Since the end of last year I feel like I've been swept away by a tornado and I still haven't landed. It might take me a whole year, but the latest news is that around my 31st birthday I'll finally get the chance to settle down for a while in the alleged birthplace of the best known animal musicians.
It's crazy how things slowly seem to be slotting into place. People who know me have had to listen to me for the last couple of years saying that I wanted to become an instructor or transfer to Bremen, and I seem to be very close to having both things!!
However exciting that sounds… Ok, I'll rectify, because most people won't be the least interested. However excited I am about reaching two of my most immediate goals, I still plan to enjoy to the full the time I have left in Birmingham.
How? I wish I could be more original, but I joined a gym, I want to go and visit friends in Dublin and Liverpool, and I need to make the most of the good relation I have with people I'm meeting here. And I hope this last thing doesn't sound like I'm taking advantage of them, nothing further from reality. I would like to believe that some of these acquaintances can actually turn into friendships. Unfortunately I doubt anything more than that, especially since my stay here already has an expiry date.
Anyway… I am quite busy with work and trying to have some sort of social life, and that is leaving me no time for anything like trying out new fancy recipes, or wasting hours around architecture websites, or watching movies, or even playing my beloved bagpipes (lacking the space as well). So I guess all that will have to way until I’m a bit bored or stuck at home in the middle of winter.
Until then, if you have already wasted a few minutes in reading this, enjoy the good weather if you are lucky enough to get any.
