Thor needs to learn how to make more subtle entrances

[justaheadintheclouds]

I haven't posted in a while. Things have been up, down, rapid and in some places slow. One of my web projects, the microbiology blog has been put on the back shelf, simply because I don't have enough time. I am learning that my ambitions can be just as much of a curse as they are a gift, if they are left to run wild and consume my mind with unrealistic expectations that is. So baby steps. I am working hard on my other blog thegeekbubble.com however, a preview for which is above. My professional and personal life is changing in ways I could have never predicted. Before moving to oxford I was convinced that I was happy and sound in the person I had become, but what ignorance, because I am learning more and more about myself as the days roll by. The unpredictable nature of life can be devastating for those who depend upon their dreams, but if you can learn to live free and be guided by your dreams rather than controlled by them, you can achieve true happiness. This is what I am learning.

On a lighter note, I went to a restaurant called Atomic Pizza not too long ago. Greatest place on earth. No joke, it is a restaurant made by geeks for geeks. Go there. http://atomicpizzas.co.uk/

Thought of You - by Ryan Woodward

"Lets say theres a bunch of people on a ship and theres bunch of holes in the ship and we're quite good at bailing water out of our section and we've invented this nice bucket. It'll be foolish of us not to share that bucket design. Because if the ship goes down, we're going with it"

Elon Musk. This man inspires me.

What a wonderful tribute

Thank you for everything Robin Williams - Imgur

The most viral images on the internet, curated in real time by a dedicated community through commenting, voting and sharing.

With the passing of Robin Williams one of the most touching sentiments has been the stories about him shared online, so I made a small collection of them to read. Thank you for everything Mr Williams, you will be greatly missed.

"The loneliest people are the kindest.

The saddest people smile the brightest.

All because they do not wish to see

anyone suffer the way they do."

Thank you for everything Robin, words cannot describe how much we'll miss you.

I haven't posted anything all week, its been a crazy one. I started a new job and I've met so many new people, not to mention exploring my new home of Oxford. Anyways, I felt like uploading some of my favourite pictures. I'm also making a pledge to take my camera with me everyday so I can capture more shots of the photogenic city I currently find myself in.
