So what's been on my mind this past week? University.
I've been giving serious though to going back to uni to do a Masters, my degree is in Event Management so that's what I'm looking at for the Masters.
I've found the events industry incredibly tough to break into, my current job is good, annual pay increases above inflation, offers great future employability and is now developing a variety of skills, but I see where it leading, generic office work and has me quite down. Plus I really wanted to work in events, I'm great at organising and the running of a days events, I really thrive in a frantic environment with lots going on. So I've been thinking going back to uni and getting a Masters would help give me the edge and the advanced experience I need.
I'm little concerned I'm also motivated by personal life reasons. I spent most of my time at uni before in a long distance relationship with my ex-girlfriend and my final year working 4-5 nights a week at my job as a floor manager as well. Between these 2 things I didn't have much of a uni life outside of my lectures. I feel as though that bitch robbed me of my uni experience and stole the best years of my life, I truly loved her and thought it would be worth giving that up because I would be with her the rest of my life. This is of course a very wrong reason to go back to uni, but I sorely miss the social environment, I'm sick of friends who never want to do anything.
Maybe this thought will pass in a few days like the rest of pipe dreams, I don't know, just feeling quite lost right now, need to do to something to put the spark back into me.
Also here's a couple of songs that are really resonating with me right now:
This one because I've been so anxious lately
This one because it reminds of when I was with my ex and how she would say she wasn't good enough for me and I should leave her and sleep around, I actually played her this song in response once, she made me fight tooth and nail to be with her then just left me when she got bored and got lubed up over some guy who resembled her actor crush.

I am doing it and believe me it feels good. A bit psycho I know, but, (a few) of my exes are all losers. Unemployed drug abusing fuckwits who sit about a whinge about how shitty their lives are. too bad so sad I say.
Generic office work - POO !
Do what you want to do and what you feel would be rewarding. Personal satisfaction is a good thing.
Fuck everyone else !
Anyhoo, you will find that spark. Just have to go looking is all..
If you're happy with what you're doing then that's great, anyone who disagrees can go to Hell!
Sorry to hear about your ex treating you like that. You deserve far better than that, your perfect woman's out there somewhere, you just haven't met her yet.
Thanks for the f r, gladly accepted. Hope you've had a great weekend!
