Life’s little pleasures: listening to Final Fantasy piano collections and just lying on the couch. No matter what the mood they just make you so calm. I remember from the age of about seven upwards, if I ever couldn’t sleep I’d get my mp3 (or most likely Walkman in those days) and just listen and within minutes I’d drift off. I remember asking for the Aeris Theme Music Box, I wanted it so desperately. A music box is one of those weird little things without any real purpose but I don’t know, it’s just something I’ve always wanted – even now. However back then they were super rare and about £4000 and mum and dad felt beanie babies would suffice.
Final Fantasy music is also one of the reasons I started playing keyboard, and I regret not pursuing that. But I guess thats the beauty of regretting stuff - it pushes you to do something, and there’s still plenty of time to learn properly.
Though I will have less time soon. I finally managed to get a job. I’ll be working as a PCT assistant under a HR Manager for the NHS for the next few months, and then come September, assuming all goes well, be a Psychology Assistant. It’s exciting, I'd sort of got to a point where I was giving up hope on a career I'd enjoy and just settling for, well, anything. But it'll be good for me too, aside from the obvious like money and giving me something to do; it’ll help me appreciate free time better. Student life isn’t the best for doing that.
Anyway I’ve wrote a lot of blogs recently so I’ll keep this one short, plus I’m going to have an early night – I start my training tomorrow and the music is making me sleepy. Sweet dreams.
