Hmm, I think that I'm grateful to have met every single person that I've interacted with over the past 5 years - strangers, acquaintances, friends, colleagues, and people who I've cut ties with. For better or for worse, they each teach a some kind of lesson - whether this is risk, chance, and what makes us become who we are.

Well, at the moment it's a group of people. I feel estranged from this group most of the time but when I needed help so many of them came to me and I found that amazing and although most of the time I don't feel apart of the group, I'm grateful so many came to my aid.
Welcome @Trisha!
@j95 little brothers are so annoying, but also great at the same time.
@redhead excited for you, I hope studying goes well.
@safari93 love those friends who are happy to let you rant to them 🙂

My best mate. He is just amazing. We have nearly everything in common lol. We probably spend too much time together tbh, but I don't mind. I've missed him during my month in Europe
1) What do you do during the days usually....?
During the week I am usually working. I'm always hanging around outside for work because I'm an apprentice landscaper. On the weekend I am usually playing, watching or at the footy and just general hanging around with mates, playing music.

Spending all my money at Kmart (often doesn't end up a treat because I have no money haha but Kmart is my favourite place in the world)
4) Tell us something you are working towards at the moment
Finishing the first year of my apprenticeship. To do this I need to go to work everyday, go to trade school every week, do all my assignments. It will really be an acheivement when I get to this point at the end of the year because it means I can step up, more responsibility and being more trusted in the workplace. I will also be really proud because it's been difficult so if I can get through year 1 I know I can do the rest!
5) Tell us about a person that you are grateful to have in your life (keep it anonymous, just explain their relationship to you)
My younger brother who is 15. He annoys the shit out of my most of the time. Even though he is 5 years younger than me he sort of keeps me in line cause I know I'm a role model for him and that he looks up to me. I'm also grateful to have him in my life because looking after him and having him stay all the time has helped me grow a little bit, realise how far I have come and be able to help him be better person.
