Life Updates

I've mostly been posting about this on Twitter, but I realise most aren't following that. So if you have any interest in my personal life, or what's been going on, here's a small update for you!
My current housing situation is past unstable and well into collapsed. This apartment complex - although off campus - requires you to be studying. Unfortunately I haven't been studying for the past year, so I realised I was gonna have to move out sometime. That letter came two months ago. Deadline of December 14. Now, there aren't a lot of housing opportunities here in this city, but there are a bunch of apartments being built down the street. I'm signed up for one of them, but there's no guarantee they're actually gonna be done by December 14. In fact, there's a guarantee they won't be.
It takes me a very long time to get comfortable in a new place. I'll have to move back home for a few weeks, then move again to the new place. I'm fairly certain I won't be sleeping well at all until sometime February. That's not to mention the financial impact this is going to have.
So that's the physical stuff. Then there's the fact all this stress has exacerbated my anxiety. Close friends and acquaintances may have noticed my obsessive-compulsive disorder has gotten worse as of late, and my anxiety has been worse too. Then there's the fact I do suffer from winter depression as well, though the anti-depressants I'm on take the blunt of it. Nevertheless it means more mood swings, and way less energy to do just about anything, so that's fun.
But that's enough whining for now. All things considered, I've still got my intellect and wits.
Well. I've got my wits, at any rate.

I just try to remain positive and focus on stuff as it comes up.
