Save It For Later

Many things have happened since I last wrote. Many. And because it seems that my last few weeks in London have been occupied by lists of things I should be doing, or at least by lists that I should be writing, I find it appropriate that I make a list of the many notable things that have happened over the last two and a half months. (Yes, this blog entry is one item on a list I should write.)

Chrono-illogically:

• Spent a weekend searching for sheep and lions in Edinburgh.


• Won* a choreographed team Lindy competition having only practiced the routine for four hours the week before.


• Visited Cambridge. Finally admitted to myself that I would not beat Pitt for the award of "Youngest Prime Minister".


• Got assaulted by a deranged woman (See previously unwritten blog entry, "2am in Vauxhall").


• Received first class honors (A+) on a team presentation for Approaches to E-Business.


• Received a lower second (C- if I'm lucky) on a team presentation for Organisational Behaviour.


• Became the one of the first people to dance Lindy on the roof of Parliament.


• Was forwarded a notice implying that I would be one of the last people to dance on the roof of Parliament.


• Embarrassed myself at a supermarket in Nantes, France.


• Almost drank enough cider at a Lindy dance camp in the French countryside.

As this part of my hunt comes to a close and the stress builds anticipating the next, I have come to a number of realizations. Why don't I make another list?

1. I have a new appreciation for Portland Beer.


2. I have had a massive and positive life changing experience.


3. I don't want to live in London.


4. My disillusion with academics extends beyond national borders.

Subscribe to my TRRS feed for further realizations as they occur. However, I'll have to save most of my reflection for a later date as I am too busy thinking about making lists for things I should be doing.

* We were the only team that entered. Our team name was "The Last Minute Special".

Who knew I was prophetic?	Range Rovers ARE that old
Next president of France?	(Image removed to protect the guilty.) I certainly would never have predicted this!
