I will get better at posting more regularly I promise!! It's been another hectic old week travelling for my research but I think that I can finally see an end to it which is great, but it then leads to thinking about how scary that is...
For the past four years my life has been structured as a student around lectures (which were few and far between a lot of the time as a historian), the library (no really!), clubs and church. But now i'm going to leave that all behind at least for a year (will probably start a phd in about a year) and it's quite scary. There's so much i've planned and want to do in the next year but much of it relies on other people. I start a job in October in London, but have been summoned for jury service before then, so my job start-date will be at the mercy of the CPS and the crown. I'm also relying on friends for accomadation while in London, and I will alsorely on others for my phd application and the travelling that I hope to do.
It's one of those times when I wonder how non-Christians deal with all this, I know that I can simply trust in the boss upstairs that it's all going to be okay but what do they do? How do they deal with it all? Do they just hope that things will sort themselves out?
Still I also know that deep down I'm actually quite excited about the next few months, there's so much that will happen and even more that might that i can't wait to experience it all, the only problem is that I still have six more weeks to finish my thesis, I suppose all this will just have to wait until then!
