Welcome to 2009

Happy New Year!! :)

ok a wee bit delayed but anyhoo... The River is I suppose a suitable song to descirbe what's going on with me. I've been quite overwhelmed with everything since coming back from coop. Even the doctor descirbed me as having 'post placement symptoms'- something he's working on getting recognised!

Couldn't sleep til after 4 last night. Got up made toast, cleaned the bathroom and a little bit of kitchen, hand washed a few bits. Skipped classes today. Taking a new stressfree attitude to college. Being too serious and beating myself up for not being the perfect student hasn't got me far before, it has resulted in an F and D2 so F that! On Munchkins advice I'm to go have a pint in the college bar. :)

I would like to encourage a fuck it attitude to college.

The River, best not sang by Garth Brooks

THE RIVER

You know a dream is like a river
Ever changin' as it flows
And a dreamer's just a vessel
That must follow where it goes
Trying to learn from what's behind you
And never knowing what's in store
Makes each day a constant battle
Just to stay between the shores...

andI will sail my vessel
'Til the river runs dry
Like a bird upon the wind
These waters are my sky
I'll never reach my destination
If I never try
So I will sail my vessel
'Til the river runs dry

Too many times we stand aside
And let the waters slip away
'Til what we put off 'til tomorrow
Has now become today
So don't you sit upon the shoreline
And say you're satisfied
Choose to chance the rapids
And dare to dance the tide...
yesI will sail my vessel
'Til the river runs dry
Like a bird upon the wind
These waters are my sky
I'll never reach my destination
If I never try
So I will sail my vessel
'Til the river runs dry

There's bound to be rough waters
And I know I'll take some falls
But with the good Lord as my captainI can make it through them all...
yesI will sail my vessel
'Til the river runs dry
Like a bird upon the wind
These waters are my sky
I'll never reach my destination....
