we walked away from the lovers leap.
I haven't written in this in ages.
I don't know if I will again.
But, right now, today, I will.
Because I am putting off work.
Lots of exciting things are happening. And they have occurred in an order that has been forgotten. So I'm making my own scale of happening by importance, starting with 'not really'.
-I'm starting to apply for jobs in a month. As in, real grown up jobs. I would like to be more apprehensive/thrilled/anything but I seem to be stuck on disbelief. The end of uni seems so distant. I went to Rob's graduation last week and I couldn't comprehend that that would be me in 6 months. Maybe it's just because of the shock of...
-final year. I had been warned that I would become one of two people: the recluse who panics herself into doing so much work she never leaves the house. Or the person who pretends it isn't happening and goes out far too much. I'm hurtling headlong towards the latter. I have been out far too much, my student loan is a distant memory and the workload is overwhelming. But only if I think about it. Which I'm trying not to.
My research group are lovely though, and I think our project has the potential to be amazing. A month until we hand it in...we should be okay. I also seem to be on track with my dissertation which has shocked me a bit. Maybe I function better as a drunk?
-[save the best until last] My dad, on a whim, applied for a job in France, even though he had no relevant qualifications. And, after three interviews [the last one being in France] he got it! He found out last week that he'd beaten people from all over the world. He starts on the 14th of January. I am so pleased that the dream of moving to France is finally coming true for both of my parents. How I feel when he actually leaves is a different story, but at this moment I am so full of pride and happiness.
