Legends of the Fall

I just noticed my last post was in September, so maybe a little update won't hurt. Dark times, during autumn. You could say the attacking things were attacking me pretty bad.
A few days after my last blog entry, I was informed that my boss, who also happens to be my aunt who also happens to have told everyone I was the daughter she never had, was letting me go while I was on sick leave. Coincidentally, this happened immediately after I wrote her I was hoping to return to work very soon.
Now, if ya think during all those months of me being sick with depression, my loving auntie checked on me even once - via phone, e-mail or even in person, you're wrong. She chose to be pissed at me.
I took it pretty hard. At the time, things weren't looking too good - my mom's husband wasn't replying, I was running out of money and perspective plus suddenly, I was out of a job and fucked over harshly by a family member and one of the few people I still let myself remain close to. On top of that, my antidepressants still weren't working.
Desperate, I bid my time. Then I got some money from my mom's husband, enrolled in an animal psychology course and started concentrating on the changes ahead, especially the positive opportunities they presented. Change scares the shit out of me.
But currently, I've absolved three of my twelve monthly dog psychology weekend-seminars. I've applied for unemployment money and if everything goes right, they'll put me in this nine month entrepreneureal programm teaching everything essential for self-employment. As soon as winter break ends, I am contacting the veterinary university because next fall, it will offer anthrozoology as a BA-study. Since that would be right up my ally, I would spend the spring semester getting a college-license (sorta like a GED, but only sorta), taking my business-classes and my monthly weekend-seminars. By September, I could study while being self-employed. Awesomeness. Keep your fingers crossed for me. Please.
I could really need a few things going my way.
