Something more, something much more?

Quite recently I've been feeling something strange, something inside of me that's been growing, a sense of discontent but until a few days I couldn't quite figure out what that something was. Then, BAM!!! on the often packed tube travelling home listening to The Killers, as is my want these past few days, it hit me! In a flash it all made perfect sense, what I was and still am feeling is/was that there must be something more, something much more than this to life. I want to make a difference in my life, not just get up, work 8 hours, eat, sleep, get up, work 8 hours, eat, sleep, etc. etc. repeat to fade, but I want to make a real difference, I don't mean in my life but to this planet, this world. Only.....I don't know how to, that's the one thing I haven't figured out yet!    
As to why I've been feeling like this I'm not entirely sure, maybe a small part of it has to do with starting my new job and what will hopefully be the start of my career and therein lies the realization, that the routine I'm in now will be the same 40 or 50 years from now too, then again it could be something else entirely!

Anyway, I'll be sure to let you know once..... if I figure it all out.

New beginnings......

Well, we made it, 2012 is finally here and already we're into the second week!! And the count down to 2013 has already begun but before we all get too excited, we still have this brand new year to contend with and all the New Years Resolutions that come with it too.

It's the first official week back at uni this week but lucky for me I've got the week off due to a little something called feedback week, which I'm enjoying a little bit too much to the resentment of all my friends. Unfortunately its not all good news though as this is my final term at uni, as of the beginning of May I will be finished, it's something I'm both looking forward to and am quite nervous about, mainly due to the fact that I have so much work to do I can't possibly see me getting it all completed in time! On the upside though it's a new beginning, a new chapter in my life, I'll be leaving the student life behind and joining the real world, a  place where you have to quickly become responsible and mature if you're not to be pushed to the way side like an old unused toy!

On a more happier note, I've finally started learning to play the guitar, something I've wanted to do for a long long time now!! It all started when I got my guitar for Christmas and with a little help from a certain friend I'm on my way to becoming the worlds greatest guitar player, well that's if I ever get used to my fingers feeling like they are on fire! Who know that learning to play the guitar would be so painful!?!?

Well I have to be up for rowing tomorrow at 10 past 5 which means I need to hit the sack.

So sleep well.
