Holiday

For the past 6 months my life has revolved around two things; studying Biology and work. I have slogged my guts out at both, and given my all, and have made many sacrifices along the way.

Today however, I find myself sat on a train, embarking on a journey to Portugal, were Natalie and I will try our hardest to do as little as possible and relax as much as possible!

A week of relaxation has been 6 months in the waiting, and will be very much welcomed, and dare I say, well deserved!

P.S. If I die whilst surfing Supertubos, then at least I died trying to achieve a dream...getting barreled!

Biology A Level Update

Back in December, I decided to stop just talking about Physiotherapy and actually take some action.

I enrolled on a Biology A Level in January, knowing that I would have to sit all my exams inly 4-5 months later, in May and June.

Well, I have finally finished my A Level, and I can honestly say, it was up there as being one of the most intense periods of my life, simply because I was working a full time job most of the time, leaving only evenings to study, and weekends to see Natalie.


This was tough!

Now I am finished, I come home from work and rejoice that I do not have to study for three hours before I can finally have some me time. Ironically, now I have free evenings, I have picked up a Physiotherapy book, which can only be a good sign right?

If my grade is a 'B' then UWE will accept me, and off I trot to Bristol. If I dont get a 'B' then I have no idea what to do.

I've learnt a great deal in the last 5 months, not just about Biology, but also that my passion for learning remains, and my grit and determination, as well as self discipline and control is ever present!

Lets just hope I worked hard enough to get that B grade, otherwise this will all be rather embarrassing, not to mention a complete waste of time and money! ha


Big thank you to everyone who has supported me and understood why I have had to turn down lots of fun things recently. Of course a massive thank you to Natalie for putting up with me too :)

Happy Fathers Day

We finally got the old boy a Headstone. Can't believe it was 3 and a half years ago.

Dreaming.

If my plan works out, 

I will have a career that I can do anywhere in the world, that I can make work for the lifestyle I crave.

I can practise where the mountains are high enough to bike and board, and where the waves are consistent enough to surf year round. 

I can live and work the dream. :)

...and on that bombshell its back to the Biology study!

I started this Blog to document the amazing streak of bad luck I was having throughout 2010, I'd like to think my luck has changed for 2011...time will tell.
