some words

aug 07 2006

last week i came down with a cold. coughing all night long and getting no rest at all. so i went to my friendly, expensive doctor and got some pills. they worked and i slept right through friday into saturday. he gave me a course of pills, which i hate... and by sunday my body was screaming for me to stop the chemical, anti-biotic inbalance. now i know it's not good to stop through a course of anti-biotics but when you're throwing up and have constant heart-burn it's just not worth it anymore. so, yeah, i put a stop to that!

other exciting news is that on friday when i attempted to switch on my laptop, the hard drive wasn't there anymore... after attempting, unsuccessfully, to start the damn thing i gave up and resigned myself to having lost quite abit of data. maybe not though, hopefully the young guy who's now got the drive can recover some of the data!

and last but not least... i resigned from my job. the 31st of august is my last day at ripe design. i have no concrete plans of yet. i plan on doing the odd job from home, gotta pay the rent you know, but i haven't looked very actively for another job just yet. i feel like i need abit of time to make the right decision in my career path from here on out.

Wow!
How exciting! Good luck mate.... I'll be home on the 23rd September, so if you still have no job we can do a few touristy things together!!!
I'm moving house in September too - with Emma, a girl who I met on my travels in America, so excited about that. All of you in London are welcome to our house warming on the roof top terrace!! Woohoo!!
Also start my masters at london south bank uni soon which quite scary... but I get a day off work for two years, so hopefully I won't be too over-worked!!
Other than that, all is well here and looking forward to my trip back home VERY soon!!!
