Inspired by Katie..
Katie mentioned in her journal that she thought I should update more about my life in general, not just about my degree. So I thought I would..
LOL, and now I've hit a blank..So I'll waffle I guess.
I don't make friends easily,I'm not sure why. I was bullied at school by a group of girls who were my 'friends', and when I decided I'd rather be on my own, a really popular girl befriended me. The old group of girls didn't like my sudden rise to popularity by association and persuaded me to go back to their group. Being the retard I am, I believed they were sorry and were my 'friends' and went back to letting them make my life hell.
I don't seem to make very good friendship choices at all. I've not really gelled with anyone at Uni and tend to avoid socializing with people on my course because.. well I don't know. Maybe I'm afraid of a repeat performance of high school or something? I just can't seem to make the kinds of friendships other people do.. maybe I'm a social suicide or something?
It doesnt really bother me, except sometimes, occasionally, I do wish it was different.. I have my family, and we socialize with people who are predominantly his friends, and their girlfriends.
I've left my revison till the last min, because that way, if I fail or do badly its because I didnt revise. Not because I'm not good enough. Wierd logic but thats how it works in my mind. I'm sure I'll pull off enough work to pass though..eventually.
I'm passionate about animals, to the extent that people really struggle to get a handle on it. I'd adopt every unwanted animal if I could.
I avoid unethically reared meat wherever I can. ALL meat I buy or my mum buys for me to eat is free range from a butcher who can tell me anything I want to know about where my meat came from.
People find it strange that I beleive that just because we're eating something and its going to die for that reason, its no reason to treat it unethically. Its our responsibility to make sure that animals have a 'happy' life.
I refuse to buy caged hen eggs. I prefer to buy them from the farm shop where I know they're fresh and I can see the chickens running around and know they are 100% free range.
I have no idea what I want to do, I change my mind all the time and come up with random ideas about what I 'could' do on a daily basis to fund my lifestyle while on my degree.
Start a business as a nail tech.
Do my BHS exams so I can freelance teach people to ride.
Give up my degree, go to full time work and work my way up from there.
and so on.. lol.
I think my idea of the legal world is based on Legally Blonde, how naive?
I want to change the world, one person at a time.. and think I can do that via the law.
I live with my OH and my dog, in a little village about 30 miles outside of Manchester. Its a typical farming community. I like it a lot, except its really hard to meet people up here because everyones lived here forever! My local farming pub is doing 'learn to belly dance' classes, it seems so out of place! We are looking to buy a house in this area, but because its such a sought after area its very expensive. There is a gorgeous house a street behind ours that is up for 280k, its a mid stone built terrace. There are some bargains to be had if you look really hard!
The things I love about here are the farmers markets, and the saturday market where you can get fresh fish and meats etc (even though I never do). I love going to the local farm store/garden centre and buying my veggies and fruit, so much nicer than supermarkets.
I love shopping, shoes and fashion. Louise from Hollyoaks is gorgeous, and I love how she dresses, but it doesnt work for me!
I love to read, currently reading Jodi Picoults 'The Tenth Circle' I'm not finding it as interesting as 'The Pact' or 'Keeping Faith' or the other one about the little boy who is sexually assaulted (Can't remember its name!) but its still good.
I've just come back from a few days on the IOW with my friend (he lives there)..
Thats me.. lol.
I also will try to update more about my day to day life!
