Today has been rather busy, what between my dreadful interview at Roka which really, truly is stunning. (Amateur mistake of being late..) and helping my mum out with her settlement case. It has glass surrounding all sides, which can be opened from top to bottom creating this open-plan alfresco dining with the outside. A stunning part of London I never even ventured into. God I love it.
I've also went to a BP Discovery day yesterday on Wells. Very, very interesting and highly recommended. I've always felt I've had no sort of direction, no aim since I started my degree. It picks at all my weak points and forces me to work with them instead of playing to my strengths. But I truly, truly see something interesting now that I think I'll really enjoy. I'm determined to pick up my grades next year and get onto one of their internships/challenge course. 1 month on with lots of danger, 1 month off to travel - sounds like a dream, and every person I met working there was so lovely. I did feel like some of the other people I was with weren't that receptive to me though, maybe slightly cold. Which always makes me feel down. But I met this guy (Chinese, of course) from Cambridge doing general engineering who was really cool, and also 3 other people from my year I'd hardly talked to before.
The world is so small.
Your last post makes me a little annoyed. At 'Fluffy'. first off - honestly, who calls themselves that, it's a bit too try hard to be cute isn't it? Okay that was mean. I'm just annoyed because she struck a nerve..
On the one hand I think 'Who is she to meddle and stick her nose into what is between us', on the other, I know she is just being a good friend and doing what I would do. It's funny, if I wasn't involved, I would probably give the same advice. But I don't think you necessarily need that much common ground for a relationship to work. I think it's much more about chemistry, communication and being able to take an interest in each other's interests. I'm not saying that I like everything you like - gosh no, I have to be true to myself - but it is good to open your eyes to different things.
Plus, I always think it is much more about being in sync with regards to giving and taking.
I believe in the end, it's about knowing what the other person needs, and being able to give that to them emotionally when they need it. And vice versa. It's not always about interests.
A simple example is - if it was, why then are you not with Fluffy?
Answer: Interests change.
