3 years

I've got a discretionary leave to remain and work here! it is not a permanent one but I guess with taking so much time off 9-8 years ago being sick it is fair. My love affair with UK continues but it will not take me another 3 years to settle here. In my heart however I am fully settled and love this country with all its rain, drafts and humidity but also with fantastic science community and opportunities. Being allowed to do what you love the most is what counts in the end ;)

Old and New

I have finally submitted my thesis (well a month ago now) with the viva set in December I finally have time to look for jobs, knit and simply relax. So nice not to be at work for up to 18hrs a day.

Here are some of my old and new favorites

Hair, face and nail care

Make up: new mascara and prep mascara from MAC in detail

New Year resolutions

This year resolutions are same as last year:
1. keep loosing more weight and get fitter
2. not work too much, try 9-7 with weekends off
3. work to the schedule, not random hours, in the end I get too tired and loose productivity
4. find more motivation to get out and train more often

New ones:
5. run my first half-marathon in March
6. train enough to start marathon distances
7. improve sleeping pattern (probably through more counselling)

I will also try to post much more often and not just on knitting but also on my running training
