Firstly, I wanna thank all you guys for my birthday wishes 
It was really nice and put a big smile on my face.
Phew....what an intense few days! Hahahahaha. I had monday and tuesday off work....and as fate would have it...erm, had to pull a sicky at work today too....I just couldn't handle it.
My birthday was excellent...had a very fun long weekend drinking, hanging out, watching films, clothes shopping, going out and...well....drinking some more. Was fun...but fuck! Thank god it only comes once a year hahaha.
Wow...31...a whole new year ahead of me...how am I gonna spend it...I feel like I've been all about work, work, work this last few years...having a day job, setting up and running my own fitness training company, training to be a therapist, working on my psychology degree...
I'm gonna have a totally different change of pace...I think I threw myself in to work and study for a number of reasons...I didn't find my day job all that challanging, but it was a safe port during the huge IT recession...and also, all of my closest friends left london...and lastly, well I found that while a lot of my friends still seemed to be happy just going out and getting wasted every night...I got bored of all that and wanted something more.
So plans for the next year...me...I'm the plan....work on me, find a social life that is more about the things I wanna do, with the people I find most interesting...work on my fitness, pick my martial arts back up and generally try to find as many exciting/cool things as I can.
Oh...I got the job I went for
The chick who's been interviewing me...called me today and said they just need to know what package I'm on so they can make me an offer tomorrow.
I have to say, there was quite a bit of sexual tension between me and this chick....at least I think it was a 2 way thing...she's certainly been the source of several fantasies over the last few weeks.
I just read a comment on one of squidys threads and it's made me think once again about some kind of career change. Funny, since I just got a new job...but there you go.
The thing is, I hate the idea of doing in 20 years roughly the same thing I'm doing now...and I really don't like the idea of sitting at a desk for all those years. The the original plan was to set up my personal fitness training business and then quit my day job...the thing is though...everyone wants to be trained at the same time....lots of clients, but they all want training between 6pm and 9pm...and besides, I actually find it a bit boring doing it full time...not much of a cerbral challange.
So even though I'm about to start a great new job...hmmmm, is it what I want for the long term. Does anybody else feel that way?
Was looking at paramedic jobs the other day.
