I have a cunning plan... Or 10...
I've decided to go travelling after uni. Not too far, just around Europe... I know I can't afford to do too much.
Paris, Cannes, Bruges, Amsterdam, Venice, Rome, Naples, Sicily, Prague, Moscow... I'd like to see Austria or Poland as well, and maybe Norway...
I know it's early to be thinking about that sort of thing, but I don't want to just say, "I'll think about it later" and then never get around to it. I've even decided that I might not go straight into economics as a career - I'd like to do something less stressful first, probably more admin work since I love it so much. I'd like to try working in a library or something as well. Maybe work as a councellor? I was told I'd make a good one... And I've always wanted to try a night job as well...
I'd like to try writing a short novel or at least some poetry or short stories. I want to do more artwork as well...
There are a lot of things I want to do, really. I want to go to a concert. I want to go and see a play at the Globe theatre. I'd love to go away for the weekend just me and my Mum - nowhere fancy, just London or Bath or something - and maybe again with Ali...
I'd never really thought about it too much. And now I'm making big plans, and so many that I'm wondering when I'll fit it all in! *laughs*
I don't think I've ever really felt this hopeful about the future, and certainly not in this way. I want a little bit of me to always feel this hopeful...
