From my list on 43things:

A couple more of these I've "done", some more will hopefully be achievable in the near future.
Number 32 - Get a good job: Well, it might not be fantastic wages at the moment, but my new job in the NHS I believe to be something I'll enjoy and will have good long-term prospects. So I've marked that off with an emphatic Yes!

Okay it's been a bit long since I've last updated and so much has happened (mainly why I haven't had the chance to update), so this isn't going to be a particularly comprehensive retrospect of the last few weeks.

My birthday was ok, not the best I've ever had though I wouldn't say. Went out the Saturday night before - with Dave, Rach and (her ( Read more... )

Haven't really been up to much, largely due to the fact I've not had the money to have done so. Not heard anything more from Bath, but presumably that's the formality of waiting for the clearance with the forms I've filled in - I keep worrying in case it falls through, but I can't see any logical reason why it should. Just that it's taken me this ( Read more... )

All the time since leaving uni (and even before I left uni really) I have been wanting to get my own place somewhere, and obviously now I've been offered the job that's much closer to becoming than it was a couple of months ago. But now it seems everyone's advising me against doing so - my parents, Dave, random other people too - "why don't I ( Read more... )

Finally I've managed to get one sorted - and it's one that I really think I'll enjoy and get on well with, so I do feel a vindication for having been as selective as I was when everyone was saying "well why don't you do this?". Plus it's come at a time when I was feeling a bit demoralised over the whole 'interview thing ( Read more... )

Perhaps unsurprisingly it's been another relatively low key end to another week. Had a really crap day on Thursday - I'm not sure why, I was just really pissed off all day and probably a bit depressed. Just tired I suppose. But had to go in to the job centre for 2pm, so I did my usual of walking in and catching the bus back, but it was just all a ( Read more... )

Met up with Steven last night - walked into town as it was pretty warm and sunny still - and watched the new Transformers film. Quite enjoyed it actually - was what I expected I guess, very cheesey, very action-packed, and it was actually very faithful to the originals as I remember them being, which is a good thing. Afterwards we had a couple of ( Read more... )

..not before time! Not been out the house yet but it's a little less depressing than it's been. Supposed to last at least until the weekend so got my fingers crossed ( Read more... )

Watched the footie yesterday - Weston vs a Bristol Rovers XI, met Steven, Tim and Tim's son Rob at the ground. Daniel was there too with a few from the Nightjar, but it was a little awkard for some reason. The first half of the game itself was pretty good, the second half was a bit dull though ( Read more... )

Am really missing my own PC, which explains why I've not been posting here so much recently - I just don't get the time or privacy to update on this computer of my parents'. Still, things could be worse I guess, lets see if I can remember what's happened since I last updated.

• Went out the Saturday before last (14th) with Steven, Ceris, and Ceris' ( Read more... )
