The rest of my life

College started last night,I think I might enjoy it and hopefully pass or else I have to emmigrate and go in to hiding for the rest of my life,which although does sound really appealing isn't exactly practical.

It is sort of daunting,but I suppose when you have been a 1st year as many times as me and generally suck at stuff it is understandable.

My kitchen floor has tiles,a few left to go down and the grouting but it looks like it maybe be finished in 2006

All my optimism for getting my degree and going far far away is hopefully warranted:)

Old age!!

Last week there was a conversation about something can't remember exactly what but it made me realise I am now working full time continuously for over 5 1/2 years:(

This makes me feel old and like I have accomplished absolutely nothing,but at least I have a nice job on twice the money that I had then:)

On the bright side I collected my student id today and out induction meeting is on Thursday,so finger crossed as looking forward to life as a post grad and getting a degree finally is whats keeping me going at the moment.

I managed to sleep for most of the weekend,so it was completely unproductive but it is the last weekend I have nothing on for a long time(hopefully).

Got some dvds on Sat night - Rumour has it and The weatherman.

The first was funny,the second although not a bad film was highly depressing.

I am currently trying to improve my written irish which is really far far worse then it should be,my spoken is bad enough but thankfully better then the average persons.
