I'm Back!

Hiya Strangers!

I've finally started university! & am officially a student nurse at the University of Northampton!

I started on the 2nd of March (which is also my birthday! & happened to be the day that Bobby started basic training for the army!)

Busy Day!

So now I have finally started training expect a lot of posts about mental health!

I start my first placement in June working with younger people with Dementia.

Should be really interesting.

& on the 5th of June Bobby has his passing out parade (tissues at the ready because I will cry!)

I've already handed in my first assignment and have 2 more due so busy, busy.

Anyway just a short post for now until I get more time

Stay safe

Guess who's back...

Hi Guys!

It's been ages I know so let me catch you up on what been happening since my last post!

I bought a new car!

Yes it kind of looks like a boy racer car but it will do me nicely!

I have named him Pepe La Pew (because lets face it, it looks like a skunk!)

I cannot drive it yet because my logbook still has not arrived sooo, I can't tax him :/

I have been working my butt off at college and placement and get this, my placement have said that, and I quote, I "am the best student that they have ever had"! Arrgghh! Feels so good to be appreciated for all the work I do!

I have an interview at Northampton Uni on the 28th so am really excited about that! I have also finished my student finance so now it's the waiting game!

I have been working non-stop with one of my clients since the other unfortunately went into hospital. :(

I am completely drained!

There has been ALOT of family drama! 

Which hopefully will sort itself out.

I have obviously already said what I needed to the rest is in others hands.

I have been to see my family this weekend which was so nice!

I know that my little sister is taking the 'drama' hard so spending time with her and my little brother was exactly what was needed. Huge cuddles were had!

I've spent loads of time with Bobby which has been lovely! 

I only came back today so I will have to get used to sleeping alone again :/

Oh and my tyre blew up on the home!

Mortified!

Well I think that's about it.

Hope your all well!

Stay Safe

Lists, lists we all love lists!

Hi Guys!

So I've decided to make a list of my personal achievements in life, thus far. This post really made me think about the things in life that I view as important to me so here we go. 

Totally miss my red hair :(

1. I made it out of secondary school alive!
2. After a string of bad & pointless relationships I let myself take a chance with someone that was a dear friend to me & it paid off.
3. I got engaged! & am planning our wedding for 2015.
4. I've been in a helicopter.
5. I've been in a submarine.
6. I stopped biting my nails after 15 years.
7. I achieved the highest grade on my case study exam over 3 campuses.
8. I've been indoor sky diving.
9. I passed my level 2 in childcare and education at an A grade.
10. Every time I get an A on assignments, my mum gets me cake. (This is an achievement, I love cake).
11. I got a conditional offer from Northampton to do Psychology without attending any kind of interview!
12. I'm going to Italy for the summer to work as an au pair! (So excited!)
13. I passed my driving test & now own a car.
14. The job that I have now is the first job that I got for myself, well without having a mutual friend with the employer anyway.
15. I went topless on a beach. (Big deal for me, not body confident!)
16. I started this blog just after Christmas and am still posting.
17. I have not been pregnant or on benefits in my whole 21 years. Huge achievement considering where I'm from.
18. I'm a credit to my family. This is important to me because family means every thing to me.
19. I was told by my tutor that I write so well that she had to check the whole of my first assignment for plagiarism. That was nice.
20. Even when I had severe depression, I still didn't let it control my life. Pretty proud of that one.
21. & I think it's fitting to end on 21 as I'm going to be 21 in 4 weeks time. I managed to survive 21 years!

How would your list compare?

Stay Safe.
