Draw Inspiration From Those Around You…

Draw Inspiration From Those Around You Image

Over the past few days, I’ve had a lot going through my mind, I see people moving on in life, progressing towards their goals and their dreams, and it made me realize am I really doing enough to reach my goals? There are smarter, more determined people in this world that will be aiming for the same goals I am, so what makes me stand out from the rest? What will make a company take a risk and choose me above the rest? At the moment I can’t even pick that out myself, and that is pretty worrying…

Yet again, it’s not too late to start, I’ve got a year left of university and the remainder of this academic year before I am unleashed on the real world, so maybe it’s time to step up the heat and work towards what, I know if I try hard enough, I can achieve. I’ve always been someone who sets real high goals from himself, but at times I have also lacked the willpower and determination to follow through with it. And I’m determined to change that, I can’t face seeing myself sink into a below par standard.

So what am I going to do? Well first off with one change in determination comes a change in lifestyle, I’ve been meaning for a while to get back on track with fitness, I’ve let myself be too lazy and the only one who has suffered is myself…

If You Can’t Make Your Mind Up…

If You Can't Make Your Mind Up Image

Well people, I’m starting this entry not 100% on what I am going to talk about in it, but hey sometimes the best things are unplanned LOL (Hence the totally random picture I created for today’s posting as it’s meant to represent the characters forming whilst typing this entry).

So what’s been going on with me? Well I have been very busy over the past week getting a website up and live for work, which took up a lot of my time, on top of that I worked at Old Trafford as usual on home match days, which in the past week has included the Liverpool game and Blackburn Carling Cup semi final game. And on that note… COME ON YOU REDS!

Anyway, not really in the mood to go off into a football slant today… But what slant do I go on? haha really cannot make up my mind at the moment…

OK, right I think I have picked up on something that I can actually natter on about for a bit… I’ve been thinking of late of my friends, who because of the way my life is are mostly half way across the world, my two best friends, are either in Sweden or Finland, my other closest friends are either in the states or just really bad at keeping in touch, or maybe just everyone is just horrible at keeping in touch…

It’s That Time Of The Year…

It's That Time Of The Year Image

So it’s come that time of the year, the sometimes dreaded Christmas Parties, the Christmas shopping rush, Carolers left, right and center, spending more money than you have… But yet, somehow its a time of year we all look forward to, maybe because of the days we get off work, maybe because its the main time of the year you get to spend with family… Or realistically its the time of year you can over drink and over eat and not feel guilty about it ;-) hehe

So I’ve decided to get into the festive spirit and do a special Christmas post on my blog with a special Christmas caption image of course :-P Christmas for me, is a time of year I get to spend with family, being mostly Greek by blood, family is very important for me, but I think that’s the same for a lot of people during this time of year…

I’ll be heading off on my Christmas Holidays on the 22nd, where I’ll be spending Christmas and new years with my father and my sister, unfortunately my brother couldn’t get the time off work, so it’ll just be my sister and my dad. But at least I’ll be with family, otherwise I may have ended up in Manchester alone this Christmas, and I’m sure that woulda been kinda sad lol

The Definition of Love…

The Definition of Love Image

Hey there again, sorry ONCE AGAIN for the delay in a new post on here, my main computer needed a reformat so I spent a week formatting, installing, configuring etc…

So on with the show as they say… “Love” that well known emotion… But also the most misunderstood of all emotions, it can be the source of all the other emotions, as well as the cure for them… When you are “in” love, everything in the world can seem unbreakable and unblemishable… When you’re “out” of love, things can seem bleak, and tainted…

But I am not here to talk about the effects of love… But more what love is? I guess in a lot of ways that’s a brave question to tackle, and one that I most likely wont be able to answer… Well at least not to a level everyone can accept…
