Interview went well!!!
Invited to meet the ceo in person next week :)
If i get this, I'm done climbing the ladder. This is the role that will keep me with a safety net.
Something else happened this week which was cool. I reconnected with one of my best friends that I lost when I went off the rails. I found him on Facebook and apologised for my behaviour and he actually messaged me back saying "... I know that wasn't the real you".
It's been 12 years since we spoke. Tomorrow he's going to call me so we can catch up.
I've been struggling with feeling isolated the last few months. Wondering if it's going to be like this for the rest of my life.
I'm so fucking glad he responded. We were inseperable. He taught me to play drums and I taught him guitar.
Thats all awesome! Congrats!
If you been feelin a bit alone you shoulda said. We could grab a drink and bitch about work or games or whatever.
I appreciate it man. I'll drop my number and psn tag in a private message.
Same for you if youโd like to link up and talk.
Easy done man. Will send you my number in private chat.

Ps. This will make you laugh. We made Amr Diab rich. Nour El Ain was our #1 Spotify song.
I saw that yesterday ๐คฃ Well done!
The man loves it. Puts it on every week. Laughs. Now we are looking for a new Arab focus.
yay, this is awesome, so happy for you ๐
Thanks โค๏ธ It's nice when things go your way for a bit.
Congratulations man, and it's so nice to get "your people" back ๐
Fucking aye!!!
Met him the first day when I moved to Adelaide and was there for almost 7 years.
It's hard to forget someone you've known that long and saw pretty much every single day โค๏ธ
Congrats!
Always a nice feeling reconnecting :)
Cheers man. It blew me away tbh. Wasn't expecting a response.
That is such a lovely story.
