Post Number Three
Has anyone ever read 'P.S. I Love You' by Cecilia Ahern? Its a really cute story about a woman that recieves notes from her (now deceased) husband that he wrote while dying of cancer. The notes come with little gifts and words of encouragement (can you guess how each note finishes based on the title? I know that's a toughie ...) that help her ease into living without the man she deeply loved. I really enjoyed the book and it has inspired me. Now nothing against Cecilia - I love all her books, but its really obvious that she is just starting out as a writer. The thing is, she has fabulous ideas. So I'm sitting here thinking I'm not a bad writer, you know - I enjoy the whole 'writing' thing; I'm anal about grammar and have good spelling skills. The only place I'm lacking is the idea department. So a call to all out there - if you have a nifty idea that can be transformed into a novel that will earn me a few quid, pass it on or write it yourself!
I'm also thinking about going back to school. I have been talking about doing my masters since I finished my BSc but it just didn't really suit. I was SO excited to get out of school at the time. Fast forward 2 years and I'm getting itchy fingers that are just aching to write an essay. There's a MSc in Pharmaceutical Manufacturing Technology that is available through Trinity College Dublin (one of the most beautiful Universities I've ever seen). At the end of it I'll be considered a 'Qualified Person' (someone else is having problems in the idea department) which is a qualification recognized in the pharmaceutical industry worldwide. A pretty hefty role too. Now I can do it distance over 2 years and my place of work will pay for the cost of the study. The catch is that I need to stay for 2 years after the study is finished. Any suggestions?

So, does this mean you will be there for 4 more years or only 2?In either case Jen, it just means that you will have to go without seeing the flames kick te crap out of the canucks for at least two more years. And I dont know if you have heard, but Luke and I are going to Seattle, Washington for the Seahawks-Vikings game on October 22 this year. Isnt that wicked! I am so stoked. It will be good times. Anyways, save me a spot sometime in march because I am going to head over around that time. Anyways, you best get back to shaving your back hair while I get back to work. Love (your favorite brother) Christopher
