Another update [16/7/2022]

Summer has been going by fast, that’s for sure. It’s already mid-July and I’ve got about a month and a half to finish the final draft of my dissertation (not that I have any drafts at the moment! It’s a work in progress) but there’s been some key changes in my personal life lately so I thought I’d throw them out there, just for accountability’s sake and all.

I changed my mind re where I want to be next year. I enrolled in a PGCE course at the University of Sussex, so in short, I’ll be studying how to be a teacher in Brighton starting in September. And I’m very much happy. I like my life at the moment and I like where I’m going, and I feel pretty confident and the only thing that I want to get done properly now is my dissertation. So wish me all the mental clarity that’s needed to do proper work on that so that eventually I’ve got 15,000 words I’m proud of.

That’s it. But please, do let me know what you think about pavilions on Philadelphia Boulevard because I’m starving for other people’s opinions on that topic. Read about them in this post.

Edit: I forgot to add that today I went swimming in the sea for the first time this summer. I think this was my first time ever swimming in the North Sea, and I found it extremely salty. Probably even saltier than the Irish Sea, though I could be wrong on that. I just don’t remember the Irish Sea being this salty… Portobello water is painfully salty! Anyway, it was fun. But salty. But fun.
