I believe that many of us are designed to have a partner. And this is especially true for me. Though I am no longer a young twenty something (or even thirty something) deep I still have the desire to have a partner. Life can be too lonely and too dull without one.
I guess that this is a cliché one. Most people want to do this. But for me it is time to focus. I have lost and gained. Then lost some more and gained some more. I would like to be back where I was a number of years ago. For me to complete another goal of mine, I need to have success in this . I know I can do it as I have done it before. I think that the true trick to achieving this goal is to lose and keep it of. I have so many reasons to lose the weight. I just need to start.

A few years ago I went to Clifden, Ireland to see where my maternal family came from. Go to Cyprus gives me the opportunity to see where my paternal family comes from. Though I have very little to go on, I am hoping that I will be able to get some information regarding where in Cyprus they lived.
I believe that I have emigrated to New Zealand to have this as my adopted home. Because of this, I feel that it is my obligation to be part of the community. And the first step is getting my citizenship
I think the main reason why I would love to be able to do this is because I want to challenge myself. I know that I can do it. This goal was set so that I can prove it to myself. There is a great sense of joy in the final achievement and when you can do it in the wide open spaces it is all the more special.
