18th November 2013

I have decided today to create a blog where I can reflect on certain aspects of my life and keep it all in one place.  I suppose this will be my version of a diary.  I feel the need to write my thoughts down otherwise I am scared I will forget them or maybe not realise the true meaning of them. 

The other day I wrote a few lists which I am going to start this blog off with.

Goals in life and things that I want out of life:
(Some of these are more practical, physically attainable goals whereas some are emotional; all are of high importance to me in life.)
  • Finish and be proud of my degree in Physics with Astrophysics.
  • Start my graduate job as a "Rocket Scientist" and develop skills within the workplace.
  • Get a PhD in an area of research which interests me. 
  • Live in another country and see the world.
  • Obtain a PGCE in secondary education of Science (or equivalent qualification in another country) and teach - hope to inspire the next generation of scientists and engineers.
  • Open a bakery in a beautiful part of the world. 
  • Find those that I love and keep them close for the rest of my life. 
  • Become a positive, well rounded and inspired human being.
Things I should do less:
  • Worry about my health: my body is the way it is and it could be a whole lot worse.
  • Criticise myself and others.
  • Worry about what people think of me - I have recently realised that I am never going to please everyone.
Things I should do more: 
  •  Think about the bigger picture and explore my faith and what it means to me - What do I really believe?
  • Have meaningful discussions with people and don't dodge around certain areas just because it may be uncomfortable. 
  • Thank people for being amazing and tell them why I appreciate knowing them.
  •  Write down perfect moment and special thoughts so that I will never forget them (in case of amnesia etc.)
  • Learn Russian. 
SO there are my lists of things I wish to develop.  I will use this blog as a haven for me to process my thoughts, my experiences and my emotions.  Hopefully I will see a development in myself as time passes.
