Oh, how things have changed...
It has been a while seen I wrote any sort of blog post. I think life catches up with you from time to time and you forget to stop and document your daily life. Well now is the time: I couldn't be more enthusiastic about getting this blog back up and running as I march into my degree!
A lot has happened since I was last actively writing about where my life was heading. I am now a fully fledged grown-up... or so I like to think. It almost felt like I was living someone else's life when I moved into University Halls and faced new challenges head-on. Before now, I was comfortably situated in my own little world of creativity. A world that involved sketchbooks, concepts, cameras, and a non-stop time bomb ticking in my head as I approached those scary deadline days. But the truth is, I miss my little hectic college life - the running around to get pages created in time, the endless thoughts of 'what project should I explore next' - the fact is, it gave me a buzz.
It goes without saying that Art at college gave me a platform to understand what it was that I wanted to do and how I was going to go about it. I wanted to explore how I could really understand where my talents are, how I could push my limits, and what would happen when I was thrown in at the deep end into shark-infested waters of A-level qualifications.
College taught me an awful lot of useful life lessons. It taught me that the world can't decide things for you (that includes your experienced and wise-worded teachers), it taught me that a grade doesn't define your worth or talent. More importantly, it taught me that if you have a real passion for something in your life then it will stab you in the side like a toddler wanting an ice cream at the park until you make a rational move to change your perceptions.
Now all that is established and I feel ready to begin my blogging journey again, (about time!!)... I will leave you to explore my blog for as long or little as you wish until you maybe stumble upon something that interests your mind.
