    So, we're already halfway through 2007. What do you reckon the next 6 months will bring you? What are you planning to do?

    I am planning to stay in the UK for the summer, but after that I have had enough. I'm offskis again. I haven't spent a full year here since 2004 and I ain't just talking about going on holiday.

    Next six months I'm gonna be working myself silly. There's Glastonbury obviously, right around the corner. After that, nose to the grindstone or whatever the saying is!

    Been skint for three months and it's crap. I want loads of money :)
    Might squeeze in a trip to Amsterdam while I'm on though ;)

    I have been considering a big change and I'm trying to do something that like really enjoy. I'm busy building up route cards and diaries preparing to take my Moutain Leader Award you need to demonstrate 20 hill climbs before you begin the actual training course. Added to this I'm in two minds of whether to go for an openwater suba diving course or climbing awards; I'm wanting to be qualified in a number of fields to be able to apply for outdoor instructor jobs. I have already got basic leader walking and cycling.

    Or the second option is to find an arts development job, which I'm looking into now as I've got quite a bit, well a lot of experience of commisison and self employed stuff up to now.

    So two ideas from two huge different fields either one will make me happy, I hope. Well for a few years at least, at which point I probably jack it all in and begin wandering and living in squatts, yeah.

    That's pretty damn cool! Getting qualified in doing the things you love... which activity's your favourite?
    Do you want to set up your own activity holiday business or something? Or are you planning to use your skills abroad?

    I don't think they did, no. Last I heard was from some friends who'd just been (going back a fair few months now like), they were saying most of the people they spoke to about it didn't want it. Of course there's every chance they were just speaking to coffee shop proprietors :)

    I enjoy them all fairly equally. Its being outside that has the greatest appeal. In truth I do like to hike, and as I'm anti-social and a painfull introverted I crave being on my own while out there. I was thinking about using the open water quals to travel with, but I'm really just chewing over these at the moment. Maybe I'm going through my mid-life crisis, who knows.

    The next 6 months are going to hectic and crazy and amazing. :D
    Graduation is right around the corner, and I still can't believe it. I move in August to go to art school in starting in the fall. New town, new people, doing the one thing I absolutely love: photography. It will surely be a blast.

    If not prison...

    I reckon the new face of Gordon smegging Brown will make me feel a bit quesy. I think being back on New deal, I might at last, unexpectedly get what I want at last. Some training or apprenticeship or some kind of hands on stuff;)
