Freedom

It has been a strange time. For the past few days I have woken up and I haven't had any Masters work to do. Last Thursday, I handed in my dissertation. It's over and done with.

Now, I have time to do what I want. For the first time in around 10 years, I have nothing but a job to go to. Since 16, I have been either at college or uni and working. Then when I finally got a job, I had a job that meant taking work home. Then I left that job to work part time and do a masters. So I am now at an odd place, unchartered territory. All I have is the part time job. It is strange.

The Masters really did take over everything. It was all I thought about and it filled my spare thoughts. So now, I feel a bit lost but also relieved as I finally can relax a bit.

I've got loads of things I want to do now. I want to read some of the mant books I still have to read and I want a full time job that doesn't take over my life as I want to do some evening courses. Unfortunately, I can't do that while working the hours I am doing at work. This has left me feeling restless. There's so much I could be doing and I can't.

On a positive note, I have managed to get to the gym for a couple of days running and I intend on going tomorrow.
