statements

So yes, i've been promising an update for a long time and I haven't done it.

There are questions that need to be answered as to what's been going on and I don't think now is the time or the place to go into everything but I will try.

Basically I have not been myself for the best part of a year now for certain personal reasons that have lead to me suffering from mild depression. I don't know if I'm ever going to be back to 'normal' or whether things have just changed permanently.

In just over a months time it's been a year since everything started to slide and I just wish that I'd admitted I was struggling earlier.

I'd say I'm 80% of the way there and hopefully the last 20% will come with spring.

Horrid things aside; my dissertation is in and I've handed in my RSA and my Parallel lines project.

I didn't do particularly well in my assessment as I've come out with a C+ C- and a D-. I could lie and say I don't care but I am really disappointed. If I could walk away for the rest of the year and start my third year again in September I would but it is a little too late for that.

I'm pleased to of handed my dissertation in and I hope to of scraped a reasonable grade. Having flu didn't help but there's no point making excuses!

If there is one thing that I can tell you that I have learned is that living for today is important but planning for tomorrow is vital.

I currently have chronic tonsillitis and am sentenced to bed rest, penicillin, warm salt water gargles and paracetamol.

I promise to do a proper update soon when I am out of bed!
