Month: January 2022
Personal Development
In my second year of my course, I did a module all about personal and professional development. At the time, I thought it was a waste of time, I won’t lie. But having completed the module, I can see how valuable it really was. I […]
Labels: the good, the bad and the ugly
I hate labels with a vengeance. Why do people have to be categorized and put into boxes? We are all individuals with unique qualities. One size certainly does not fit all. I am who I am, not a clone, lookalike or doppelganger. Call me by […]
I’ll Do It Later…
I don’t know about you, but I am the worst procrastinator! I have gotten slightly better at getting on with my work through my years at university, but honestly, it’s not because I’ve learned to, I’ve just been forced to. My workload, especially now I’m […]
Too hot to handle?

Resolutions for the new year
This year must be different from the others. I have had this thought as has everybody else, but everyone has various reasons (except the common one about Covid-19). As I tend to put too much at stake, my first resolution is not to exaggerate because […]
Post Christmas Catch-up
I thought I’d take this blog post to catch you all up with what I’m up to now Christmas is over. I say Christmas is over, it wasn’t really over until New Year for me! Having divorced parents means Christmas is always prolonged for me. […]
