Friday, a great day of the week. It has been my favourite day, since first school. Now it usually takes two turns. I can either feel high. Full of bags of energy and have a great urgency to do everything. Or the flip side, worse still, I am heavily tired and exhausted from the working […]

Following six months and three days without going to the pictures, I decided to put things right. Went to see, Shrek 2 last night at the fabulous O2 Centre on Finchley Road. On my daily journey to work, I see the leisure centre, from my train. As you know, my favourite brand of cinema is […]

Friday, and the end of my official week at work. How has it been? Well it has been very different from what I expected, I give you that. During the course of the week, the commuting was physically causing me some issues, but at this moment in time, I feel great. Maybe it is just […]

Something that I have missed from my previous two entries. I have started reading again. After an absence of some four years, which has meant the last time I picked up a book was during my last A Level English Literature exam. Shameful, I admit. On Monday, I decided against reading a book. I wanted […]

Two days into my new job and new routine. I have to admit, even as invincible as I am to the daily commute, I am slightly tired. Firstly, let me guide you through my first official day. London and the bright lights of the City. It was hectic, that I had expected. But there were […]

Smooth. That is how I would describe several people I know. But predominantly, I have noticed something. That the smoothest people I know, are black. There is just something special, unique or sophisticated in the way they pull this off. A friend, for example, would put on his shades, plug in his iPod and head […]

Went out to Milton Keynes this morning, with a old work colleague from my placement year. We went there from his house, so I got to experience the Golf experience. As you may well be aware, I am not a big fan of the marquee, because I think it is highly overrated. But then again, […]

Preparation is important with everything in your life. Always “Do you homework!” That is something, that rings in my ears regularly. So this morning, I set off on my daily commute, as if I was going to work. This dummy run, was purely to check the timing of the bus, train and then tube services […]

I start work on Monday. Although, somewhat nervous, apprehensive and generally daunted by the prospect of this new position in the City, I am trying to build up some confidence. I have been crawling around various websites, reading up the all important advice to make sure my first day goes swimmingly. It was during this […]

Why do we do it? Why do the English national squad always press the self-destruct button? Why, in the last dying moments of the opening group game of an international tournament do we lose that all important concentration and fall flat on our faces? All that when you are in a commanding position for 90 […]
