a good choice

Someone asked me recently if I had made the right choice in coming to Nottingham. My answer was that I don't know but what I do know is that it was a good choice.

I will never know if it would have been better to go to LSE or Exeter or even Bern to do a Masters. Or maybe I should've looked for an internship? Or stayed in Central America?

But I know that I have met lots of great people here and so far it has been an eventful year. I have seen new parts of England and am planing to go to Scotland in about a months time. I have made friends from all round the world some of which I will hopefully stay in touch with wherever the future takes me. I have been to two formal dinners (with a third one coming up), dressed up for Halloween, played ring of fire, bought take-away for supper, and am the proud owner of two hoodies (and more have been ordered). I have learned a lot; personal things, study-related things, and random things.

And the summer is yet to come! Barbecues, formal dinner, birthday celebrations, Edinburgh, sky diving, Switzerland, research, etc. First it is time for exams though. Wish me good luck!
