Hello Stranger!

Oh blog, I have missed you! It's one of the complexities of blogging- that when you have things to blog about, you're too busy doing the things to actually blog about it all- and I certainly have heaps to blog about, but absolutely no time in which to do it! However, I will keep posting whenever and wherever possible, just bear with me :)
Recently I've been doing LOTS of training- in community organising, in sexual health peer educating, in mental health campaigning, in using the record office and in LGBTQ+ campaigning. It's all been utterly fantastic- I've learnt a lot of good stuff which I'm looking forwards to putting into practice, and I've met some of the best people to both work with and be friends with!
As well as that, I've spent a lot of time with friends, which has been lovely. During half term I managed to go to the Playground Cafe three times, which made me pretty happy :) And there have been lots of weird and wonderful happenings besides that!
I need to head to dinner now, so ciao for now- but more soon, I promise! <3

Hello Strangers!

Hello! It would appear that I've done that thing again, wherein I disappear for ages and am just generally a VeryBadBlogger™. In my defence, I've been in France on holiday (though prosecution would like to point out that I did in fact have internet... We'll gloss over that one!). Anyway, I have come back rested, full of stories and ready to try much harder at not failing this blogging business. Yayayay! :)

Hello! It's me- remember, that blogger that doesn't blog much? I am super sorry for my appalling blogging recently. So much has happened, and I've been so busy, it's been kind of difficult to find time to eat/sleep/breathe, never mind note it all down. However, I'm hoping to use this week to update you all on my happenings recently. As a bit of a general update- exams finished, and life got even busier than it was with revision. I've been up to lots of social things, lots of 'work' things, lots of school work- it just hasn't stopped. Which is good for lots of reasons, and I'm really loving everything that's going on and feeling very happy. However, anxiety has been a bit of a difficulty recently- not that I'm letting it stop me, it's just making me even more tired than I would be, which means anxiety gets worse, which makes me more tired... It's a bit of a vicious cycle. However, I've got great hope that the summer holidays will mean I can get more sleep, and relax a bit more, and then things will all be okay :) Anyway, the exciting stuff I've been up to has been super exciting- recently I've been to London for Pride; had my first night out in Bristol; helped out at a charity gig; visited my dream university; done a day of work experience in London (and visited the Supreme Court!); and produced a project about serial killers that I was super pleased with (just about). So life is good!!
