So... I have news.

Just a small update for you all, a few posts ago I wrote about how I went to an open day at City University of London. After a few weeks of thinking I threw caution to the wind and applied. When I sent off my application I really didn't expect to get anything from it, I just didn't want to regret not going for it. I'm so glad that I did as I got an interview which I went to a few weeks ago!

The interview day was so much fun! I tackled all of my transport nervousness, even in rush hour, to get there which was an achievement in itself. Then throughout the day I spoke to experienced journalists, I got to go out and find a story in London and write a pitch for it and we were given so many more tasks that challenged me. I had such a great day but with limited spaces I was just grateful to have this interview experience to take with me next time I applied for something. They said they would let me know a few days after and... I GOT IT!!

I am studying a masters next year (if I get a 2:1 in my current degree). This could mean getting a job in London later in my career. So many amazing journalists attended this University and that could be me one day. I wouldnt have believed at 14, when I wrote me first article was published, that I would be here. I cannot wait to start my future!

30 things I want to do before I'm 30

Hi lovelies! I'm turning 18 soon and thought it would be a good idea to write this post and then come back to it when I turn 30 and see if I could tick all of the thing off of the list! Having a check list for me means that I'm more obligated to go ahead with my ideas rather than pushing them to the back of my mind and backing it of them. SO here we go! 30: Have a spontaneous holiday. Go to the airport and just get a plane. I think this would be so much fun! 29: Fall in love. I know very cheesy but if I haven't fallen in love by the time I'm 30 I may as well be Bridget Jones; become a spinster and be eaten by wild Alsatians. If you've seen the film you'd get that reference! 28: Be in a job I love! Listen up future me if you aren't in a job you love leave it now and get one you do! There's no point in working somewhere that doesn't motivate you to get up every morning. 27: Had the courage to start up Youtube again. I posted some videos last year...

Let's talk about sex!

Hello lovelies! I would like to start by saying thank you for the great response I've received about last weeks post! So many people have contacted me through social media and people in my year at school have said that it was helpful and relatable so thank you! Now as you can probably tell from the title this weeks post is going to be surrounding the subject of sex. Yep, sex. That dreaded word. For some people the topic is easily approachable and they have no problem with communicating their feelings about it. However some find it a taboo subject and it's difficult to convey what they want to say without being judged. This is what I want to talk about this week; to begin a discussion about sex and the pressures that it brings to young people. For me personally it's not the people I interact with sexually that pressure me, I feel pressure from social expectation. I got to the age of around 14/15 and people in my year at school started to experience it and I started to qu...
