New Experiences

Today I did my first full circuit workout at my local gym. I didn't think you'd get much working out done, but I was proved wrong. I'm going back tomorrow for my second workout. I think I could get used to being the fat girl again, especially knowing I don't have to stay that way, and knowing I'm doing something to change it. =D

Other than that, I have nothing to report. Bye!

Course funding

I finally got the letter confirming my student loan has gone through. Very pleased to know I will be getting my living allowance starting March 3. =D One of my best friends is also in the same course, with all the same classes. =D It's going to be an interesting year!

Engineering

Since I started High School, I've had no idea what direction my life should take. I think I have a broad field to explore now though. Engineering! My local polytechnic had a tour of their engineering school today, which I went on. Almost everything we saw excited me. I've never really been passionate before, so this is still kind of new, but getting to play with all that technology... I get shivers thinking about all the things I can create and all the problems I could help solve. I may be starting off as a technician, but everyone has to start somewhere and this sounds like as good a plase as any for me.

I should clarify though - I will be mostly an electrical engineer. Electrical engineering covers all of the fields and specialisations that I want to explore, and any course I do offers slots for electives from the other majors. I'm rather pleased - I've found a sense of peace from knowing roughly what direction to follow in my working and learning careers. =D

Number 1

This is my first blog. Ever. I needed something new to do. I still need something new to do - what happens when I finish this entry?

 Now, given what I know about blogs - i.e zero - I'm going to guess you just write about what you want to write about, right? Try and make it interesting for the reader? Okay then, here's a question for you: if you had absolutely nothing to do besides go to your part-time job for a month and a bit, what would you take up as a way to kill time? I have a course starting on February 21. That's a long time for me to wait with nothing to think about. I've thought maybe I could start researching the materials that will be part of the course, but as I don't actually know what the course content is, I could be learning something completely wrong without realising it. Unfortunately, I have nothing else to do. What would you reccomend?
