Minding what gap?

The Gap is the in-between bits of life, the waiting times between the end of one adventure and the start of the next one. Minding the Gap is a chronicle of the current Gap I'm facing: the six month long wait between finishing an undergraduate degree in 'Literature and History' and heading off for a year-long working trip to Canada. It's about the mundane and essential parts of life, which we all occasionally need in order to learn and/or earn enough for the next stage. 

My Gap will be spent:

1. Readjusting to living back in the family home for the first time in three years
2. Getting the knack of the blogging thing in time for the Canadian adventure (when I actually have something to write about)
3. Earning and saving the necessary amount of money to survive the aforementioned migration
4. Working out how to have a fun summer in London in spite of the weather, Olympics and lack of cash

Gaps aren’t always empty spaces like the gap between the train and the platform; hopefully this one will be more like a gap through a hedge between two gardens, and maybe I’ll even find some berries in it.
