Loving life, moving on

I've been thinking a lot about getting out of here recently. Well, I say recently but if im being honest I've wished to move away for a long time now...

England is rather stuck up and formal. I know people's perceptions of this are varied so if your reading this and you dont agree with me, then that's fair enough, I just wouldn't advise to read on. My blog is a place for me to voice my own personal opinions, free world and all that..

I long to live in a place full of happiness. It sounds cliche when I put it like that but I mean it (and I'm sure so does half the population). Britain is far too pretentious. There are too many 'hoo har Henry's' and what with Conservative Cameron in place, what choices are we able to make for our own future? I mean, look at the state of the economy last time the Conserv's were in favour with Marget Thatcher....Jesus. There's not much hope.

Take me somewhere else. I am not a 'you must have a career or you will fail life' type of person. I want to have a good job, but that does not mean I will do it through blood, sweat and tears. We get an average of 70 years on this planet (if your lucky) and I'm not about to live it constantly making sure my boss is happy. I am a free spirit, my mother has always taught me to be this person and to do what is right for me. I've worked and held down a part time job since I was fourteen and at one point for three years, a full time job and so in no way am I afraid of work, however I can safely say that that three years was absolute hell on earth! Whether it was the job or the fact I was treated like a dogs body day in day out I dont know. All I know from this is that I want to be happy and live a fruitful life, in a place where the public at least manage a smile rather than the straight, hard and tired faces of Britons.

I am extremely passionate about teaching and helping people and this has been apparent all my life. I am a great listener and have developed brilliant people skills throughout my life. However, my future is not planned out to the last detail like some, because if it were, what space have you got for change or surprise?

I have already done my fair bit of work experience and am carrying on with that in the fields I aim to head into with teaching one day; a two week placement at Nine Lives Media in Manchester (the production company for English/American documentaries) and studio work for one week at Dock 10 Media City in Salford. Both I am equally exited for and will take as much out of them as possible, so fingers crossed.

I'm not going to settle and stay in England all my life. My summer is pretty booked up, and I've made a start on my journeys around this beautiful planet, beginning with 15 days travelling around Europe via the trains. I dont want luxury, on this journey I'l be staying in a mixture of hostels, tents and log cabins with very, very little amenities and I cannot wait!

So here's to my next 50 years on Earth! May it be full of laughter, healthiness and good people. Cheers!

(God,  that sounds corny :D )
