Hello, well I have come to some decisions, firstly I think I am going to move house, or at least home. I don't feel safe where I live and I think that although it is nice to live rent free, I would much prefer to pay to live with people somewhere I feel safe. That is the other thing I want to live with people, I am finding it increasingly difficult living on my own mainly because I feel lonely it does not matter that I see friends, but it is an issue because writing a dissertation is lonely enough without shutting yourself up in a house with no one else. I might also be quite happy not living with a dog.
So the search for a house share begins... I am looking in West Didsbury, Withington and Chorlton. If anyone knows someone who is renting a room please let me know.
I know I just bought a bed and staff, but I think my friend Moe, will let me leave stuff at her house till I buy a house, so that at least solves that issue. This week has been wired in the sense that it feels like it is going on forever, I have been doing uni work, but due to lack of sleep (safety issues) I have not really been doing enough. I have also reached the decision to lend my copy of Civ4 to friends of mine till April (dissertation end date), mainly because (those of you who play this game will understand this) its additive nature.
This morning, however, I have arranged to visit family friends in Aldeburgh at the beginning of December, which I think I need to do. I think that getting away for a bit will also bring some prospective into my life, as well as letting me break down my months into manageable chunks, while writing random (OK not so random stuff) for my dissertation.
Just out of interest was it Schrodinger who talked about a cat in a box with poison being alive and dead at the same time? I know it seems an odd question but I am looking at the effects of observer on participant in usability study's at the moment.
I have been working in West Didsbury at my friends shop, I love doing it, and as a result hope that there will be more occasions for me to do so.
