My Route to Dentistry

My professional background had been in technical IT sales. It paid very, very well and I was good at it, however, in order to be as successful as I was, I found myself giving up evenings and weekends and devoting too much of my time and attention to my job, neglecting, amongst other things, my girlfriend. So I decided to retrain and go down another path in hope of a better work/life balance.

Hello.

I'm Funk.

I am 26 years old and from Birmingham. I have recently won a place at Newcastle University to study dentistry and plan to blog my way through the next 5 years to chronicle my experiences as a mature student.

This is meant only to be a record of my journey through uni but if I am able to inspire, amuse, help or advise or, at the very least, entertain any readers, that would be great too.

I will be back with my first real post very soon!
