Settling In...

Hello and welcome to the excuses post.

The main reason I am writing here is to make a promise to other people that content will be created soon as a motivation to make that content, because I won't stick to my own thing, but I will stick to what people hold me to. Or something like that.

So basically, after leaving uni a couple of months ago, I mulled about finishing stuff that I had put off for my uni work, I said goodbye to a lot of good friends who I will not be seeing in the near future and I am re-setting myself up at home (though my clothes are still in the suitcase, I haven't really integrated my bedroom even now.)

Also looking for jobs and looking for the friends that I used to have, of which I've not been able to keep in touch with very many, but there's plenty of time as I will be home (Cornwall) for a few years at least.

That being said, job hunting is difficult, mostly because my skill-set is limited and I'm being far too picky with what I'm looking for, but also there aren't many jobs going around in Cornwall. I did bump into a perfect job today, teaching after-school writing classes, but for some reason they require you to drive, even though the job is local. So I'm going to apply anyway, but that is incredibly lame.

With this 'sorting myself out' business I have neglected doing certain things that I have every intention and desire to do (writing and videos), and I'm being annoyed at myself for having put it off so long. So as a resolve to this, I am going to alternate days between 'leisure and creativity' as of this Monday. The idea being that every other day, I shall not use the PC which I have all my games and music and stuff, and only use my laptop which has been carefully left for word processing, web browsing and basic admin / literary stuff. That should force me to work on those days, even if the work sucks, to try to remind me that it is okay!

I would like to thank my lovely parents for buying me said work laptop for my graduation at university, as it will come in very handy. I shall be using it to post some blog posts more frequently, as these help to spark my desire to write other things.

So aside from the little stuff, I'm expecting to get some decent content to trickle out starting from around Halloween time. So look forward to that, if you care, which I'm assuming you do as you've already read this far down and incredibly boring and nut shelled post from a person with a terrible track record for consistent work.

Thank you and,
Ciao for now!
