[5] Procrastination

True to form, I'm avoiding the task at hand; which in this case is the tremendous amount of cramming needed for a 9am exam tomorrow morning.

As I'm approaching the end of my university time, I'm having to really focus on the next step as far as my career stands. It's imminent that teaching is on the cards, more a matter of where and how.
As much as I love Yorkshire, I need to move away and ground myself elsewhere - I say 'need', it is a necessity. Leeds has become somewhat claustrophobic so I intend to travel south, like a bird for winter, unsure where as of yet that will depend entirely on courses available.

This time next year a PGCE will await me along with a new city, new flat, new surroundings - I cannot wait! Feels like a weight has been lifted just thinking about it.

Lecturers and friends have voiced the opinion that it's a waste of talent to disregard a career in the design sector of the world, I couldn't disagree more. I can continue freelancing in my spare time and what's more, teaching is a fantastic career. I do have a vast passion for design, keeping it to myself is a waste, sharing it would be completely worthwhile.
No. I know it. I've worked the hours of a competitive design firm and it's not the life for me, for sure.

I hope this next year moves swiftly. I really do.
