Take time to talk


I haven't posted in 3 months, and whilst I have ideas of topics to write about I thought I'd take the time to just talk about my past months and my thoughts. Talking is important, and even if you're not necessarily getting a response, like this blog post, I don't know who it will reach and who will respond or if anyone even will respond. You need to just get things off your chest from time to time!

  So just a quick update on my life, for the past couple of months I have been trying to settle into my new uni house and get used to second year. And before I know it, I'm here in December and semester one is basically over! Honestly it has been a rollercoaster of emotions and I have been so busy and yet to get into a good routine. Time has flown by and I have failed at writing a blog post, as well as keeping on top of a million other things I need to do. However I realised it was important to get to a stage where I felt ready to post again and it wasn't just another chore I had to do along with everything else! I want to enjoy what I'm writing and put my all into it, not just post because I felt I had to.
 During this time I have also manged to get myself a part time job, which is good because I have an income and it takes away the stress of money, but it also adds stress to my life as my week is either uni or work! I'm working really hard to get a good balance of time for myself, work and to socialise.
 I've also had stress to do with where I'm going to be living in my third year at uni, my ideal situation was to stay in the house we have now, especially so I could possibly work over summer if I needed to but due to certain circumstances that isn't an option. Now the pressure and stress of finding a house for next year is on.
 It is now a few days after Christmas, a load of birthdays have also been and gone including my own and I have got to that point where I think I am on top of everything for now and can take some time for myself for once. I hope from now on to be posting more actively as I have a load of ideas I can't wait to work on! Stay tuned!

Unhealthy Friendships

I have been wanting to write this post for so long, it's such an important topic that no one seems to mention. We are quick to talk about unhealthy romantic relationships but often people forget the impact of unhealthy friendships. I wanted to share with you some of my experiences and what to look out for.

Tackling homesickness at University

Image
 Starting university is a scary thing, some people find it harder than others, especially if you're moving away from home for the first time. I started uni a year ago and honestly first year was probably the best year of my life so make the most of every moment! However I did sometimes feel extremely homesick and it is to be expected so don't be ashamed of it because those around you probably feel exactly the same even if they aren't showing it. One of the things that are really hard to do is have a good balance, you need to phone and visit home often in order to overcome your homesickness however too much of this can lead to you feeling even more homesick. Another thing is try and socialise and don't lock yourself away, sometimes it can be hard not to fall into the habit of locking yourself away in your room when you're feeling down. I went through a time of doing this and I honestly came to hate my room, it felt like a prison cell to me and all I wanted was to...
