Written on an Airbed

I've been thinking about things.

Over the past few days, I've been thinking really hard about where my life is going, and the choices I've made. And I've come to a decision.

I'm going back to university.

It's not going to be easy. I don't want to write off this entire year, so I'll be working through the Summer to get as much of the theory done as possible. Obviously I can't get the practicals done, as they're a group thing, but thankfully they're such a small part of the course that it doesn't matter. Hooray!

There aren't any dorm rooms left, so I'm having to share one with a foreign exchange student. He's from France or something. I hope he's fun!

All this isn't perfect, of course, but that's how the world works these days, especially today. Knowledge isn't something you can just learn, it has to be worked for in boring institutions where opinions are forced on you and your schedule is kept rigid.

Needless to say, I'll be shutting this place down. I won't have time to update it while I'm down there, what with all the toil I'll have to do to reach the top of an arbritrary grading system. I'll be deleting this entire website tonight, as I'm leaving tomorrow. There is no time to lose.

I wish you all the best of luck. And always remember - your dreams are too big to roam free.
