Some changes

I recently switched to tumblr from using this place to host my website. I like this as a blogging platform but not so much as a site, it LOOKS too much like a blog despite my best efforts changing HTML and creating pages.

I was just going to leave this here as-is, but I think I'm continue to blog here because it's comfortable. It's all the internet so it should probably be the same here or on tumblr but I feel more willing to share thoughts and words here than I do over there.

So, on the subject of thoughts and feelings and also happenings, I think it's time for some sort of update...


On Monday I finished studying for my CELTA. I have completed all my assignments and teaching practice and now just have to wait for my certificate to arrive and, in the meantime, I have a letter from the college stating I have completed the course to a satisfactory standard. This means I can now start applying for teaching jobs here in the UK and save up for my travels. This is remarkable timing, since I didn't plan for this but, I also paid of the last of my debt today. So I have no credit cards and no overdraft left to worry about, everything I earn is mine beyond rent and my phone bill. Saving can start right now. Exciting, daunting, slightly scary.


My plans are becoming a little more real. Progress.

Cambridge and other things...

Got the roll that was still in Bessa developed today. I need to start leaving it longer between shooting and developing (as I did with this one) because it makes it so much nicer to get the photos back.
