Last year my spirit of adventure was kicked off by my holiday to Oban and my return to ice skating. Since then it has been rather derailed by having to focus on my clinical hours and final placement report, but now that is all done, my inner adventuress is tugging at my mind once more.
You might recall I was considering learning how to fly and once again my mind is turning in that direction. So today I have contacted the flying school to see if I can pre-book a session with them. I don't know how busy they are, but I do know that it is something I would like to do this autumn.
As I don't plan on going to the Highlands this year, I want to have other fun stuff to look forward to. That is why I bought myself a ticket to see Ant Middleton. I can't wait for that and I am so much looking forward to hearing him speak. But I also want to do something a bit more adventurous myself. It's one thing listening to an adventurer speak, it's quite another to go on an adventure yourself, and that's what I really want to do. I see Ant as my warm up act, to get me in the mood and make me feel like I can do whatever I set my mind to.
So if all goes to plan, I have decided that I am going to book a taster flying lesson for on my birthday this November and I'm hoping to have it all booked in and paid for by the end of next week - that way I can't chicken out! I know I will be scared, but that is half the fun of it and I can't think of a more adventurous way to spend my birthday. Mid-November might not be the best time for a first flying lesson, but it will be a birthday I never forget!
I feel as if I have waited long enough. It is time to take matters into my own hands, to take control of the dream and put some solid plans into place. So now I have six months to psyche myself up for it and talk myself into it, as a reality, rather than a pipe-dream. It's time to cross this thing off my bucket list and hope that I don't kick the bucket in the process! Because life's a witch, and then you fly!
