GETTING STARTED IS MUCH HARDER THAN IT SEEMS

I have been meaning to begin my blog for several weeks now but have been actively putting it to the bottom of my 'to do list'. However on this very rainy, typically British summers evening I have decided to start. I find it awkward at first knowing how to fill this very large box with something unique and interesting to say about myself, but I guess the point is that I am quite ordinary. I'm currently working full time, saving for the year ahead back at university (which is one of my favourite places in the UK) where I know I will spend half of the money I save on alcohol and food, and the other half shopping. In June after I got back from an amazing holiday in Egypt, I was poorly and feeling sorry myself- in this time I began to think about what I wanted to progress to be after uni. This is when I started to get very anxious about the upcoming year back at Trent, I had a very forboding sense that Multimedia was not for me, from here I thought long and hard (for days on end) and discussed with my family what my options could be. I know I am a creative person, I adore colour and anything visual. Undoubtely my passion is fashion- (excuse the pun), anything to do with the design, to merchandising to the history behind a brand, and I knew I should do my best to follow this urge to achieve in this area. I have switched to Fashion Marketing and Branding, which has a balance of academic writing, business strategy's behind fashion companies and visuals. Over the next three years my blog will be a journal of my thoughts and depict a reflection of my time studying.. Although it seems as though I have taken a step back, I feel that in fact I have taken two leaps forward in the right direction... and I guess there is nothing wrong with becoming a fresher again.
