Hi everyone, how are you doing? How has your day been? What is your week looking like? Let me know!

As always thankyou for your patience with me and my irregular blog posts. I really wish my life was more exciting at the moment but it really isn’t. I think you guys would get sick of me and my job hunting, which seems most blog posts at the moment are just that.

A quick update on that front, I am still unemployed… quite sad really. Anyway I did go back to visit people, where I had my gap year. It was really lovely, I had some great chats and went to my favourite cafe of last year for lunch. I ordered mac n cheese if you are wondering.

Being back really opened my eyes of how much I actually miss being there. I am not a fan of the city but the friends and support network I have there, it is just so good to know that even after three months, that they are still there for me.

I understand that might sound silly to some of you but in my past experiences, leaving or not coming along to something for a few weeks, always caused issues. I was honestly quite scared to come along, I was so nervous and worried that I barely slept. Looking back now I can see how ridiculous it was of me!

At the minute I am in the library pretending I am a university student, doing work. It is quite fun acting like I have a reason to be in here, I mean I do have a reason to be here (job applications) but I can’t help being curious as to what the real students around me are studying.

Is it a hard degree? Is it something that sounds impressive but actually isn’t?

Are they studying to become doctors? Lawyers? Teachers or finance? I guess I’ll never know unless I ask, that is a bit weird though so I won’t. I also really wish I brought a drink of water, I guess a headache is what you get for staying in bed to long and well, I’m just really thirsty!

While I am pretending to be a student, I also have my journal in front of me. My goal is to get all my thoughts out, I know I really should be doing job forms but I will be tomorrow, I’ve made that priority! Job hunting is hard and very tedious as I am sure you can imagine/have experienced.

I miss having routine and being in the academy bubble… I kind of miss studying to which, I never thought I would admit! I wonder what I would pick to study? Maybe Theology? I couldn’t imagine ever being a theology student to be honest, I don’t think I have the brain power for that!

I have no idea what this blog is about but oh well, hope you enjoyed!
