Hello Lovelies!

So two weeks ago I finally started college! Over the next two years I will by studying Creative Writing, Geography, English Language and Media Studies. I'm studying these because I believe that they will help me get into a career in journalism. There was actually a Journalism A Level available which I decided not to take right now put may pick up in my second year. This means that I could end up with a total of five A Levels rather than four or even less!

To get to college, it normally takes me between fourty minutes to an hour to get there. Now, I know what you're all thinking 'Katie, why didn't you stay at your school's sixth form if it's closer?' Well, that's because two of the courses (geography and media) I wanted to do clashed so, I would have to choose one or the other, which I really didn't want to do! That's one of the main reasons as to why I chose to go to college rather than stay at school. Being at college has also given me a chance to get to know some new people which is great! A lot of the people I actually went to junior school with go to my college so its enabled me to catch up with them too! I'm not forgetting about those who stayed at sixth form though, I'm trying to see them all on a regular basis.

At college I'm finding that I'm engaging much more in lessons than I did at GCSE level. This is probably because I'm now doing all lessons that I enjoy rather than ones that I don't. I'm focusing in class more than I ever have!

Hello Lovelies!

It feels like so long since I've sat down wrote a half-decent blog post! I've been so busy these past few weeks it's unreal. Here is a little breakdown of what has been going on in my life recently...

So, a few weeks back my family and I took a quick trip up north to Liverpool for a weekend away before work and school went back into full-swing again. We stayed there for three days and did plenty enough during our visit. We did all the tourist-y things like the Beatles tour and took a ferry across the mersey. The Beatles tour was brilliant and it was just so interesting to find out more about all of theirs lives before they became such a huge band. We saw a few of there houses and schools and even went into the Cavern which was amazing! It's tiny inside and way way underground! Also, outside the Cavern is a wall full of artists' names who have preformed there! Bands ranged from the Arctic Monkeys to Jessie J and Elton John. I could've spent hours just looking at it reading all the names engraved in the bricks.
