A Ramble through Smilie Land

I have said it before my year starts in September, does that make me awkward and a bit backwards perhaps but it makes sense to me.

So Ive begun to calm down with the whole TOKYO thing. My mum has been delicately hinting about how I most probably won’t get the job, so don’t get my hopes up. The fact of the matter is its just scary enough that if I don’t get it i don’t think I will be heart broken.

Frankly I have too many ‘irons in the fire’ o get hung up about just the one. It would be amazing to go but as a surprisingly sensible person said to me I need to sop over thinking and get on and do other things, so I am trying.

The life plans:

Nothing amazing really Im running on 3( well and side plan) at the moment.
Plan A Go to Tokyo
Plan B London
Plan C still no job.

The main thing I am doing regardless is I am going to loose weight 4 stone to be exact between this year and next. My main problem is I am a stress and comfort eater, in a big way. And its amazing how easily it is to fall back into bad habits, somehow with the bad times I had this year ( not to mention he abundance of free pizza) I managed to gain 23 Kgs ( that is over 3 stone) . SO as soon as Ramadan is over I am going to start shifting weight and getting fit, in time for the 2010 Edinburgh Moonwalk, and start training for the 2011 London marathon. Not that I would run the marathon, I’m thinking more along the lines of speed walking ( I like it better anyway).
If I don’t get a job I am going to volunteer at a couple of the local schools to build up my CV with school library experience that way by the time next years international schools are hiring I will have the experience I need to get out there and get a job. And I am going to either learn BSL or German for the same reason. Oh and pass that driving test.

Its strange I thought I had more to say but I don’t not really. It was a good year all things considered and hopefully 2010 will be even better.
