Christmas Eve

I can't believe how quickly this year has gone.. It's kind of scary in a way, one minute it's Summer and the next it's almost the New Year. I've had a good xmas holidays. Kieron came down for a few days to London, he's only just left to go back to Nottingham.

I'm feeling really motivated at the moment. There are several things I want to concentrate more on from now on, my "Goals". I want to start working toward them now.. screw New Years resolutions, they never work. I need to want to do it for me not just for some tradition.

Right the things I need to concentrate on achieving:

Uni:
* Achieving a good grade
* Keeping on top of work and doing more than the minimum
* Doing work when i get it and not procrastinating
* Researching and reading around the subject

Exercise and Sport:
* Setting up pole lessons
* Learning new pole moves (when I can- have a hurt foot)
* Doing strength training every day
- Want to be able to do shouldermount on the pole
- Lifting into twisted grip handspring
* Doing stretches each day
- Box splits
- Other splits
- Backbends
* Walking on my hands
* Join breakdance soc
* Join gymnastics soc
* Sort out my routine for Nottingham's got Talent Uni

Pets
* Spend more time with my chinchillas- Piggy and Gizmo
* Let them out for a run every day
* Get them used to being handled

OneMetal
* Really need to get more involved with this (www.OneMetal.com) I dont always feel like I have time but i really want to start doing what i should be and maybe writing a couple of articles

Future
* Start revising for UKCAT and GAMSAT medical exams
* Write a personal statement
* Get work experience/voluntary work
* Look into setting up a company
* Figure out how I can stay in Nottingham next year

Creative Stuff:
* Keep practicing drawing
* Start writing/reading again

Other
* Get a job
* Sell stuff on eBay



I think that helped to clear my head a bit... I really must stick to this stuff. I don't want to screw things up and live to regret it all.


mmmmm I love Amaretto :) I'm drinking it with coke and watching family guy in the living room with Toffee sitting next to me.

It's so odd it doesn't really feel like Christmas. It was still awesome to have so much snow. It had been so long since I'd gone and played in the snow, loved it. Even though it was freezing I still love the atmosphere it creates outside.
