It's time to rethink...study, work and play.

It's time to rethink, redraw, rewrite and redo pretty much everything. Again I find myself in the same place I was about 13 months ago. No studying, no job, no clue what to do. I look at opportunities in the UK and chances seem very few and extremely far between. You have to be the best to get the average currently it seems. Will businesses take risks on a untrained worker? will they offer to train up someone who is out of school? rarely...Going to university seemed like an opportunity I could no pass up again.

I've finished my first year and well, I seem more lost than when I started, as the year progressed the more I seemed to lose interest. Maybe it was fatigue or maybe deep down I just realise it isn't for me. If you are interested in knowing, I do Journalism, lots of writing rather short pieces that you really have no care for, most of the stories we practiced with made me rather depressed. From Armed robbery to much more gruesome "student kills landlord then turns gun on himself" stories...All fictional but still not going to put a smile on your face.

So now I turn my attention to...Well that's the problem, I don't know. I want to be in the media, I want to write, I want to create...but what?! It may take me some time to write something of worth so what do I do in the meant time? Jobs in the UK seem hard enough to get, being 20 and never worked I dont exactly have a glowing CV to speak of. Perhaps Abroad? the world revolves around money, so do you travel around to work, earning money to pursue your wants and desires? This possibility is available to be luckily, having 2 passports (UK and Australian) I have a easy entry to another place of work.

Anyway I believe that this blog has just been for me rather than for you...sorry...but since I think no one will actually read this then I'm writing for myself...so essentially talking to myself....I should stop that.

Thank you for reading if you did. Hope it was insightful and maybe funny and maybe helps you.
