I went to Nandos with a friend the other day, and forgive me for saying this, but I don't get it?? The food was nice but nothing special, the service was okay and the layout okay. But why the hype? I just don't understand, so I think I shall stick with Wagamamas next time. Sorry.

A new year and a new direction
The truth is, I'm no longer so sure about what I want to do with my life. It seems to me that for a while now I have been trying to convince myself into a career that I am not 100% sure I want to be doing. I know people say ' you don't know until you try', and yes that is true, but I want to try it later.
As cliched as it is, I want to spread my wings and learn how to fly. I want to travel the world and see and experience as much as I can. So I have been looking at volunteering projects abroad, I think that I want to work within a community, helping with whatever needs to be done, and immersing myself fully into the culture.
It's actually quite a nice feeling realising that there isn't any desperate rush to get a 'proper job', because it means that I can live for now and make the most out of what I am doing. It gives me time to do what I want to do. I would go so far as to say that society doesn't fully allow for you to have doubts, it instead expects you to know your chosen career and the truth is, many of us don't. I know too many people who have gone straight into uni because it is what is expected of them, and it gives them three years to fully decide more about what they REALLY want to do. I completely understand and may well have gone down the same route, if it wasn't for the fact that I knew I wanted a break from formal education. Instead, I want to gain life experience and I don't yet feel ready to commit myself to a certain career.
