College is over, which is an odd feeling. Many of my friends are sticking around the fine walls of Trinity, either going into Masters courses or finishing their degrees. At times I envy the security that offers them and wish I was doing the same, at other times I'm glad to be leaving and removing myself from that very same security. I'll miss it though.
My job with P&G is starting October 5th, and I'm excited as hell about that. My location is yet to be finalised but I have fingers and toes crossed for the North London placement. Amongst the newstarters it seems to be the most popular but I think its the place that would suit me best so hopefully it'll work out. To be frank after the last while I need the lucky break.
The last few weeks have been annoying mainly because of my outlook. I am incredibly bored, be it at work or at home. Coupled with a bit of a kerfuffle over my degree and some personal things I haven't focused properly in work or while having fun, and as such end up half-doing anything I try to do. At times it has been pretty demoralising. I feel I have marginalised myself from the things I was supposed to keep myself involved in.
So, in my usual fashion, I am looking for an epiphany moment. Trying to find the "first day of...." phenomenon I seem to keep needing. The stagnation that comes from living in Gstones and the absolute mediocrity of my job (and the fact that a new job doesn't look to close to the horizon) doesn't seem to be pointing towards progress. I've been told this is not exactly an ideal way of dealing with things and it certainly doesn't appeal to everybody's sensibilities, so its not something I'm trying to consciously foster. In writing this it helps put structure to an odd mental world-view that doesn't sort itself out on its own. In some ways its therapeutic.
For old times.
I took the original photo some stage last summer and the editing work I did in December.
Anyway, onwards.
