I'm Back!

Hello Everyone!


I'm back, finally! It's been long enough and I hope you're all well. How nice has the weather been lately, talk about 'summer has arrived'- Woah it's been hot!

Anyway that's enough of that small chit-chat with you, here's the real reason I haven't posted on here in so long. Let’s face it, work, college, exams.... has kind of taken over my life a tad, but I am, as of yesterday, FREE (from college and exams, anyway) forever. Bring on University in exactly 3 months and 5days- wow what a lengthy break :/ I spent the last month revising for my final A Level exams, which determine whether I can attend Uni or not, they took over everything so it felt amazing to throw out all of my notes from the year as I will never need them again (especially ICT). 

ALSO, BREAKING NEWS; I have started to drive again! 7 months after passing my test, have finally saved up enough money to be put down as a named driver on my dad’s insurance. Wooo, freedom really is here! :D Fro yo runs, drive thru's, road trips and blaring summer 'tunes' all the fun of being able to drive! 


This was just a small little update post to let you all know what I have been up to and why I have been so bad at slacking on here lately! Once again I am very sorry; my next post won't have such a long space inbetween. I promise! I would love to hear about any of your life updates, what awesome things have been going on recently.

Great things come to those who wait....

18 years to be precise! 
Since I turned 16 two very long years ago, I tried so hard to get a little part time job to fit in with my college work. I applied for so many jobs, I spent hours filing out application forms (when it probably should've taken 15/20 minutes each! Whoopsie) with no reply, how rude! :/ But finally September 2013 came along and I had an interview at Primark (my first ever!) which went well! Within a week I found out I'd got the job, had my induction and completed my first 4 hour shift! Finally things were going my way and that wasn't the end of the great things....
Also in the same month (splendid September I'll call it!) my sister won two tickets to see the Arctic Monkeys at the iTunes festival! We had about a week to prepare for this amazing night of awesome music, this included persuading my dad to let us go as it was a week day and trying to scrape together money to get a train and tube ticket. I can honestly say that The Arctic Monkeys are one of the best live bands around, they sung a mixture of their old hits and a few from their recently released album. I'd love to see them live again, they're worth every penny you spend!

So this splendid September carried on to my birthday, the big one! My 18th was finally here, much to my parents surprise and shock at how fast the years have gone by (wasn't it just the best 18 years of your lives..mum? Dad?) For this milestone age my dad bought me a DSLR camera, a big professional camera for those who talk photography aha Incase you ask I have no clue what DSLR stands for, which is good as I got a B in my photography AS level ahaha. Anyway back to the camera, my beautiful baby, I fell in love when I first got it and started experimenting with all the buttons. I have already received a request from a friend whose prom will be next July to photograph her and her friends together, just call me your own personal photographer for any events! ;) aha



So to end this uber long blog post, sorry for that! (Thanks for reading though, aha) I will just talk about ending a splendid September on a very good note by finding out I am now going to be working Saturdays for 4 hours as well as Sundays for 4 hours. This means more money for me to buy things with.... Hmmm I kind of hate spending my own money! :/ 
This blog post is brought to you through my blogger app on my newly purchased iPhone, oooo get me! Thank you so much again for reading this! If you liked this or didn't please leave me some feedback below, or maybe if you have a suggestion for future posts! :)

First Blog Post...... :/

Hello everyone, and welcome to my new blog......

After writing a blog to record my coursework progression in my first year of AS media, I decided that I would create one of my own as I enjoyed it! It was a shock at first, writing a blog, you're sharing your thoughts and feelings with anyone who is kind enough to read it. You 'should' write a blog post at least every week to tell others of an exciting event that has happened....this will be a struggle for me, trying to remember to write a new post aha ;) 


I have thought about writing a blog for a while now, but I guess i've been too busy or even too scared. But here goes....I thought I would start tonight, on a very boring college night. This blog is a way of expressing myself and getting my work out there for people to read, which I will be VERY grateful for, but ultimately I am writing this as a way of assisting my university application as I would love to go into journalism :D My blog posts will be about all things life related, like things that have happened to me recently or my interests; fashion, photography, music and cooking.


Ok, so that is the end of my very first, rather boring blog! You got to know a bit about why I am doing this and I just hope I haven't scared off people from ever reading this again... it can only get better!
