A few pictures from the last year.
2013 was a bit of a mixed year for me. It was a year of 'endings'
really. For a start there was the
stress of uni. In April dissertation deadlines were looming and the stress of
final exams and assignments was mounting.
Although there were a few stressful moments, my time at university
was a great one. I made the choice to move away from home for 3 years, to a
place where I knew absolutely no one and had never been before; looking back
now I'm not sure how I had the courage. I don't really remember thinking too
much about the scary aspects and just focused on the amazing and new
opportunities I'd have and I am so glad I did. Even though there were a few ups
and downs I did have a great 3 years in Nottingham. I don't think I'll ever
forget the friends I made along the way and the adventures I had with them. The
first time it actually sunk in that I was moving to a place all on my own, was
in the car on my way to move into halls and by then it was too late, I had to
jump into the deep end.
So university came to an
end in July and I move back home with my parents, now that was a transition. It
was quite hard at first adjusting to life back at home and not having the same
freedom I had living in Nottingham. At this point I felt like I was in a world
of limbo, not too sure where I wanted to go in life and having the pressure to
decide and make the right decision. I have to admit I found this quite a hard
thing to deal with. Although I now feel like I have things more under control
and have more of a direction of where I want to go.
I hope that 2014 is a better year, filled with new
and exciting opportunities. I haven't made any new year’s resolutions as such
but I do have a few goals and things I'd like to happen this year:
1. Be and feel more positive
2. Put myself out there more - Just say yes!
3. Put a foot on the career ladder
4. Travel more
Thanks for reading :)
