So far this
year has shot by; I really don’t know where the time has gone! It was only
yesterday I was looking to embark on my third year and now that is drawing to
close. However time flies when you are having fun, and that is what I have been
having. Recently I have had a lads’ reunion with those who left the University
last year, this weekend was mainly spent in an intoxicated state and neither by
body nor my bank balance is thankful. Recently I have also been attending fund
raisers within the University, worked tirelessly on both my degree and for the
Enquiry Unit where I work as well as maintaining my ever developing and
rigorous social life. Working part time with your studies really does help in
so many aspects of life e.g. CV writing, experience, knowledge and an
understanding of the working environment.
However it does add extra stress onto your degree as well and limit the
amount of socialising one can possible have. For the immediate future I have
varsity to partake in, I have to now find a full time job as well as finish the
degree I am on. So for the moment I am an extremely busy individual.
The time of my life…
So this
really is the end of the beginning for me, one chapter is drawing to a close
and what a chapter it has been! I have changed jobs, met the most amazing
people, played a huge part in the football society, took part on two University
tours, done “take me out” at the student bar, have jumped in the pond, become
accustomed to spending Wednesdays out playing football and then in the student
bar, ate far too many takeaways and spent more money than one could count. And
soon it’s time to say goodbye to a place that will always have a very special
place in my heart and even more so, the people which I have gained long lasting
relationships with. I won’t lie it will be hard, very hard for me to say
goodbye, but all good things must one day come to an end. But not to worry
before the end is nigh there will be some explosives, some more carnage and a
huge goodbye to the place I call “home “
Future plans…
As stated
above I have been trying to find work as much as possible for when I leave Uni,
the main reason for this is so that I can get straight into the swing of things
and look at moving out of my parents’ house and finding a place of my own, one
that I will probably share with mates of mine. For the time being I am looking
to move out by the summer, from then I can look forward to moving forward in
life and getting to grips with becoming an adult.
