working the new work thing...

hmm, tis been a while since my last blog, i fear that i am now too busy enjoying life to blog about it quite so much! so 2 very enthusiastic thumbs up to that! it's so great being healthy and full of energy, something i took completely for granted up until about 10 minutes ago when i stopped to consider it.

i enjoy my job, at this stage probably more than the average person and amidst warnings that my honeymoon period is due to expire around christmas time where the reality of working 9-5, 5 days a week should kick in leaving me deflated and ready for returning to studentdom. i won't argue that i don't miss the student lifestyle, it certainly has its perks in the form of flexible days, self-regulated timetables (to an extent!) and plenty time for drinking coffees and waxing lyrical about all things academic, philosophical and theoretical. but there is something so satisfying about finally putting years of theory and academia into practice. each day is busy, yes. with challenges, awkward people, targets to meet and a more structured regime which begins only a few hours after most students are going to bed.

but i am so ready for this!
