The Big City

I've really not done as many posts on here as I wanted too, mainly due to time constraints, college and my job. Anyway, here's another Blog !

Last weekend I went to London visiting friends. It's amazing how much the place intrigues me, I doubt I could ever find it boring. Such a fusion of diversity and cultures, I stood in Victoria station just watching people going by with a bizarre fascination, who are they? where are they all going - why the rush?

Many outsiders view London as a horrible place, a concrete sprawl of villains, expensive shops and bars but the thing is with London - you have to give it time. During my visits there I've hardly touched the surface, yet I've made friends there and its interesting to see how they view the capital, their perspective. Londoner's strike me as being open minded and non judgemental people, very warm when you get to know them with a distinct sense of fun. They are quirky but so likeable with it, or perhaps they aren't quirky its just my perception of them.

If anyone is reading this then I'll say this to you, give London a try because you just might like it!

Back to Skool

Yesterday I started back to college to continue working for my Diploma in Counselling and Psychotherapy. It was at a new bigger location with better facilities but it definately felt odd, perhaps daunting after the last college which was located in town.

This course lasts till next June and see's two groups merging into one to do the CsT02 qualification, this course being theory based, so we get to know a bit more about how theories work and the people behind them. It was interesting to see two groups merging into one and how people sat in known circles, I'm sure in time we'll integrate more and I think it has the makings of a very productive group.

I'm looking forward to getting my student card at the ripe age of 36 and using it for discounts!

I'll probably be doing more Blogs about my college course as the year goes on. It was nice to see old friends again and I'm sure there will be new friendships before long with members of the other group that have merged with ours.

Photos

It's Me, I thought I'd better add a Picture !

The first Photo is probably around 2003/4

And the second photo is me in April 2006, though the photo is just so i can really change the one on my profile with the URL, and I guess to show the difference how my eye was, and how it is now. The last photsos are 2007 and August 2008

Birth of a Blog

Hello and Welcome,

This is the birth of my Blog, done at work (naturally !) at around 7am on the 10th of September 2004. Iv'e no idea what I will write / type about in my blog but it I'll try and add things on a regular basis. I guess it will reflect my thoughts and feelings on life...
