A LETTER TO MY 16 YEAR OLD SELF

I've realised recently how fast time really goes by....I am going to be 20 next year....TWENTY. A fully fledged adult, kind of. GCSE results was today and I literally cannot believe that it's been 3 YEARS since I left high school.
I can't even believe that I'm already going into my second year at university (still broke as fuck so no different there), but what's weird is looking back at yourself a few years ago, even just last year or a few months ago.
Thinking back to how I was when I was 16 is weird to me. I was so different, had such different outlooks on life and surprisingly a lot of different friends back then, which partly I am very glad about.
I decided to write a letter to my 16 year old self, all the advice I would give younger me...trust me, I needed it.

RESULTS DAY 2016 - IT DOES NOT DEFINE YOU

Results day comes around every year whether we like it or not. It can literally be the best day of the summer or the worst, and what's so shit is that 99% of the time we don't know how it's going to pan out at all.

The saddest thing to see is that so many people don't receive the results they dreamed of, after all that hard work and stress. It's even worse that generation by generation, there is an increasing pressure to do well in education...and that we are taught that our results define us as people.

Congratulations to everyone who either passed their first year of college or got into university, but if you didn't come out with the results you wanted, this blog post is for you.

TIPS FOR FRESHERS WEEK

Hello! This blog post goes out to anyone who is about to become a fresher at university. For those of you that don't know, freshers week to put it quite bluntly is a week for you all to settle in...to go out and get smashed.

I get that some of you may not enjoy stuff like drinking, but it's pretty much a right of passage that most new university students go through. It's a great way to make new friends and create loads of memories. I'd love to say that I remember my freshers week, but sadly I do not. Mistake number one on my part, obviously. 

I like to think that you could all learn from me in some way, or at least listen to my advice, even if you don't actually follow it. So, without further ado here is a list of tips you need to know for freshers week.

A TRIP ABROAD - VERONA AND VENICE

Hey everyone! A while ago I did a photography post about my holiday, and I included some snaps from Paris and Salo. I feel like these photos are even better. During our trip to Italy, we went to Verona and Venice. Both cities were absolutely breathtaking, but by far I loved Venice the most. It's absolutely insane. I just can't seem to believe that there are absolutely no roads or cars!

Anyway, I hope you enjoy looking at some of my photos, let me know what you think!!

RANT- SNAPCHATTING AND DRIVING

Hello everyone! I'm finally back; we had no internet at home for so long so the only time I could get it was at work...I've been dying!

While I was at work I was obviously checking all my social media to see what I missed, and Snapchat was something I checked a lot. Everyone loves snapchat right? Seeing what everyone is up to and what's going on.

One thing however that I did see a lot of was people snapchatting and driving. It drives me INSANE. Here's a short blog post about what I think of people who snapchat and drive...
