Although many of my old AW friends are no longer active here, I thought it might still be of interest to some who followed our story back then... CathBran Niall has finally moved to Germany end of April and we are now happily living together.

Ha! The first entry into my new journal!! I had thought of doing some sort of online diary for some time, and I thought this could be a good start. Although I don't know that people here would like to read details from my real life. After all it is not really all that fascinating. I will just see what I come up with. At least this feature made me re-subscribe immediately after I found myself down to citizen level when logging in today. Me? A mere citizen? Naaaah! Still, I have to do with the maximum patronage for a while - my financial situation is of such nature that I have to economize quite a bit now. It is amazing how little remains of a good income after the deduction of the regular monthly costs. *sigh* I figured out this morning that I had more money to spend as a student (giving all those well-paid piano lessons....) than now!
