....I have decided to write a blog all about me, yay! Im not quite sure why i have suddenly decided to write a blog, i have no idea how long i will keep feeling like writing a blog, and i have no idea why anyone would want to read it.
I have called this new adventure "becoming a grown up" and this is why. 9 months ago i graduated from my undergraduate degree, and in American films, this is always the point where people suddenly become adults and go out into the real world to be like real people. So in a (fairly successful) attempt to avoid this I moved to Scotland and started a PhD instead. I dragged my boyfriend, Joni, with me, and so far we are doing a very good job of not being grown ups.
In the first 6 months of a new project all sorts of things have to happen. You have to meet lots of new people (check), accidentally convince your supervisor you are a complete idiot (check). You have to find a nice place to live (Check - although its under reconstruction at this point, more about that later), You have to explore the surrounding area (Check, it didn't take long!), and you have to find your new favourite pub, restaurant, take-away and coffee shop, all of which im working on.
Hopefully this blog will be interesting, maybe a little bit funny, maybe a little bit sad. Mostly hopefully it will keep a nice record of all the things im up to, so any of my friends from home whom i should txt/call/facebook/write to more often, who still care, can see what im up to up here is wee bonny Scotland.
