it's the end of an era

commandercool [Edit] [Delete] 12 replies 08:37, 4 August '06

today i finish work after 18 months of being here to begin packing up and moving to korea at the end of the month. i'm scared but the overriding feeling is excitement.

i can't think of too many enjoyable times i've had whilst working here and i'm really looking forward to stretching myself and facing a challenge for the first time in a long while.

for other reasons too, today seems like a big turning point, when my life's going to change for better or for worse.

i'm sure there's a blog that i should have put this on but DiS has been such a big part of my life in the last year and a half, it felt right to put it here.

i'm not sure how often i'll be posting after today but after a couple of days i'll probably get withdrawal symptoms and be back on. when i get to korea i hope to have internet in my apartment so i'll be still around too (albeit 9 hours ahead of you guys...).

anyway. sorry this is massively long. here's to the future. x

  • Here's to you James.

    Happy Birthday!

    Now go make that speech to your work colleagues, replacing 'DiS' with 'your collective face'.

      I really really hope it all goes well.

      Does this mean Leeds's premier Weezer tribute band is on hiatus now though?
