Announcement

I have decided to make some changes to my blog. A while ago a read an article (I can't remember where) about how to have a successful blog that will attract readers. One of the suggestions was that your blog should centre around a particular theme or topic, for example, fashion or photography rather than it just be a place where you write about your life as people may find this boring and it makes your blog less accessible on search engines.

I have been doing some soul-searching lately and I have realised that I have been through so much in my life. And each new experience, whether it be negative or positive, teaches me a new lesson. This may sound very cliche, but I am slowly realising that there is truth in the phrase "everything happens for a reason".

It has always irritated me when people have said that to me as a means of consoling me whilst I am going through something. At the time, it is very difficult to believe that this terrible thing that you are going through is actually meant to teach you some sort of important life lesson. But I find that once the storm has passed, I tend to look back in retrospect and realise what I learned (or was meant to learn) from that situation/experienced.

The point that I am trying to make is that I have learned many hard lessons in my lifetime. And whilst I do believe that you should learn your own lessons, it is helpful (and saves time) to learn from other people's mistakes and triumphs too. And so I am re-purpossing my blog as more of a place where I can share advice and suggestions with others. So stick around...

So much of work...

These are my files from this year so far from Classical Civilisation (blue), Art History (green) and Drama (pink). And we're only halfway through the academc year...I think I'm going to need new files...

Guess Who's Back

So I haven't blogged in over 5 months. That's disgusting. Especially since I was blogging so much at one stage and after I promised myself I was gonna keep it up. But like I said in previous posts, this is not the first time I've started a blog and not kept it up.

I was reading a few of my past posts (not that there were very many) and my oh my have I changed. I know I wanted to use this space as place to rant/vent etc. but boy did I used to whine a lot! Gosh! I like to think I've grown since then though. So much has happened since June, life has certainly become really interesting.

I will try post more often and get this thing going again. I only have about 18 days left that I'll actually be in front of my laptop and then I go home for our (nearly) two month Summer Holiday...woohoo!!! We're becoming more American by the day! Once I'm back home I doubt I'll blog very often. But next year is going to be an extremely busy and exciting year. I'll be in third year and will hopefully have gotten into directing. I've also been elected as Head Student for our res next year, and although the work has already started, things are going to get serious next year. Hopefully I won't be so lazy and I'll actually blog a bit. I sorta had a bit of a following for a while there...I doubt anyone reads this now. Thank you to anyone who does though :)

Wishing you all a great November!
