Despite all of my best intentions when creating this blog, I have done the unforgiveable and neglected my duties of authorship and have let months pass between entries. Shame on me. And the worst part is that I can't promise it won't happen again! Oh dear.
I suppose I have an excuse as I am back at uni and have been and will be innundated with homework until the end of May (although I dislike excuses generally. I once read that you shouldn't ruin an apology with an excuse, and have tried to live to that ever since. Not always successfully but I do try! Bless.) .
Mid-last year the idea occurred to me that I could return to study, and through a lo-o-ong process of soul-searching and investigation I ended up enroling into a Bachelor of Communications (part-time), and am now in my second semester. This decision came about as I had reached a point in my life where I wasn't getting any younger (I'm the ripe old age of 27 as I sit here) and feeling dissatisfied with where I was heading in terms of my future working life. I am employed as an Executive Assistant for one of the head-honchoes at a university, but this really isn't where I want to be. The job is fine, but it doesn't set my pants on fire.
Another exciting aspect of undertaking this degree is the potential for spending a year studying overseas. I have wanted to move/live overseas for a while now, but didn't just want to end up pulling pints in London like a (literally) million other Australians. I wanted some kind of purpose, and study seems like a pretty exciting one to me.
So while it is exciting to be heading somewhere, the kicker is that 'somewhere' is still a few years off and I'm still in the same job, doing the same shite that made me want a change. Ah, life hey!
Anyways, I hope everyone is travelling well and enjoying life over the Easter break. Thank goodness for five days off work!
Cheers
Tracy
