well, the last time i posted here it was under the impression that i would be finishing the last of my uni work that evening, handing it in the next day and then just having my exhibition to go to before i finished uni.
well i was wrong
the next day, what actually happened, was that i was envolved in a car accident on my way to uni, broke my pelvis in 3 places, leg in 2, had an embolism on my lung and ended up being airlifted to an ICU where i spent a month in a drug induced sleep with a machine breathing for me, then another month after that waiting for my pelvis to heal before i could come home.
My leg is still broke, my stamina is stll crud, i've long term lung damage, a 14 inch scar up the back of my calf, and i'm not going to be able to walk before 2009 at the very least.
On the upside though, huge compensation claim will see me through buying my first home and possibly a car, i've a free bus pass cuase i'm now registered disabled, and i'm getting around £500 a month on benefits, when i only earned a tiny fraction of that at my weekend job when i was at uni. ohh, and i've got a wii!
SKYPE is awesome!

...Now to get out there and get a real job
Anyone know of any freelance Graphic Design work going, feel free to pass it along

Good day today, got a hell of alot of work done at Uni, got another photoshoot organised and i seem to be freewheeling towards getting out of Uni and the Parents house
RESULT!!!
But yeah, after my exhibition next week i'm gonna be done, so i've started looking for jobs. Not going too great so far, but can't give up need to keep going till i get what i want, or i'll never get it
Of course, if i can't get a job based in Design or something along those lines, then i'll have to get a regular shop job, something like that at least, just as a placeholder till i can find something. Then about a month left to find somewhere to live with a couple mates and i'm outa here!
Also, i've decided that i'm gonna get a tattoo, not sure what yet, probably a pretty geeky image, dunno yet
Over and out

So...i'll be finished with Uni by the end of May...wow
My friends are all feeling exited, or nervous, and seem to have it all mostly mapped out what they are going to be doing once that's all over.
I havn't a clue. It's starting to feel weird to be honest, i've got to get a job soon so i can move out since i'm still living with the parents, but other than that nothing much is important. I guess it'll all click into place once i get a full-time job.
With money comes rent, which brings a place of my own. That'll lead to be getting a better social life since i'll be nearer to all my friends, so that's also good. And of course, once i've gotten myself somewhere to live and i'm in a routine i can learn to drive again and get myself a car.
My life seems to be coming together right now, it's like i'm having some kind of haze lifted on the way i've been seeing the world, a kind of clarity that tells be my i'm going to be alot happier, even if i'm going to be joining the grind with the rest of the world.
I'll be able to start setting up more photoshoots too which'll be nice
Peace out, love ya all
