I am studying a law conversion course at The College of Law next year so I have been spending quite a lot of my time researching law companies and trying to sort out a training contract for 2011. Unfortunately I have, thus far, only managed to submit one application although I have received an invite, as of yesterday, to an interview at the end of June. Seeing as so much money rests on this - 2 years sponsorship worth about 25K and 2 year contract with the firm after this I'll be making every effort to succeed, including - reluctantly - cutting off most of my hair to give a professional image, so any hair style suggestions preferably with pictures are welcome.
In other news I am also trying to get my creative writing in full swing. There's the start of a novel I've had hanging around for the past 9 months that I haven't touched much which is about six chapters long, but I just tend to find that after that amount of time it's best to try and start another project. I'm struggling with this one, but I bashed out a quick 700 word introduction to a piece this evening, so if I can keep doing that (and ideally a LOT more) a few evenings a week and then a lot more over the weekend I could get things going again.
