So since the last post things have started to move on a little.
The three interviews in one day was apparently worth it as I got offered all three jobs.
Despite three offers nothing is set in stone yet, but hopefully within the next few days I will know the path life is taking at least for a little while.
I also went to an open day for university last weekend. Something I did not think I would see myself doing again after a BSc and PgDip and the total of 3 universities already. But this time it feels different. When I think back to university open days 5 years ago (my, that time has gone fast!) I just remember excitement and a buzz surrounding everything. I looked at my course, university and the career afterwards as a big adventure. And don't get me wrong, it was, and I don't regret (all) of the choices I made. But what 17 year old really knows what they want to do with their life. Some are lucky and work it out. But I stumbled. I had an idea in my mind and then I doubted myself and that path and went off on something so wildly different that even I am not sure how I got there.
But now older, and hopefully wiser, that path has started to clear again, its like i've started viewing it from a different angle, like suddenly i've noticed I can still get there even if it looks a little overgrown and rough.
So here I am, at nearly 5:30am researching and reading and debating writing a personal statement.
Things aren't ideal at the moment, far from it. I am happy, much happier than I was 6 months ago, but I am not satisfied with life just yet. There's so many pieces missing and without those pieces my jigsaw just doesn't make me truly smile.
