my life, but mainly visual arts and literature, and in wich I intend to express myself fully.

I am happy because this city inspires my photography, my people inspire my photography.

And to finish and above all, I am happy because I am where I've always wanted to be.

What about you? What makes you happy or unhappy?
