End of University

So, as I have literally just submitted my last assignment, I have mixed emotions that I am no longer a student!


If someone asked me if I could go back and do it all again, I really don't know what I would say. I've loved the experiences, I have an amazing cv with work experiences, I've being able to produce and progress through some things like a charity showcase, I've visited Romania and got to see how they work their businesses over there, it has just being incredible. BUT, and a big BUT, the work was so long winded and stressful and I could probably create my own river with the amount I have cried from it.

It's finally done though, now I just need to wait to get my scores back (I passed my dissertation, wooo!) and then on to graduation and my future. Scary, I know. But at least I'll have a lot more time to blog now!

Barcelona☀️

As I've said before, I happened to be lucky enough to spend my 21st birthday in Barcelona!☀️☀️

Me and my friend were staying in Costa Brava - Calella which is about an hour away from Barcelona on the train. The train was €10 each for a return ticket which you seriously can't complain about. We got off to the train and of course, Burger King.. with us both being fussy eaters, it was easier than trying to Spanish cuisine even though I know I like the majority of it wth my grandparents living in Spain for 7 years when I was younger.

We walked all the way down La Ramba, went into some street market thing which was pretty cool and then came to the moving statues. I think I seemed to make a good friend that day, he didn't want me to leave him after we'd had a cute selfie together.

We then found the docks and found boat tours which were €15 each for a tour around the harbour, we got to see a Spanish navy ship and the full docks where all the ferries were and thought we was going to drown with how rocky the waves were D:!

After finally getting back on solid and dry land (kissing the ground as we got back to it), we decided to try and find the Sagrada Familia which we figured out was about an hours walk away so after finding the Arco de Triomf we found a bike hire just at the side of it which was €5 each for two hours! We whizzed round Barcelona and found the Sagrada Familia but it was hard to take pictures as bikes aren't aloud on the paths. We rode under the Arco de Triomf and around the park behind it and found a gorgeous water fountain there.

It was actually an amazing feeling just being able to feel the cool breeze as well a step getting sunburnt but being able to see all the tourist areas all at the same time.

I would definitely return but I'd probably take my Mum or boyfriend who love that type of thing too.

After we returned the bikes, we did what any normal 21 year old Birthday girl would do, got an alcoholic beverage and returned to our hotel to hit the Calella town🎉🎉

May Update!

Ok, so it turns out all these stories about having a terrible time when your soldier gets deployed are true..
I completely messed up one of my assignments, I had a horrible time on holiday, a close family member died on my 21st so I have a funeral coming up and my body has had a complete meltdown and he's only been gone a few weeks D:..



But on the plus side, as much as he misses me, he got to have the amazing experience of horse riding on the rockies which I'm so jealous of! And apparently, his exercise finishes a few days earlier than it's supposed to, so I could have him home in just under a month! But, it's the army, so I'll try not to get my hopes up too much.

As much as I promised myself I would blog a lot more, I've had my dissertation to finish (it's finally handed in!!!) and other assignments, my holiday, my birthday, life, etc. But as soon as I have finished university, I'm definitely going to try and get into blogging properly, well hopefully.

I also got series five and six of Game of Thrones and all of the Harry Potter books for my birthday so I may be slightly occupied for a while but I will try and definitely keep you updated with deployment for any possible readers out there :)
