Greetings blog world. As the moer eagle-eyed among you will have noticed, it’s been quite a while since my last post. This has mainly been due to a distinct lack of internet but also because I really didn’t have any inclination to write and have been feeling decidedly emo of late and don’t want to bore you all with it.

In Brief:

I have now got a confirmed place on the teaching course subject to a five day placement in a school. I have to organise the placement and have completed it before the 24th June. This is proving stressful.

I shall be training from 25th June until 3rd August. The latter 3 weeks are in Canterbury so I shall be endeavouring to pop in and visit people around the South of England in a vaguely logical fashion over the week after as I work my way back to Mancyland, before hopefully spending a few days in Edinburgh (possibly even during the festival) dependant upon having organised accommodation for next year in Manchester.

Currently decidedly apprehensive about the teaching. I think this is mostly because I am actually moving smoewhere again and it has been a while since I felt I was being productive and I don’t know if I can step up the workrate again. Also it will mean spending a lot less time aroun MUGSS, which much as I moan about how it has changed still represents a great deal of my best memories and friends.

Have also been feeling a bit lonely recently. While the social gatherings have been nice and I have caught up with a couple of people who I haven’t properly spoken to in ages (and indeed got to know some new people) I am starting to really crave a relationship. One of my friends said recently that if they had to live without either sex or cuddles, they would rather have the cuddles. I agree with this sentiment. The part of a relationship I miss most is having someone with whom one can sit for hours without needing to talk or even move and be absolutely comfortable. Hugs are nice and I qouldn’t last five minutes now without them but cuddles will always be vastly superior.

Sorry have gone emo again so I will sign off and maybe write again soon.
