New Stars Shine

Update Hello again, I know it has been a century since I posted on here, I have been in a whirlwind of lifestyle changes that have caused me to lose priority for something I genuinely enjoy; writing. I decided to pick this back up as a form of procrastination against what I should be doing (which is technically working, but I am procrastinating against that with doing university dissertation work).  Lots have happened. A short but quick update; University of Brighton (the SU specifically) have plugged a fee onto societies, making my Youth Stop Aids emerging society fall flat on its face. I have decided to preoccupy myself with local communities rather than the University and direct my efforts to something that matters and doesn't cost a fee. With that in mind, I did manage to leave the society winning the established 'Society of the Year' award... which is ironic considering they then shut us down. I am continuing to work part-time as a sub-par reservationi...

Goooood day everyone! The equivalent to my purse! So my post today relates to everybody who works a job and also can't budget! Where is gets so close to payday yet it just isn't there, so you end up pulling apart the sofa for that 20p you lost when you were rich! The worst part of monthly pay is that you keep working and you think you'll be rich, then by the time rent and bills and direct debits go out...well...you are left with enough to buy a big bag of pasta and the cycle starts again. Since I've lived in Brighton I have had these 'financial blues', and have also come up with ways to budget your money so you still have some left for the holiday fund. My little treat yesterday! I love pretty things, more than this I LOVE expensive things! My biggest shop-a-holic store is Anthropologie. Expensive...very expensive. Not to mention I love Waitrose for my food shop, and can only purchase organic, free-ranged items. I love socialising, going for drinks...

Hello guys! I have started a very new and scary adventure today, a few days ago I got a call from a marketing company interested in my C.V. I went for an interview, then a second interview, and then I got a job! More of a career than a job I hope, it should be a huge opportunity for me to develop my skills, considering I don’t think University is for me. This job means I can put my skills into use, my crazy O.C.D organisation skills, my leadership training and my badass confidence that I am rocking nowadays. I am nervous though, even though my current job doesn’t pay much, I will 100% miss the family I grew to love there.  But I know I need to be strong, I need to go in fighting and not let the spark die. I hope this is a career for me and not just another 6 month stint in my growing C.V of endless jobs.  This is the joy of a gap year, for all of you who aren’t sure what your plans are, a gap year can help you so much, do a bit of travelling then try out different j...
