Bloggish

Hello!

So this is my millionth attempt to upkeep a blog. I really am useless at them. Hopefully though I might be able to keep it up this time!

Ok, so a bit about me. I am currently 21 years old and a student Paramedic. In the past I have done a number of things including waitressing, working in a warehouse and home care. I've always wanted to work in health care but for years I wasn't really sure what as. When I got to my A levels I realised I didn't have the dedication to my school work at the time to get the grades to be a doctor so that was out of the question. I had always loved first aid and the idea of being the first on scene helping someone. One day when looking through the UCAS course list I came across undergraduate Paramedic courses. That was it. From then on I wanted nothing else but to be a Paramedic. Roll down the line a few years (including ups, downs and numerous mistakes) and I finally got on a Paramedic course. I'm now currently in my first year of study and so far I love it. There is still a long way to go though before I can officially call myself a Paramedic.

Anyway it's coming up to Christmas and as such I've been thinking about what I want to achieve in the New Year. I know, new years resolutions. No-one ever keeps them right? This time I really hope that doesn't happen. My current plans for the new year are to loose weight and gain strength. As such from just after Christmas I will be going on a diet and I'm joining a gym so that I can start doing free weights. I have always wanted to do weights but been nervous about looking like an idiot with no idea what I'm doing. The gym I'm joining is open 24 hours so I can go when no-one else is there!

On this blog I'm going to try and record my weight losses and strength gains. I might also put some other stuff up on here as well.

Talk soon!
