2010...

Another year. Another realisation that cliche resolutions are undoubtedly going to be defied... and doesn't it feel GREAT! (no sarcasm intended)
Now this is not another pessimistic outlook underlining everything that Britain has done wrong or will do wrong, but more looking at the positives that can be taken from a quite average year. This apparent optimism stems from my ending to 2009. Celebrating the cycle of the calendar in quite sensational fashion, with the biggest names in the DJ world... it was heaven! I danced away what seemed to be lingering negativity, which my resolutions were established *drum rolls* to be more positive. I aim to look forward to big events and not be weighed down by everyday routine. Accept and Embrace.... Accept and Embrace, and ultimately SMILE :D <-----
I was beginning to feel disheartened in my university life style and the work that was involved. Doing a hard course demands copious amounts of effort put in. Gym work was getting insipid whilst sports would take a back seat to watching reruns of Dragons Den, Friends or Scrubs. I am a STRONG believer of the motto "things happen for a reason" and maybe this NYE event needed to happened in order for me to comprehend matters and inevitably grow up.
I want to fixate myself at looking at where this will take me. This degree will open many doors for me and in my mind send me to places I dream about... Why be so negative?
My sports and training will give me a purpose and goals to achieve. Plus an outstanding body to result in... Why be so negative?
I could be in a much more horrendous place then Loughborough, but in fact I've met some fantastic people and who offer more then friendship but also give a different perspective on life. And the university is second to none in the engineering field... Why be so negative?
All in all I do not have a bad life. Maybe if this same conception was viewed by everyone, that spring would be reignited in the steps of those with defeatists attitudes.
Now I am looking to keep this positivity, interact with new people and go to events other then Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday student nights. Giving me more to look forward to. This is going to act as my affirmation and when times revert to unenthusiastic ways i will look back on this blog entry and remind myself... Why. be. so. negative?
