The 1st of September

Hey, I'm just stopping by to drop a line on this extraordinary 1st of September. The first 9/1 in the past 16 years that was nothing but an ordinary working day for me. The daily travel news, another marketing campaign, loads of emails.. No first lectures of the year, no professors, no college books. School's over! - It arrived to me today when I found myself thinking whether sitting there in the office was actually more fun than meeting my friends on the first school day after holidays. Needless to say, the answer was no :) So I met them up for a drink later in the evening to celebrate the start of a new school year that we did not start, and the start of a whole new experience. It feels really good to take a year off and go travelling, because the job can wait and so does everything else, including the MBA. And even though I'm sure we'll be back in the class in a few years time, for now the only course I'm motivated to attend is the Surf Lesson ;) Yes, yes.. Oh! I'm off to bed now! One of my girlfriends is getting married tomorrow. Yep, another one! That makes 2 weddings in 3 weeks. Looks like we are running out of singles - and that's really a shocking news! :)
