A Life Realisation & The Rest of the Year

During the last few weeks, after doing my UKCAT, I've had a sudden, pretty life changing realisation. I think it took the sheer volume of stress and pressure I put my self under revising for UKCAT which made me realise I am not committed to studying medicine. My heart just wasn't in it, I couldn't see my self spending another 12 years in the educational system, doing something which I was losing interest in fast. This is when I made the decision not to apply for medicine. Instead, I've decided I'll study something which will lead me into Conservation.

I made this choice based on my conservation trip in Romania - check out this post, to see just how passionate I am about that kind of work.  My main thoughts are to get a degree in Zoology, as I feel I would enjoy this one the most. The expert scientists taking part in the trip had similar degrees: Zoology, Ecology & Biological Sciences, and right now my task is to write a good personal statement and get some local volunteer work in conservation or nature.

So, the nights are closing in, there's a chill in the air, and the leaves on the trees are turning. It means only one thing. The end of the year approaches...

Good job we've got plenty to look forward to!

For a crazy fandom buff like me, October, November & December are going to be the golden months of 2013. The Walking Dead, Sherlock, Dr.Who, Hunger Games, The Hobbit, Thor 2!!!!!!! *pauses to breathe*. As I said, plenty to look forward to. If you're into that kinda' stuff go check out my tumblr it's full of awesome fandom stuff!

I would love to include a few reviews on this blog, so I think I'll start soon. For now, I'll leave you with the promise of a an upcoming series for fandoms: 'An Introduction to...'
