On Work Experience

Happy Hump Day, guys! This week I'm working with a Communications firm to gain some work experience before starting my course. I just wanted to share my personal opinion on work experience as well as outlining some of the things you learn whilst on the job. I wish that my motto was 'think less do more' and I'm trying to live that way more and more by actively engaging in the careers that I might like to pursue in order to make informed decisions, amongst other decisions I'll need to make fairly soon.

#MondayMemories // Lanzarote Holiday

(Casa Lola: Our Lanzarote Villa)

Welcome back to #MondayMemories and another opportunity to remember a fantastic experience! Today's memory is my very first girls' holiday, which happened just over a month ago. Myself and some friends from uni spent a few days in Lanzarote in celebration of completing our degrees, here are some photos!

Review: We Are All Completely Beside Ourselves by Karen Joy Fowler

After studying for an English degree for the past three years you'd think that I would be bored of reading. However, since completing my degree, I have been trying to make an active effort to carry on reading as much as possible. I chose my degree because I love reading, a lifelong hobby that I don't think will ever leave me. This is the most recent book that I have finished: We Are All Completely Beside Ourselves by Karen Joy Fowler.

#MondayMemories

So rather than the usual #MondayMotivation or #throwbackthursday, I want to offer up my own version in the form of #MondayMemories. 

I want to start attempting to document so many of the amazing memories that I have had during my time as an undergraduate and before I moved away from home. I find it so easy to forget some of the amazing opportunities I have had, especially when I'm struggling or worrying. By sharing those memories here I'm hoping it will remind me to be grateful and content with what I have. 

Without further ado, for my very first #MondayMemories, I would like to share photos from my graduation day last week. The weather was overcast and, yes, it rained all morning but, y'know, I made it. I completed my degree. I got to share the day with my family and with some of my closest friends who were graduating too, all of whom I am super proud of.
