Hello England!
I'm back in England now so this really will no longer be blogged from the Land of the Free. I'm quite looking forward to a summer of nothing but work work work as I really could do with the extra cash. I got two nice emails in my inbox yesterday from two companies who came across my resume online. Such is the beauty of a connected world. I have an interview for a post on Friday in Bristol.I suppose it's good to take a moment and take stock of just what the hell I've been up to since last August. When I packed my bags last year, I really did not know what to anticipate. From the the very start, i sort decided to do almost everything impromptu. My mother had reservations about me landing in New York without so much as a room booked. Travel plans to DC, Maryland and California were hatched up overnight. My final week in back on the eastern seaboard was completely action packed and yet I didn't really make any concrete plans. And whatever plans I made all pretty much fell through. I suppose it gave me a new sense of adventure. I could hardly sleep on the flight back, even though I had a whole row to myself, retracing my steps in the back of my mind.
I have all this internal gratitude and yet I don't know who to thank. Well, God for starters, then my parents, my family, my friends, my teachers, my colleagues, my acquaintances, the man on the street... I have been given a reason to greet each day with a smile and I intend to do so. I also have this burning desire to share my experiences with fresh and young minds. It's a desire to go back to Zimbabwe and attach myself for some really insignificant school. (Yep, once a teacher always a teacher!) It's a desire to share a dream with the hope of allowing other people to dream.
